Description

Imagine coming home to a place that feels like a country club—welcome to Skyview on the Hudson. This 23-acre community sits just 12 miles north of Midtown Manhattan, surrounded by beautiful landscaping and incredible Hudson River views. The apartment itself is a gem: a freshly renovated 2-bed, 1-bath with a spacious layout and a large terrace where you can kick back and watch the sunset over the Hudson and the Palisades. Inside, you’ll find a bright living room with a chic boutique hotel-like wallpapered wall and proper dining area, a separate windowed kitchen with stone counters, stainless steel appliances, and a brand-new fridge—plus enough space actually to sit and enjoy the fruits of your cooking labor. The floors are gorgeous throughout, the primary bedroom has a whole wall of custom California Closets, and the second bedroom is roomy as well. Even the bathroom has been updated and feels fresh. And good news—washer/dryers are now allowed with board approval!

Life at Skyview is packed with perks. Your maintenance covers cooking gas, heat, hot water, real estate taxes, and an awe-inspiring list of amenities: an Olympic-size pool, a kiddie pool, a modern gym, two night-lit tennis courts, a gazebo with grills, a new playground, a half basketball court, and a vast new two-level dog park. Electricity comes at a discounted rate, and there’s even a café open all year in the Sky Club. The cable/ Internet package is $78 per month.

Getting around is easy, too. Buses to the 1, 4, and A trains are nearby, along with express buses to Midtown. There’s also the Skyview Shuttle, which takes you to the Riverdale Metro-North station during the week and to local shopping on weekends. And speaking of convenience, the Skyview Shopping Center— excellent restaurants, wine bars, coffee shops, shops, services, Riverdale Y, and more—is just a few blocks away on Riverdale and Mosholu Avenues. Schools like Mount St. Vincent College, SAR High School, and PS 81 are close, and Van Cortlandt Park is only five blocks from your door, offering everything from hiking trails and a golf course to a riding stable and a huge double dog park.

Skyview really gives you the best of both worlds: a peaceful, amenity-filled escape with fast access to the city. It’s a place that’s easy to fall in love with and is genuinely the "Emerald City" of NYC!!
