480 Riverdale Ave

A midcentury seven-story cooperative built in 1958, this low-rise residential property contains primarily two- and three-bedroom homes arranged around a central circulation core with elevator access. Exterior finishes reflect modest postwar design with a planted courtyard and maintained common grounds including a communal mailbox area and outdoor patio space. Interiors are varied by unit: many residences feature eat-in kitchens, formal dining areas, entrance foyers, chandeliers or ceiling fans, and original hardwood or parquet floors; larger units include primary bedrooms on the main level and en-suite baths with walk-in closets. Shared building conveniences emphasize everyday living: an on-site laundry room, community room, exercise room/gym, storage and a staffed or camera-monitored lobby for security. Parking is available but managed via waitlist with both indoor and outdoor options at times; the co-op maintains a pet-permitting policy and standard board application and income guidelines for buyers, with some sponsor-owned units sold with different approval terms. Located near the Yonkers–Riverdale border, the property sits within walking distance of Metro-North Ludlow station, multiple bus routes to the Bronx and Manhattan, neighborhood shops, schools and planned waterfront redevelopment, making for an urban-suburban lifestyle with commuter convenience.
