5620 Netherland Ave

Netherland Gardens is a mid-century, six-story cooperative complex built in 1949 and arranged around landscaped grounds and garden beds. The property is composed primarily of one-bedroom units (with occasional studios and two-bedroom layouts) featuring hardwood floors, eat-in or galley-style kitchens—some with islands or windowed cooking areas—and practical foyer or entry zones that provide separation between public and private spaces. Buildings are served by elevators and managed on-site with a live-in superintendent; shared interior resources include a laundry room, community room available for resident use, private storage areas, and card-operated laundry facilities. Exterior amenities emphasize private outdoor space and communal green areas: fenced playground, park-like plantings, benches and umbrellas, and several small private outdoor terraces under 60 square feet. Parking options are available both indoors (garage spaces) and outdoors on an assigned basis for a monthly fee. The coop enforces board approval, limits on debt-to-income ratios, and a cats-only pet policy; pied-à-terre and co-purchasing are permitted. Its Riverdale location places it within walking distance of express bus service to Manhattan, Metro-North commuter rail, neighborhood shopping and restaurants, parks such as Wave Hill and Van Cortlandt, and community resources like the Riverdale Y and local library.
