MINT TOP-FLOOR CORNER HOME WITH LOFT-LIKE LIVING & SPECTACULAR HUDSON RIVER VIEWS
A rare combination of light, space, architectural character, and extraordinary views, this mint-condition top-floor corner home offers a distinctive loft-like living experience overlooking the Hudson River and Palisades. Five over-sized windows capture sweeping west-facing vistas and spectacular sunsets, while seven over-sized windows and soaring 10-foot ceilings fill the home with natural light.
Maple hardwood floors provide a warm contrast to the exposed concrete block ceilings, creating an effortlessly sophisticated aesthetic. The expansive living room features an exceptionally large custom built-in closet, while a flexible bonus room enclosed by French doors offers an elegant solution for a dining area, private home office, or additional living space.
At the heart of the home is a dramatic chef's kitchen designed to impress. Backlit European cherry wood cabinetry with glass fronts is paired with custom marble counter tops and a striking marble backsplash that extends to the ceiling. The stainless steel appliance package includes a Sub-Zero refrigerator with two freezer drawers, Frigidaire five-burner range with glass hood, Miele dishwasher, and Viking wine cooler.
The beautifully updated bathroom features classic subway tile, tiled flooring, custom mirrored cabinetry, a low-flow toilet, and a relaxing soaking tub with glass-enclosed shower.
The windowed bedroom offers a peaceful retreat with thoughtfully designed storage, including a generous closet with additional storage above. All seven windows are outfitted with light-filtering, energy-efficient remote-controlled blinds, which will remain with the home.
This well-maintained, pet-friendly co-op features a live-in superintendent, central laundry room, and bicycle storage. Co-purchasing is permitted, and pied-à-terre ownership is considered on a case-by-case basis.
Ideally situated by the A train, M4 and M98 express buses, Fort Tryon Park, The Cloisters, neighborhood shopping, and restaurants, this home combines serene riverfront vistas with convenient city living.
