Description

This extremely spacious 3 bedroom apartment (formally 2 bedrooms with an enormous dining room) occupies the southwest corner of The Normandy, a prestigious Art Deco co-op on Riverside Drive at 86th Street. There are beautiful views of Riverside Park and/or the surrounding architecturally significant buildings from all windows. All rooms have wonderful light and views and are large and well proportioned. The windowed kitchen features a separate butler's pantry with a washer and dryer and the grand entry foyer has a large closet presently used as a bar.

The apartment is offered in estate condition and, although it requires renovation, bestows the handsome characteristics for which Emery Roth designed buildings are famous for. There are original casement windows, high ceilings, beautiful hardwood floors, and other period details throughout.

The building is a well run, full service, doorman building featuring a gym, roof deck, landscaped courtyard and a, soon to be completed, newly renovated lobby. Pets permitted and 75% financing is allowed. Showings by appointment.
