Description

Charming and Surprisingly Spacious Home This simple façade opens up into spacious, sunny, 3-4 bedroom home with 3 full baths, a great deck, and a level back yard with an organic vegetable garden. Walk right in to a tiled entry foyer with convenient coat closet. A comfortable living room faces south, and three large windows bring in lots of light. The renovated kitchen was combined with the dining room to create a great space for living—set up the dining area with table and chairs, or create a work and play area with desks, shelves, toys and games. There are sliding doors out to a large deck with room for outdoor dining and a barbecue. The master bedroom has an en-suite bath, while 2 additional bedrooms share a hall bath. Newly refinished oak floors add a touch of luxury throughout. The lower level of the house boasts a huge family room with a wet bar and handsome wood-burning fireplace. There is a laundry and mechanical room, a full bath, a bedroom or office, and a storage room that is already plumbed for a kitchen, should you have reason for an in-law apartment. Two doors lead directly out to the terrific garden with a pear tree and a storage shed. The level grassy area is ideal for throwing a football or a Frisbee. Or set up a net for volleyball! Perhaps most interesting, the large property (basically the size of two lots) affords the house FAR if you would like to expand. Conveniently located near schools, stores, houses of worship and transportation. Close to busses, Metro North, the subway and highways. Location, location, location! Come see what Riverdale has to offer.

Riverdale is an established and verdant neighborhood that offers some of the most impressive natural beauty in New York City. Perched on a ridge overlooking the Hudson River, the area is famous for its grand estates, historic mansions, and lush parks. The real estate market is remarkably varied, featuring everything from palatial single-family homes in Fieldston to luxury high-rise cooperatives and condominiums that offer a tranquil, park-like setting just minutes from Manhattan.
