131 RIVERSIDE Drive #10D

Great Classic Six with open river view! One enters the apartment through a large foyer, where ten-foot ceilings and a parquet floor set a pattern that continues throughout. Past the foyer, the long hallway leads to the first bedroom, large in size, with built-in floor-to-ceiling cabinets and bookshelves. The two closets, like the others in the house, include shelves that take advantage of the full ceiling height. The second bedroom, also to the right of the hallway, is nicely sized and offers a large closet as well as a double closet. Both bedrooms sit on either side of the main bathroom, which is windowed. Farther along, a utility closet can be accessed where the hall ends in a second foyer. This gives entry to the kitchen and the third bedroom. The ample kitchen, with pantry closet and large window, is spacious enough for a kitchen table.Beyond the second foyer awaits the "piece de resistance;" an open dining room flows into the living room, with five tall windows offer stunning southern light and a view of the Hudson River. Throughout the day, this double space is filled with light, quiet, and airiness. In the afternoon, the sun glimmers off the river, then fades into a panoramic sunset view. The dining room's non-working fireplace, set in a marble frame, is flanked by classic pillars and topped with a broad mantelpiece. Taken together, this is a one-of-a-kind apartment in a one-of-a-kind building.
