Description

190 Riverside Drive is a striking and unique prewar condominium located on the north corner of West 91st Street—a quiet stretch of Riverside Drive just above the Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Memorial. Built in 1909 in the Neo-Renaissance style, the building features a rusticated limestone base and a graceful rhythm of bay windows across its 11-story facade. Converted to a white-glove condominium in 1996, it remains one of the most distinctive buildings on Riverside Drive. Residence 4C is a rare offering: an expansive, 3,536-square-foot home filled with beautifully preserved and restored original details. These include ornate coffered ceilings, decorative plasterwork, intricate moldings, solid wood pocket doors, inlaid hardwood floors, and original wood-paneled living and dining rooms—each with a decorative fireplace. Oversized west-facing windows frame breathtaking views of Riverside Park and the Hudson River. This grandly proportioned 9-room home includes 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, with a flexible layout ideal for both gracious entertaining and comfortable living. The corner living room opens seamlessly into a glorious formal dining room, while a den/music room offers a versatile space for gatherings. The chef’s eat-in kitchen features top-tier appliances and a charming breakfast nook with park views. A spacious primary suite includes its own decorative fireplace, park views, and a luxurious en-suite bath. Central air and an in-unit laundry room add to the home’s modern comforts. 190 Riverside Drive is a boutique, pet-friendly condominium offering a full-time doorman, garage, fitness room, storage, bike room, and an excellent live-in superintendent. Perfectly situated near transportation, fine dining, and cultural destinations, this exceptional residence is moments away from the best of the Upper West Side. A truly special home—this is a must-see. Listing courtesy of Sothebys International Realty ...
