Transcendent Park & River views south and west from the sunny rooms of Apt 8D have charmed the locals for centuries. The indigenous Lenape once occupied this promontory overlooking a river they called Muhheakantuck well before Henry Hudson sailed in. And the architect of 340 RSD, the building now standing on the spot, raised it above its peers by providing only grand scale classic 6 and 5 room apartments which are the finest available in their class. Filled with all day sun, a splendid living room surveys the Hudson, two remarkable mansions and verdant Riverside Park though enormous windows. An impressive formal dining room, easily convertible to a 3rd bedroom (see the included 3 BR option) is adjacent to the living room. The well-designed dine in kitchen, a chef's delight, receives eastern morning light. In a separate wing reside two sizable bedrooms, the primary with an ensuite bath and lovely views like the living room's. The second bedroom looks over a serene, historic skyline to the north. Closets are abundant, ceilings soar and the handsome herring bone floors are composed of elegant white and red oak. One could move right in if that's the plan. Built in 1926, 340 RSD has 24-hour doorman service, a live-in resident manager, a bike room, bin storage when available and a laundry for its well-tended shareholders. 75 percent financing and pieds a terre are allowed, pets welcome, and the 3 percent Flip Tax is paid by the seller. Cutting edge dining, shopping, and transportation are minutes away. T The building anchors a landmark block, one of three in a row, featuring an array of splendid fin de siecle townhouses named the Seven Beauties and perhaps the grandest, stand-alone stately home in Manhattan with its own moat. D. J. Wakin whose recent book details the history of the area writes,Being there conveyed a sense of arriving. Both virtually staged and existing images of the apartment are included. Showings will begin after 3/12/2025
