VIEWS! VIEWS! VIEWS! Move right into this stunning sun-flooded prewar renovated Classic 6 home with SPECTACULAR unobstructed views of Riverside Park and the Hudson River and exceptionally LOW MAINTENANCE. The elevator opens to semi-private landing leading to an elegant foyer. As one enters the apartment one is struck by the Old World grandeur in this spacious 3 bedroom home with its soaring 10’ ceilings and impressive prewar details including inlaid herringbone floors, dentil moldings, and wainscoting, which have been painstakingly preserved by the current owners.

The gracious living room offers breathtaking views of the park and river which are magnificent by both day and night, especially at sunset. The large primary bedroom with two closets is pin drop quiet and the second bedroom which faces the river is currently configured as a wonderfully inviting den with a stunning glass windowed wall, but could easily be converted back to a bedroom or if not needed, one could make an exceptionally large waterfront living room with expansive windows facing the river. These two bedrooms currently share a sizable full bathroom with a large glass shower, tub and linen closet.

An additional bathroom could be added with board approval and has been done previously in this line. The elegant dining room is large, ideal for entertaining and offers views of the river. Off the dining room is the renovated kitchen with ample storage and counter space.

Behind the kitchen is the third bedroom, which could also function as an ideal home office, and a full bathroom. 258 Riverside Drive - The Peter Stuyvesant - was built in 1908 by noted architect William Rouse in the Renaissance Revival Style and developed by James T.
