A condo with space, luxury, convenience and amenities galore

The Waterford, at 3816 Waldo Ave. in central Riverdale, was conceived as something different. At the turn of the 21st century, builders were reaching for height and glitz. The Waterford’s builders went in the other direction, creating a seven-story boutique condominium with quiet elegance. 

Each floor has just four three-bedroom, two-bath units, but that doesn’t mean the builders eschewed the amenities available in much larger buildings.

Every high-ceilinged apartment has its own washer and dryer and a private balcony. Each is centrally air-conditioned. The master bathrooms have granite-topped vanities, whirlpool soaking tubs and separate glass-enclosed showers. Apartments have Brazilian cherry wood floors and they are pre-wired for cable, high-speed internet and multiple phone lines.

The pet-friendly building offers a well-equipped fitness room, a library/lounge, a recreation room, a part-time doorman and copious storage. 

Apartment 3A has a kitchen outfitted with granite countertops, cherry wood cabinetry,  under-cabinet lighting and stainless steel appliances, and it comes with deeded on-site indoor parking.

Shopping and entertainment are just steps away on West 238th Street and Riverdale Avenue as are express buses, the IRT No. 1 line, jitneys to Metro-North, schools and houses of worship.

According to Joan Kuzniar of Robert E. Hill, Inc., the apartment is listed at $590,000, with monthly maintenance charges of $950.00.
