A
stunning Beaux-Arts mansion on New York's Upper West Side has hit the market for $55 million, down from its initial asking price of $65 million in 2022. The 34-foot-wide property at 25 Riverside Drive boasts a rich history and opulent design.
The seller is a trust benefiting Dina Wein Reis, a convicted scammer known as "the $100 million woman," who purchased the mansion with her husband David for $2.15 million in 1996. The interior of the residence features eye-catching design, including multiple fireplaces, oversized windows with tree views, and a staircase connecting the levels.
The seven-story stunner spans 12,000 square feet, with eight bedrooms, three kitchens, and copper sinks. Original details include coffered cork-lined ceilings, stained-glass doors and windows from Tiffany & Co. and John La Farge, and a fourth-floor study. Additional features include a glass conservatory, a roof terrace that can seat 100 people for dinner, an elevator, and outdoor entertaining areas.
The mansion was renovated in recent years and boasts breathtaking style throughout its interior. The property also includes a gym, a mahogany theater, and a wine cellar, as well as terraces with Hudson River views and a garden with pear trees. Designed by Gilded Age architect C.P.H. Gilbert, the historic home was built between 1895 and 1897.
The listing brokers are Loy Carlos and Kenneth J. Moore of Nest Seekers International. With its rich history, opulent design, and stunning features, this mansion is a rare find in New York City's Upper West Side.
