efore the stately arch of the Henry Hudson Bridge connected Spuyten Duyvil to the hills of Inwood, before the Henry Hudson Parkway snaked through the middle of Riverdale, before Johnson Avenue had a shopping area or Seton was the name of a park, there was Linden House. Built in 1930, at 3001 Henry Hudson Parkway — it was Spuyten Duyvil Parkway then — it was one of the community’s first apartment houses and it is still one of its most sought-after, pet-friendly addresses — for its landscaped front garden, part-time doorman service and private tennis court as well as its commodious apartments and its convenience to schools, parks and transportation. North-facing, top-floor, one-bedroom
Elegant, glassenclosed shower.
apartment 6L exemplifies its appeal — with its sunken living room, herringbone oak flooring, nine-foot ceilings, wrought iron balustrades, copious closets and art deco casement windows. In addition, the current owners have fully renovated the kitchen and bathroom and created a space for sewing, crafts or a home office. The windowed kitchen features stainless steel appliances, dark hardwood cabinetry, granite countertops and stone tile back splashes. The sparkling bathroom has a glassenclosed tub and new fixtures. According to exclusive broker Edward Meltser of Goodman Management Co., Inc., the asking price is $269,000 and monthly maintenance is $797.02.
The tennis court is nestled beside the building.
