vacation rental description
This lovely, 2-bedroom "au pair" apartment is located in our single
family home in the upscale, peaceful Riverdale neighborhood in the
Bronx. Riverdale borders Manhattan and Westchester County and has
more trees per square mile than any other section of New York City.
The apartment has a private entrance off of our back garden (which
you are free to share with our family and dog). Ample on- and off-street parking exists.
The master bedroom has a comfortable queen-sized bed and an
enormous closet. The second bedroom has a single-sized daybed with
a second trundle bed beneath. In addition, the living room sofa
pulls out into another queen-sized bed.
