About Us
Country Club Ridge is
located on East Hartsdale Avenue and the north and south
sides of
Rockledge Road in
Hartsdale,
Westchester County, New York. The location of the
property is in itself,
unique. The property is bordered on one side by the Scarsdale town line and on two
other sides by the
principal Hartsdale shopping area and the
Metro North railroad station, both on the perimeter of the
property.
It is significant that residents of Country
Club Ridge need no automobile transportation, public or private, for
immediate
access to shopping or the railroad to downtown New York City. Due to a
slight rise in terrain and an
abundance of foliage, neither the business
district nor the railroad station encroach upon or obstruct views from
the
property.
The co-op is garden-style spread out over 15
acres. The 19 buildings, which were constructed in 1947,
contain 248
residential apartments. There are lawn courtyard areas throughout the
complex, which have
been landscaped and are maintained by CCR's gardeners.
Residents can garden, set up barbecue grills and
picnic tables in front of their
homes, or just relax in their lounge chairs and enjoy the beautiful surroundings
during the spring, summer, and fall seasons.
There are two main playgrounds on the property as well as a small playground
within the pool area. The pool measures from 2' to 12' deep. The complex has 13 laundry
rooms, free outdoor parking, a main indoor garage which accommodates 62 cars, 25
private garages and many storage rooms, some of which have private storage
cages.
Access to the apartments vary. Some
apartments are accessed directly from the sidewalks and others through
a common
doorway and interior stairway to the second floor apartments. The
apartments range in size from
studios to 3 bedrooms,
2 baths. Some
apartments have sunken living rooms, terraces, patios, and a few have
fireplaces. The apartment breakdown is as follows:
