190 Fordham Street #11 Bronx, NY 10464

Nautical Winds Condominium, at 190 Fordham Road, is comprised of 16 units, ranging from one to three bedrooms in a gated community. The front of the property is landmarked and houses the City Island Nautical Museum. The museum is one of two commercial leases, the other is to a small community center on the basement level. The commercial units are controlled separately by the sponsor who developed the building in the 1990's. The building is an old school building constructed in the late 1800s. As it is on the most elevated part of the island, it is not in a flood zone, and does not require flood insurance. Take a ride in the extra-large elevator to Unit 11, one of the largest in the property. A stunning penthouse duplex with 11' ceilings. On the Penthouse level you will find the living areas, renovated kitchen, powder room and twin terraces. The lower floor contains the three bedrooms, two baths, laundry and utility closet and an abundant storage area. Each bedroom has three to four large storage closets (each about 3 to 5 feet wide, 2.5-3 feet deep, and 4 feet high) above the built-in wardrobes.
