Description
Apt. 8/9E is the Carnegie Hill home that you have been waiting for! Sun filled and perched on the 8th and 9th floors of an impeccably run pre-war cooperative, offering nearly 2,000 sf, this 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath duplex has it all!
A handsome marble entry gallery featuring a distinguished custom-built iron staircase welcomes you home. Pass through an arched doorway into the sun drenched ~ 24ft x 15ft living room which features beautiful hardwood floors, crown moldings, beamed ceilings, and incredible space large enough to accommodate several seating areas and display your art collection. Glass French doors seamlessly connect to a very generous rectangular dining room which features custom built-in shelving and three oversized windows facing west over 96th Street. The marble windowed kitchen with a breakfast bar is outfitted with stainless steel appliances, has a washer/dryer, and connects to large separate pantry with a sink and exceptional storage. All six west-facing oversized windows on this level offer fabulous light and views over 96th Street and Madison Avenue and have tasteful marble ledges. This floor is conveniently rounded out with an elegant marble half bath tucked away, as well as two enormous closets.
At the top of the stairs to the 9th floor bedroom level is an elegant and generous landing gallery with a separate entrance convenient for returning from vacation with luggage. The house-like separation of this bedroom level is unique for its privacy, space, and quiet enjoyment. There is flexibility as to which bedroom is utilized as the primary bedroom as two of them are appropriately sized, offer ensuite bathrooms and enjoy bountiful closet space and western light. The third bedroom is utilized as a guest room (with a built-in retracting daybed) and home office and boasts an ensuite renovated bathroom. Distinctive and to be desired pre-war details throughout this home include hardwood flooring, beamed ceilings and crown moldings.
49 East 96th Street is an elegant and impeccably run full-service historic cooperative in the Carnegie Hill Historic District on the Upper East Side. This location is extraordinary, just 2 blocks to Central Park, close proximity to some of the best schools, a plethora of restaurants, coffee shops, supermarkets, and subway and bus transportation. And, just moments from some of the finest cultural institutions in the world such as the Guggenheim Museum, the Cooper Hewitt Museum and the Metropolitan Museum. The building features a 24-hour doorman, a resident manager and its amenities include an exercise studio with a Peloton bike, a bicycle storage room, and basement storage (for a nominal fee). Finally, this beautiful home has one of the lowest maintenance charges (for this square footage) on the Upper East Side! There is a 2% flip tax payable by the purchaser.
