Listing Notes
The New Children's Museum of Manhattan coming down the block! Bright and mint 3 bedroom PLUS 4th bedroom/ office right off Central Park! Step into a gracious entry foyer with a large coat closet and immediately you are impressed by charming pre-war details including high, beamed ceilings and beautiful hardwood floors. The foyer leads to the spacious and wide living room, which gets wonderful light from the three windows facing over double wide 96th Street. The massive dining room is an entertainer's dream, large enough to host huge dinners or use the space as both a dining room and a den. The wonderfully renovated, windowed eat-in chef's kitchen boasts a large eating area, a 6 burner Wolf range, Subzero refrigerator, Miele dishwasher, washer/dryer, and tons of storage space. It gets great Eastern light too! Nicely separated from the living area, the bedroom wing boasts three bedrooms that get nice light all day facing across 96th Street. The sumptuous primary suite features 4 very large closets and an en-suite, windowed bathroom with a double vanity and large glass shower. Both of the spacious secondary bedrooms have large closets and share a renovated, connecting bathroom. The staff room, perfectly located off the dining room (not behind the kitchen!) is great as either an office or guest bedroom, with a built-in desk and storage space as well as a full size en-suite bathroom. This amazing home has through the wall air conditioning throughout and is bright and tranquil too! 50 West 96th Street is a wonderfully maintained pre-war cooperative that features a 24-hour doorman and live-in resident manager. Additional amenities include a lovely roof deck, central laundry room, and bike storage (when available). Ideally located on a Central Park block and close to two great subway lines and multiple bus lines, as well as minutes away from Whole Foods and other great shops and restaurants! Please note there is an assessment in the amount of $190.72 per month. Pets are allowed as is 75% financing. Please call for a private appointment!
