Bihirang magagamit! Ang sulok na yunit, Classic 7 na tahanan, ay pag-aari at maingat na inalagaan ng parehong pamilya sa loob ng halos 50 taon. Dakila at elegante, ang kahanga-hangang apartment na ito ay isa sa mga pinaka-nais na linya sa gusali at nag-aalok ng maliwanag, bukas na tanawin ng lungsod mula sa ika-16 na palapag.

Isang pormal na pasukan ang bumubukas sa isang magarang prewar na layout, na may magkabilang sala at dining room na may potensyal na pagsamahin, na nagiging isang malawak na malaking silid na may 4 na oversized na bintana na umaabot sa lapad nito. Ang mga klasikong prewar na detalye, kabilang ang hardwood herringbone na mga sahig at mataas, beam na kisame, ay nagdadala ng walang panahong kagandahan sa buong lugar. Ang bintanang kusina na may kainan ay ang kumbinasyon ng orihinal na kwarto ng katulong at orihinal na kusina, at nagtatampok ng stainless steel na mga gamit, kabilang ang may bentilasyon na kalan, maraming imbakan, at isang buong sukat na washing machine at may bentilasyon na pang-dryer. Napakalaki para sa mga pamantayan ng NYC, ang kusina ay pangarap ng bawat nagsasaing sa bahay na may napakaraming puwang at kahit na isang itinalagang pantry. Bagamat perpektong gumagana sa kasalukuyan nitong estado, maaari mo rin itong i-renovate upang lumikha ng tunay na kusina ng chef na iniakma ayon sa iyong mga pangangailangan.

Ang tatlong silid-tulugan ay matatagpuan sa isang hiwalay na pakpak ng apartment, na nagiging tahimik at pribado mula sa mga living area. Ang pangunahing silid-tulugan ay may napakalaking walk-in closet, dual exposures na nakaharap sa Silangan at Hilaga at kahanga-hangang tanawin na umaabot patungo sa East River at Triborough bridge. Ang ensuite na banyo ay may standing shower at pedestal sink. Sa kasalukuyan, ito ay ibinabahagi sa pangalawang silid-tulugan, ngunit madali itong maisasara at gawing pribado para sa pangunahing silid-tulugan.

Ang pangalawang silid-tulugan ay katabi ng pangunahing silid-tulugan at kasing laki ng pangunahing silid-tulugan, nagtatampok ng dalawang closet, at bukas na tanawin ng hilagang lungsod. Sa kabila ng pasilyo na may maliwanag at tahimik na timog na exposures, naroon ang pangatlong silid-tulugan. Ang pangalawang buong banyo ay katabi ng pangatlong silid-tulugan at nilagyan ng 6-paa na cast iron tub at pedestal sink. Parehong nasa mabuting (mostly) orihinal na kondisyon ang mga banyo.

Ang 12 West 96th Street ay isang maganda at maayos na pinapanatili na gusali na may magiliw at mapagmasid na tauhan, kabilang ang live-in superintendent at 24-oras na elevator operator - isa sa mga natitirang kaunti sa New York City. Kasama sa mga amenities ng gusali ang pribadong imbakan at imbakan ng bisikleta. Gustung-gusto ng mga may-ari ng bahay na nandiyan lamang ang Central Park sa labas ng kanilang pintuan at madaling ma-access ang maraming linya ng tren at mga bus. Tinatanggap ang mga alagang hayop! Sa kasalukuyan, mayroong isang halaga ng assessment na $231.88/buwan hanggang Marso 2030 upang bayaran ang modernisasyon ng elevator at upang punan ang reserve fund.

Rarely available! This corner unit, Classic 7 home, has been owned and lovingly maintained by the same family for nearly 50 years.  Grand and elegant, this impressive apartment is one of the most desirable lines in the building and offers bright, open city views from the 16th floor.    

A formal entry foyer opens into a gracious prewar layout, with side-by-side living and dining rooms that have the potential to be combined, making an expansive great room with 4 oversized windows spanning its width.  Classic prewar details, including hardwood herringbone floors and high, beamed ceilings, add timeless elegance throughout.  The windowed eat-in-kitchen is the combination of the original maids room with the original kitchen, and features stainless steel appliances, including a vented stove, plentiful storage, and a full-sized washer and vented dryer.   Incredibly large by NYC standards, the kitchen is every home cook's dream with tons of space and even a designated pantry.  While perfectly functional in its current state, you could also renovate to create a true chef's kitchen customized to your needs.   

The three bedrooms are located in a separate wing of the apartment, making them particularly quiet and private from the living areas.  The primary bedroom boasts a very large walk-in closet, dual exposures facing East and North and spectacular surprise view all the way to the East River and Triborough bridge.  The ensuite bathroom is appointed with a standing shower and a pedestal sink.  Currently shared with the second bedroom, it could easily be closed off and made private to the primary bedroom.  
The second bedroom is adjacent to the primary bedroom and is just as large as the primary bedroom, features two closets, and open, northern city views.  Across the hall with bright and quiet southern exposures, is the third bedroom.  The second full bathroom is adjacent to the third bedroom and is appointed with a 6-foot cast iron tub and pedestal sink.  Both bathrooms are in good (mostly) original condition.  

12 West 96th Street is a beautifully maintained building with a friendly and attentive staff, including a live-in superintendent and 24-hour elevator operator - one of the few remaining in New York City.  Building amenities including private storage and bike storage.  Homeowners love having Central Park just outside their door and easy access to multiple train lines and buses.  Pets are welcome!  There is currently an assessment in the amount of $231.88/month through 3/2030 to pay for elevator modernization and to replenish the reserve fund.
