7 West 96th Street #8A

Enter into this fully renovated prewar full service classic 6 room home that has been redesigned for today's lifestyle. The staff room has been combined with the kitchen to make a kitchen that is truly a cook's delight. The formal dining room has been divided to make a third bedroom (which opens into the bedroom wing) and a generous dining area (easily seats 8-10 people) that sits right outside the kitchen. The living room faces south with open city views. There are beautiful built-in bookshelves and storage on either side of the living room window and there is a lovely decorative fireplace mantle that gives the living room a focal point. The large cook's kitchen has a deep copper sink and custom wood cabinetry with tons of storage with granite counters. The appliances include a 6 burner Professional Series Viking range with hood (vented to the outside) and microwave, Miele refrigerator/freezer and dishwasher and the all too important wine fridge! There is also a butler's pantry with a copper bar sink which makes entertaining a breeze. The master bedroom has southern exposure with sunshine pouring in all day. There is custom wood cabinetry for abundant storage and a walk in closet as well as an en-suite bathroom. Two additional bedrooms included in the bedroom wing that is separated from the public space with a French door. There is beautiful walnut stained hardwood floors throughout most of the apartment as well as skim coated walls, through wall A/C and the apartment is wired with speakers in most rooms. All of the 2.5 bathrooms have been lovingly renovated with attention to detail-including marble, granite and mosaic detailing, Zuma soaking tubs with glass enclosures. Don't forget a private washer/dryer! 7 West 96th Street has a fabulous roof deck with tables/chairs and lounges with views of Central Park---great place to enjoy morning coffee or sunset cocktails! Other amenities include storage, bike room, laundry room and a live in superintendent as well as a 24 hour doorman.
