Welcome to Apartment 9B at the highly coveted, 49 East 96th Street cooperative. This pristine, two bedroom, two bathroom apartment has undergone a complete renovation and is in immaculate condition. This lofted layout is unique not only to the building, but also to the Upper East Side. Very rarely will you be able to find such a magnificent sunken living room boasting 13 foot ceilings and large sun-flooded windows. The stunning oak staircase gracefully leads you up to a separate dining area that overlooks the living room. Off to the right, you are drawn into a large, renovated, windowed kitchen. Here you will find caesarstone countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a beautiful Carerra marble backsplash. This fully functional kitchen offers plenty of storage space, making it the perfect sanctuary for those who love to cook and entertain. The two generously sized bedrooms are located in a separate wing of the apartment. The primary bedroom features two large closets, one of which holds a combination W/D unit and an en-suite bathroom. The oversized second bedroom includes both a sizable customized wall closet along with a windowed home office space that can be used flexibly to fit your personal needs. The nicely renovated second bathroom has been finished with Calacutta marble and is equipped with its own window and bathtub. The home also includes an elegant entry foyer with a marble top built-in, two coat closets, added storage under the living room staircase, brand new window AC units and a storage cage that trades with the apartment. 49 East 96th Street is a full-service, Art Deco co-op located just one block away from Central Park.
