Incredibly Low Maintenance!
Nestled just one block from Central Park, Residence 4B at 49 East 96th Street is a warm and inviting two-bedroom home that seamlessly blends prewar character with everyday livability.
A gracious entry foyer with generous closet space sets the tone, opening into a well-proportioned living and dining area, where beautifully integrated built-ins add architectural interest and thoughtful storage, creating a space that feels both comfortable and functional. Classic details throughout include hardwood floors, beamed ceilings, and a decorative fireplace that anchors the space.
The windowed kitchen is thoughtfully designed with granite countertops, custom cabinetry, and a suite of high-end appliances. It offers a practical layout for daily use, with space for barstool seating and a casual eat-in option alongside the formal dining area.
Both bedrooms enjoy dual exposures, with the primary offering generous proportions, a large walk-in closet, and easy access to a windowed marble bathroom complete with a tub. The second bedroom is well-positioned off the living room, offering both privacy and flexibility for guests, a home office, or den.
49 East 96th Street is a full-service, Art Deco cooperative designed by noted architect Thomas W. Lamb, ideally situated in the heart of Carnegie Hill. Residents enjoy a 24-hour doorman, live-in superintendent, bike storage, laundry, private storage, and a recently renovated, windowed fitness room.
