Property Details
Description
Residence 7C at 8 East 96th Street is a beautifully proportioned Classic Seven in the heart of Carnegie Hill, just moments from Fifth Avenue and Central Park.
Spanning approximately 1,800 square feet, this refined prewar home offers 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a formal dining room, and a spacious eat-in kitchen with a breakfast room and built-in banquette.
A gracious entry gallery leads to an expansive, sunlit living room over 21 feet in length with a wood-burning fireplace-ideal for both entertaining and everyday living. The layout offers excellent flexibility as the formal dining room can easily convert to a fourth bedroom, primary suite with en-suite bath, or den + home office. Alternate floorplans reflect actual C-line configurations in the building.
A renovated Poggenpohl kitchen provides abundant storage and flows seamlessly into the breakfast area, while a concealed in-unit washer/dryer adds convenience. Three bedrooms are set within a private wing, offering separation from the main living spaces.
Rich in pre-war detail, the residence is defined by soaring 9' ceilings, beautifully scaled rooms, abundant closet space, and beautiful hardwood floors throughout. The home is exceptionally quiet and is in pristine, turkey condition.
8 East 96th Street is a distinguished Rosario Candela cooperative dating to 1928. Residents enjoy a full-time doorman, resident manager, storage, and bike room. Pet-friendly. Up to 50% financing permitted. 2% flip tax payable by buyer.
This is classic Upper East Side living at its finest.
