Description

Shown by appointment only. This Classic-7 home that can easily convert to a true 4 bedroom home is where you can have grandeur living just steps from Central Park and in the historic neighborhood of Carnegie Hill. The layout is maximized for space and value with one side of the home featuring a massive living room with a wood burning fireplace, formal dining room, and maid's room that functions as a home office with a half bath. The dinning room and powder room can easily convert to a large primary bedroom with larger ensuite bath. The kitchen offers ample room with a small eat-in nook without compromising on storage or counter top space. The 3 oversized bedrooms are tucked away with their own distinct privacy and ample storage. The home has great pre-war charm and details throughout and much more: 10 ft ceilings, beautiful hardwood floors, 15 windows, in-unit washer and dryer, and pin-drop quiet. 8 East 96th Street is a full-service prewar co-op with private storage, bike room, additional laundry facilities, and pet friendly.
