127 W 96th Street #8F

Immaculate prewar residence near Central and Riverside Parks! This beautiful 1 bedroom 1 bath co-op has undergone a complete, substantial and detailed renovation within and behind its walls. Updated electric, new plumbing, custom ceiling light fixtures and restoration of the original 1920s tin door frames and door knobs are among the list of special features. Done in careful consideration of the building's distinctive prewar character, the upgrades meld classic prewar elements with sleek modern finishes as found in the impeccable windowed chef's kitchen with granite counters, mini-tile glass backsplash, Italian ceramic tile floors, solid wood custom-crafted cabinetry and stainless steel appliances, including a dishwasher. The kitchen also offers ample room for a dining table or an office area. The windowed bath was recreated with a wall-mounted faucet with stone details, Kohler fixtures and a tempered glass-encased shower with a temperature stabilized thermostatic control. Adding to the allure is a gracious entry foyer, arched doorways, high beamed ceilings, abundant closet space and north and west exposures from oversized windows. The large living room, with a separate dining area (currently with a table that seats 14), is perfect for entertaining and can comfortably accommodate an overnight guest or is an easy conversion to a second bedroom. Retire to the spacious corner bedroom for a quiet night's sleep. Built in 1927 and renovated in 2004, 127 West 96th Street is a secure, full-service building with an attentive 24-hour doorman and live-in super. Amenities include a laundry room with new machines, common garden area with WiFi, bike storage room and storage room with bins. The location is prime, with great markets like Whole Foods, fine restaurants such as Buceo 95 and Gennaro, gyms, theaters, nightlife, conveniences and multiple modes of public transportation all nearby. Pets are allowed.
