A spacious entry foyer leads to an oversized 22-foot living room with expansive casement windows and a wood-burning fireplace. Just beyond, the beautifully renovated eat-in kitchen features two windows with open-sky views, custom cabinetry, new stainless steel appliances, and abundant pantry storage. The dual-exposure primary bedroom offers natural light and ample closets. The second bedroom is also generously proportioned and offers a double hanging closet and its own en-suite bath. The Abbey at 166 East 96th Street is a well-maintained boutique cooperative offering a part-time doorman, live-in superintendent, central laundry, bike storage, and private storage (subject to availability). Ideally situated near Central Park, Museum Mile, neighborhood restaurants and cafés, gourmet markets, and multiple subway and bus lines, the building offers exceptional convenience in one of Manhattan's most desirable neighborhoods.
