Description
Situated on the 15th floor, this meticulously re-imagined classic 7 into 6 embodies the quintessential charm of a Rosaria Candela prewar cooperative, seamlessly fused with contemporary updates tailored for modern living. Upon entering the apartment, the large foyer leads into an expansive living room illuminated with natural light, showcasing a wood-burning fireplace. The generously sized dining room has been ingeniously re-purposed into a den. The large eat-in kitchen has all that a chef could want, boasting top-of-the-line appliances including two ovens, a warming oven, six-burner stove-top, a microwave/ convection oven, Sub-Zero refrigerator, and dishwasher along with an additional dishwasher and wine refrigerator in the butler's pantry. The primary bedroom provides plentiful storage and an en-suite bathroom. The second and third bedrooms offer ample closet space and share a well-appointed jack-and-jill bathroom. Added conveniences include an in-unit washer dryer, a dedicated private storage unit and through the wall airconditioning throughout. Originally constructed in 1929 and designed by Rosario Candela, 70 East 96th Street stands as a full-service cooperative in the esteemed Carnegie Hill neighborhood. Residents benefit from a 24-hour doorman, live-in superintendent, multiple porters, bike room, laundry facilities, and storage. The cooperative permits up to 60% financing and has a 2.5% flip tax. Pets are welcomed.
