An expansive entry foyer with hanging closets opens into a gracious and functional layout where classic pre-war details and old-world charm abound. High ceilings, large scaled rooms and enviable light create a home with a remarkable sense of volume and airiness. An arched doorway ushers you into a bright, oversized living room featuring beamed ceilings, original built ins and peaks of Central Park, a room which will easily accommodate all of your furnishings and serves as an inviting space for entertaining and everyday living. A separate windowed dining room with original hardwood floors and giant walk in storage closet is flanked off the living room and will be an excellent complement for family dinners and gatherings. There is an adjacent original windowed eat in kitchen with potential for expansion into the original half bathroom (now current pantry) and a washer/dryer can also be added with board approval. Both bedrooms are grand in proportion and are ideally tucked off a side hallway. The king sized corner primary bedroom boasts three oversized windows, one of which is an eastern facing window with direct views of Central Park and features a large walk in closet and a windowed en-suite primary bathroom. A similarly sized south facing secondary bedroom features original hardwood floors and hanging closet and a second full bath completes this home. Endless possibilities await as this sale presents a rare opportunity for a discerning buyer to reimagine and transform a classic pre-war residence into a dream home in one of the Upper West Sides most coveted locations. 12 West 96th Street is a well-run, pet friendly co-op building with a 24-hour elevator operator/doorman, a live-in superintendent, laundry room and bike room. Situated steps from Central Park, the building is in one of the most desirable locations in the city.

Please consult your own professional for exact square footage. Please note there is an ongoing capital assessment of $145.67/mo. thru 3/2030 for elevator modernization project and to replenish reserves.
