49 E 96th Street, New York City, NY 10128

Spectacular light, sweeping city and Central Park views, and two expansive private terraces make this exceptional 2-bedroom home a true Upper East Side gem. Sunlight floods the apartment through oversized windows, highlighting the home’s elegant proportions, beautiful flow, and timeless pre-war character. Designed for both comfortable living and stylish entertaining, the layout offers a rare combination of charm, scale, and outdoor space. The dramatic living room and serene primary bedroom both open onto an incredible 27-foot terrace with breathtaking Central Park views — the perfect setting for enjoying the skyline. A second 22-foot northeast-facing terrace extends from the charming square dining room, creating another outdoor escape. Both terraces have an irrigation system. The spacious primary suite includes an en-suite bath, while the generously sized second bedroom easily functions as a guest room, office, or both. A second full bath is conveniently located off the hallway. The bright windowed kitchen features a cozy seating banquette along with top-of-the-line appliances including a Viking stove, Sub-Zero refrigerator, dishwasher, and in-unit washer/dryer. Additional highlights include abundant closet space and stunning pre-war details throughout, including beautifully stained hardwood floors, beamed ceilings, and a fireplace and central AC. 49 East 96th Street is a pet-friendly, full-service co-op offering white-glove service with a 24/7 doorman, live-in superintendent, two passenger elevators, bike room, basement laundry and storage, plus a fitness room with treadmill, stationary bike, and weight machine.
