Property Description for 127 West 96th Street, 9-E

Contract Signed. CHARMING, QUIET ONE-BEDROOM with pre-war details and lots of space. Situated in a 24-hour-doorman building, this one-bedroom has plenty of room for you to spread out: there are 3 closets, including a cedar walk-in; a 22-foot-living room with space for dining; a large bedroom with room for a king-sized bed and office, and an ensuite bath with updated touches, including a reglazed tub and elegant marble tile flooring.

Built in 1927, the mid-sized building has prewar details typical of the luxury housing of the day, including high, beamed ceilings, an arched entryway from the foyer, a window in the bath, and beautiful hardwood floors. The windowed kitchenette is concealed in a nook off the living room, but can be opened up, as others in the building have, if you prefer a more modern, loft-like floorplan. The full-service elevator building has a large laundry room downstairs, where there is also additional storage, including bike storage (wait list).

The apartment faces the back of the building, so it has no particular view, but the quiet makes it an ideal retreat for someone in need of a respite from the hubbub of the city. The building also has a newly refurbished garden courtyard, which provides a sunny place to lounge with a book, and the oasis of Central Park is just a block-and-a-half away.

The building does not allow pieds-a-terre, but it does welcome your pets, both cats and dogs. Some subletting is permitted after two years' residency, subject to board approval. Co-purchases are not allowed, but parental gifts are OK.

Be near the Upper West Side's newest Trader Joe's, set to open just three blocks away. There is also easy access to both the B and C subway lines on Central Park West and also the local and express trains (1,2,3) at Broadway.

List price: $585,000. Flip tax, based on time of occupancy, paid by the seller. Maintenance: Just $986 per month, approx. 40% T.D.

Upper West Side | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Bracketed on its east and west borders by massive city parks, the Upper West Side (UWS) is known for its greenery, stately and elegant townhomes, safe streets and great schools, all of which make it a very desirable neighborhood for families. The UWS has maintained its community feeling, making it attractive to young professionals and retirees, both of whom want a sense of belonging in the place they call home.

Here you’ll find many apartment buildings, especially those along Central Park West. Historic architecture abounds, anchored by four luxury co-ops - the San Remo, Majestic, Century and Eldorado apartments - all of which have two towers on their interiors. They were built in the 1930s and their design was predicated on a 1929 building code that imposed a height limit on residences facing the street. There are also impressive row houses near Riverside Drive throughout the W 70 and 80 Streets. Above the 90s, you will find smaller buildings where walk-ups are very reasonably priced.

There are several world-class museums and venues dedicated to the performing arts. Plentiful dining can be found in the UWS. You will find everything from quaint Jewish delis serving up bagels and a schmear to sophisticated fine dining that has earned multiple Michelin stars, and everything you could possibly want in between. There is also abundant shopping and a vibrant nightlife.
