Property Description for 127 West 96th Street, 5-A
GRACIOUS GOODNESS
When you dream of the ideal Upper Westside residence, certain qualities come to mind - a wish list that adds up to create the perfect home.
Your list starts with a prime location. Well, how's West 96th Street by Columbus Avenue for a locale - offering you easy access to Riverside and Central Parks, a multitude of shopping (Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s, etc.!) and dining destinations, and a plethora of easy transportation options (including the express train station at 96th & Broadway and the crosstown bus). Access to nearly every area cultural, dining, shopping, fitness, and entertainment destination is nearby.
The next item on your list is a well-served, well-scaled, classic Pre-War residence whose upgrades and improvements are timeless and terrific. Well, how does this grab you: A peaceful and pristine, sizable 1920's dandy with period detail, high beamed ceilings, and an easy-to-love layout with a sweet foyer; a sizable living room graced with big East-facing windows; a sweet separate dining area; a well-scaled windowed kitchen that's been smartly renovated with ample counters, custom cabinets, improved layout and upgraded stainless appliances; a gracious residential hall; a king-sized corner bedroom with two exposures (crossbreeze anyone?), big closets, and room for a desk space; and a renovated, windowed, classic bath and impressive closet space throughout — all in a well-run, pet-friendly doorman building with courtyard garden, resident manager, and laundry/bike/storage rooms? Well, this fantastic, feel-good find offers all of this and more.
Your dream list doesn't end there. Your wish list calls for a residence that really feels like home - a big, special space with a signature entry arch — a lovable residence that makes you feel good whenever you come home.
Well, your dream space has arrived. You've just checked off all of your "have-to-have" boxes: Super location - check; roomy, resplendent, upgraded Pre-War residence - check; an easy-to-live and easy-to-love space ready for you to call it home - check.
Congratulations — and welcome. Gracious goodness awaits.
Assessment: $150.50/month thru MAR27 for basement renovations.

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.
