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. There is a 2% flip tax payable by the purchaser.

Ideally located just one block from Central Park and moments from museums, transportation, shopping, and dining, the building also offers convenient access to many of the city’s top schools, including the Hill schools.
