From the original listing · Realtor.comShow

Residence 4F is a beautifully proportioned 1 bedroom, 2 bath home offering over 1,000 square feet of refined living, with a large separate study that functions equally well as a guest room, 9'1" ceilings, and east-facing floor-to-ceiling casement windows. A gracious entry foyer with a generous closet opens into the chef's kitchen, anchored by a large island with seating for four. Custom Italian solid white oak cabinetry with exposed dovetail joinery, Brazilian desert quartzite countertops, a marble backsplash, and open oak shelving are complemented by a full suite of premium appliances - Sub-Zero refrigerator and dishwasher, Wolf speed oven and gas cooktop with vented hood, and a deep stainless steel sink with Insinkerator. The living room with dual eastern and southern exposure flows naturally toward the bedroom, with both rooms having floor-to-ceiling casement windows that fill the home with light. The bedroom features two sizable closets and a luxurious en-suite bath clad in marble, with radiant heated herringbone floors, a white vanity, glass-enclosed shower, and Toto Neorest commode. The entry bath - finished in Calacatta marble with mosaic floors and a wall-mounted Toto commode - serves as both a guest bath and a refined first impression upon arrival. Wide-plank 7.5" European oak flooring, an in-residence Asko washer/dryer, and a Nest-controlled, energy-efficient heat pump HVAC system with linear diffusers complete this exceptional home. Residents enjoy an exceptional suite of amenities, including an aquatic center with a 75-foot saltwater lap pool, spa pool, steam room, and sauna; a state-of-the-art fitness center with a dedicated Pilates studio and regulation squash court with basketball hoop; a landscaped rooftop terrace with outdoor cinema and dedicated dining and grilling areas; and a curated collection of social spaces including a private dining room with catering kitchen, club lounge, children's playroom, music room, and pet spa. Located between Riverside Park and Central Park, 250 West 96th Street pairs a striking limestone facade and bronze casement windows with interiors by acclaimed designer Thomas Juul-Hansen. The contemporary design of the building prioritizes light, scale, and sweeping city views. Classic uptown majesty meets a downtown sense of style as you enter the lobby-a room completely encased in Venetian plaster to amplify the sun-kissed atmosphere with floor-to-ceiling windows on north and south-facing facades. The sculptural reception desk, carved from a single block of travertine, reflects the quality of artistry throughout the building and provides an aesthetic anchor for the exceptionally well designed residence. Required Fees to Rent This Unit: -Application Fee: $500 -Move-in Fee: $500 -Move-out Fee: $500 -Lease Fee equal to 2 months' common charges
