About This Property
Residence 9E is a east-facing 2 bedroom, 2.5 bath home with 1,591 square feet, 9'1" ceilings, and floor-to-ceiling casement windows that frame sweeping river views from nearly every room.
The open living and dining area flows naturally into a beautifully appointed chef's kitchen, where custom Italian solid white oak cabinetry with exposed dovetail joinery and under-cabinet lighting meets Brazilian desert quartzite countertops, a white marble backsplash, and a premium appliance suite - Sub-Zero refrigerator and dishwasher, Wolf speed oven and gas cooktop, and vented Broan range hood with deep sink and Insinkerator. A Brazilian desert quartzite and white oak peninsula with seating for four serves as a seamlessly integrated transition between kitchen and living room.
The east-facing primary bedroom features a generous closet, floor-to-ceiling casement windows, and a spacious en-suite bath clad in white Dolomiti marble with radiant heated herringbone floors, a white oak vanity with dual Kohler sinks, Waterworks fixtures, glass-enclosed marble shower, and an enclosed water closet with Toto Neorest commode.
The secondary bedroom enjoys the same east-facing floor-to-ceiling windows and its own en-suite marble bath with mosaic floors, white oak vanity with stoneglass countertop, Hansgrohe fixtures, and a wall-mounted Toto commode.
The powder room is appointed with a floating white oak vanity, hand-carved Calacatta vessel sink, Waterworks fixtures, marble floors with bronze detailing, and a backlit white oak mirror set against a Calacatta marble mosaic wall. Wide-plank 7.5" European oak flooring, a vented LG washer/dryer, and a Nest-controlled, energy-efficient heat pump HVAC system with linear diffusers complete a home of elegant distinction.
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.

Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Corcoran Group.
What sets this two bedroom, three bath apart is the light. It’s 1,591 square feet, and the floor-to-ceiling casement windows run through the main rooms. The ceilings are 9 feet 1 inch, which makes everything feel taller, and you can see the river from almost every room.
Both bedrooms face east, and each one has its own floor-to-ceiling casement windows. On the winter solstice you can get direct sun from about 7:41 AM to 11:14 AM, and on the summer solstice it runs from about 5:49 AM to 12:44 PM. Those numbers assume an open horizon, so nearby buildings could block some of it. It’s worth looking at what’s around the unit before you decide.
The kitchen is a real selling point. The cabinets are solid white oak with the joints left visible and lighting tucked under the uppers. The counters are Brazilian desert quartzite with a white marble backsplash. You get a Sub-Zero refrigerator and dishwasher, a Wolf speed oven and gas cooktop, and a Broan hood. The peninsula seats four and opens right into the living room, so it works well when you’re hosting.
The bathrooms are done at the same level. The primary bath is lined in Dolomiti marble with heated herringbone floors, a white oak vanity with dual Kohler sinks, and a glass-enclosed shower. The second bath has mosaic floors, Hansgrohe fixtures, and a stoneglass-topped white oak vanity.
The practical details add real value too. The floors are 5 inch European oak throughout, there’s central air, and the LG washer and dryer are inside the unit. Key Food is about two minutes away on foot, so errands are easy.
The building amenities are the kind you’d normally pay a gym membership for. There’s a 75 foot saltwater lap pool, a spa pool, a steam room, a sauna, a squash court, and a Pilates studio. Upstairs, the rooftop terrace has an outdoor cinema and grilling areas. Pets are allowed, and there’s a children’s playroom and a bike room.
Location is the last piece. The 1, 2 and 3 trains at 96th Street are about a minute on foot, and Riverside Park is about five minutes away, so you have the subway and the park both close to your front door.
