275 W 96th Street 5I

Welcome to a rarеly аvaіlablе "Ι" lіne at The Columbіа, thе mοst dеsirable layout in the building, where gracious proportions meet an abundance of natural light. A wide entry foyer welcomes you home and flows effortlessly into sprawling living room and dining area, framed by a dramatic wall of windows facing south, east and west that carry the sun through the space for most of the day. Step out onto the wraparound balcony for morning coffee or an evening breeze, or gather in the open, windowed kitchen, a natural hub for cooking and conversation alike. The primary suite is a true retreat, generously scaled with a walk in closet and en-suite bath. Just beyond, a second bedroom of equal comfort, while the third bedroom enjoys a cheerful eastern exposure, with a second full bath thoughtfully placed to serve both bedrooms. The Columbia offers the ease of full service living, with a 24 hour doorman and concierge, live in super, and direct garage access that makes coming and going effortless. Residents enjoy an exceptional amenity collection, from a catering kitchen, fully equipped gym, sauna, and steam rooms to basketball, racquetball/squash court, a game room and community room, a massive swimming pool, sundeck, and roof deck made for taking in the skyline, plus first floor office space. All of this just moments from the express 1, 2, and 3 trains and crosstown buses, and a short stroll to Riverside Park, practically at the doorstep, and Central Park a few blocks away, in the heart of one of the Upper West Side's most beloved neighborhoods.
