Residence 7D at 12 East 97th Street is a beautifully appointed pre-war home offering classic Upper East Side elegance just half a block from Central Park, in the heart of Carnegie Hill.

Thoughtfully designed with gracious proportions and a highly livable layout, this elegant one-bedroom residence features a separate dining room-a rare and valuable distinction that brings both charm and functionality to the home. Whether hosting intimate dinners, enjoying a quiet morning coffee, or creating a more formal separation between living and entertaining, the dining room adds a sense of intention and refinement not often found in a traditional one-bedroom layout.

Bathed in lovely northern light, the apartment enjoys enchanting views of a landmark church and its iconic onion domes, creating one of the home's most memorable and distinctive visual moments. This striking architectural backdrop brings character, texture, and a sense of old-world New York romance to the home's serene interiors.

Classic pre-war details are on full display, including hardwood floors, high ceilings, handsome built-ins, and a decorative fireplace, while the thoughtful layout creates an easy, sophisticated flow for both everyday living and entertaining.

The windowed kitchen and bath further enhance the home's timeless appeal, while exceptional storage throughout - highlighted by a walk-in closet in the bedroom - offers both beauty and practicality.

Built in 1926, 12 East 97th Street is a full-service pre-war cooperative with attentive staff, a live-in superintendent, laundry room, bike storage, and designated storage for each shareholder. With board approval, pied-à-terres are permitted, as are through-the-wall air conditioning and in-unit washer/dryers. Financing up to 75% is allowed, and there is no flip tax.

Set within Carnegie Hill, one of Manhattan's most beloved historic neighborhoods, Residence 7D is surrounded by the architecture, culture, and quiet elegance that have long defined this special corner of the Upper East Side. Named for Andrew Carnegie, whose grand mansion on nearby Fifth Avenue helped shape the neighborhood's identity, Carnegie Hill remains prized for its graceful pre-war buildings, Museum Mile proximity, charming restaurants and shops, and remarkably peaceful residential feel.

With Central Park just half a block away, 7D offers an exceptional blend of pre-war character, thoughtful design, full-service convenience, distinctive architectural views, and one of the most treasured locations in New York City.
