Description

Move right into this high floor and oversized 1 Bedroom home in the heart of the Upper East Side. A formal entry gallery leads into a large sunken living room facing North with an abundance of natural sunlight throughout the day. The windowed marble kitchen boasts tons of storage, great counter space and updated appliances including a built-in wine cooler. The Master Bedroom also faces North and features 2 outfitted closets including 1 giant walk-in with a built-in dresser and amazing storage. The luxurious bathroom is clad in Carrara marble and was cleverly enlarged to accommodate an oversized vanity with tons of storage, a seated make-up area and a hotel-like soaking tub. A windowed dining area completes the apartment and is perfect for entertaining or can be easily converted to a home-office or nursery/small bedroom (which many people in the line have done). Other details include beautifully maintained hardwood floors, nearly 9ft ceilings and a reasonable monthly maintenance. Please note, a washer/dryer could be installed with Board approval. Built in 1947, the Thornley is a coveted Art Deco building with a full-time doorman, live-in super, planted roof deck, basement storage and on-site laundry. Conveniently located near all major transportation, the 79th Street transverse and many of the city's finest restaurants and shops

The Upper East Side remains the gold standard for classic New York elegance. Known for 'Museum Mile' and its low-traffic, tree-lined streets, the neighborhood offers a refined lifestyle away from the midtown bustle. While famous for its historic cooperatives, the area has seen a recent surge in ultra-luxury new construction condos, particularly along the Second Avenue Subway corridor, making it a top choice for both traditionalists and modern buyers.
