Ang pambihirang available na one-bedroom unit sa mataas na palapag, nakaharap sa timog, sa The Sovereign ay maingat na inayos. Pagpasok sa maringal na foyer, matutuon ang pansin sa malalaki at nakaharap sa timog at kanlurang mga Tilt and Turn na bintana na nagbubukas ng kahanga-hangang tanawin ng ilog sa timog. Pinayayaman ng matataas na 9-foot na kisame, malalapad na hardwood floor, at mga dingding na pinakinis ng skim coat ang kaaya-ayang sala at dining area na may mga bintana.

Nagtatampok ang magandang inayos na kusinang may bintana ng Sub-Zero refrigerator at Bosch dishwasher. Ang wine cooler, washer/dryer, at custom cabinetry ay karagdagang mga mararangyang tampok na ginagawa itong perpektong tahanan sa lungsod. May marble powder room at pambihirang espasyo sa imbakan sa silid-tulugan.

Nang itayo ang The Sovereign noong 1974, sinabi ni Paul Goldberger ng The New York Times, “Ang The Sovereign ay kabilang sa kategorya ng super luxury.” Ang gusaling dinisenyo ni Emory Roth ay may lobby na “umaabot sa ilalim ng buong gusali, at may apat na semiprivate na pasilyo sa bawat palapag—isang kaaya-aya (at magastos) na alternatibo sa mahabang pasilyong may mga apartment sa magkabilang panig. Malamang na walang ganitong ayos na ginamit sa alinmang gusali sa New York mula pa noong dekada ’30.”

Noon at ngayon, dahil dalawang apartment lamang ang nasa bawat palapag, tinatamasa ng mga residente ang walang kapintasang world-class na serbisyo mula sa mga kawani, kabilang ang mga guwardiya, doorman, concierge, on-site management, valet parking, at marami pa.

Ang The Sovereign ay isa sa mga pinakakilalang postwar cooperative building. Ang elegante at kahanga-hangang lobby na nasa International Style ay may matataas na kisame na pinatingkad ng kislap ng mga hand-blown na Venini chandelier mula dekada ’50, na dinisenyo ng Italyanong arkitektong si Carlo Scarpa. Pinapaganda ang mid-century lobby ng orihinal nitong mga panel na Rosewood, travertine marble floor, at koleksiyon ng mga piling painting. Masiyahan sa gym sa antas ng lobby, 24-oras na valet garage na may mga Tesla charger, at kahanga-hangang marangyang serbisyo kabilang ang on-site management. May bike room at pribadong storage. Pinahihintulutan ng Board ang mga alagang hayop (hanggang dalawang aso). Pinahihintulutan ang pied-à-terre at pagbili sa ilalim ng Trust at LLC, alinsunod sa pag-apruba ng Board.

This rarely available high floor south facing one bedroom in The Sovereign has been meticulously renovated. Entering through a gracious foyer you are drawn to the oversized south and west Tilt and Turn windows framing the magnificent south river views. The high 9 foot ceilings, wide plank hardwood floors and skim coated walls enhance the welcoming living room and windowed dining area.

A beautifully renovated windowed kitchen features a Subzero refrigerator and Bosch dishwasher. The wine cooler, washer/dryer, custom cabinetry are additional luxury features making this a perfect city home. There is a marble powder room and exceptional storage in the bedroom.

When The Sovereign was built in 1974, Paul Goldberger of The New York Times noted, "The Sovereign is in the super luxury category." The Emory Roth designed building has a lobby that "extends under the entire building, and there are four semiprivate halls per floor - a welcome (and expensive) alternative to the long, double loaded corridor. Such an arrangement has probably not been used in any New York building since the nineteen-thirties."

Then as now, with only two apartments per floor, the residents are treated to impeccable world class service is provided by the staff that includes sentry, doorman, concierge, on-site management, valet parking, and more.

The Sovereign is one of the most renowned post war cooperatives. The elegant and impressive International Style lobby has soaring ceilings accented by the sparkle of hand blown 1950's Venini chandeliers, designed by the Italian Architect Carlo Scarpa. Enhancing the mid-century lobby are its original Rosewood panels, travertine marble floors and collection of curated paintings. Enjoy the lobby level gym, 24 hr. valet garage with Tesla charges and wonderful luxury service including on-site management. There is a bike room and private storage. The Board permits pets (up to two dogs). Pied-a-terre and purchase in a Trust and LLC's are permitted with Board Approval.
