Your experience begins as you enter The Sovereign through the revolving doors into the gracious lobby of this Emery Roth designed building. Only two apartments share the private landing for this wonderful home. Currently, this apartment features two master suites, a formal dining room, an eat-in kitchen, a den with a wet bar, three bathrooms and two half baths. Upon entering the apartment, you are greeted in a large entry gallery/foyer, perfect for displaying art. You will immediately be awed by the captivating views throughout this home. You can see up and down the East River and there are open city skyline views both north and south. It feels as if you are suspended just above the 59th Street Bridge. The ceilings are just shy of 9 feet, but feel higher as your eye gravitates to the beauty to be found out each window. In 2000, this 2800 sq. ft. apartment underwent a gut renovation and was converted into a luxurious two bedroom home with a den and an eat-in kitchen. With over 60 consecutive feet from the formal dining room to the living room, it’s the perfect home for entertaining. Beautiful hard wood floors grace this home and a pretty decorative fireplace gives a cozy feel to the space. The apartment has zone controlled central heat and air conditioning, new, large 4 ½ foot windows in every room and exceptional closet space throughout. There is also a spacious 12 x 8 foot southern facing balcony located off of the living room. This home provides for a flexible layout. It can remain as is, convert it back to the original 4 BR layout or reimagine it in a completely new way.
The Sovereign provides luxury service from a highly experienced staff including a 24-hr doorman, concierge service, a state-of-the-art lobby level gym, 24-hr. valet parking, and an on-site garage. The on-site management office offers superb service to the shareholders. There is also a bike room and private storage (with a waitlist). The Board permits pets (up to two dogs). Pied-a-terre and purchasing in a Trust are allowed.
The neighborhood offers numerous the parks and playgrounds on the East River, fine dining, and wonderful gourmet shops.
