Greenpoint Townhouse na may Charm ng Kanayunan at London-Inspired Elegance

Orihinal na itinayo noong 1868 ng lokal na tagabuo na si John W. Ford, ang makasaysayang bahay na gawa sa kahoy sa Greenpoint ay nagpapahiwatig ng romansa ng isang kanayunan na pagdapo na pinaghalo sa walang tiyak na panahong apela ng isang London terraced house. Maingat na na-renew ng isang designer-builder na mag-asawa na kilala sa kanilang pinong mga gawaing pagpapanumbalik, bawat elemento ay may kwento—mula sa mga pinanatiling tin ceilings at hand-detailed moldings hanggang sa layered textures at curated materials na nagbibigay ng pakiramdam ng tula na nakatira. Ang resulta ay isang tahanan na tila nakaugat sa kasaysayan at madaling modern, kung saan ang bawat kwarto ay may sariling tahimik na naratibo.

MGA KATANGIAN NG TAHANAN
• Silid-pangkinabukasan na nakaharap sa timog na may maraming likas na liwanag
• Triplex ng may-ari na may apat na kwarto, dalawang buong banyo at dalawang powder room
• Sa antas ng hardin, isang unit na may isang kwarto na paupahan


PARLOR FLOOR
Pumasok sa pamamagitan ng bilog na French doors tungo sa isang maaliwalas na front parlor kung saan ang 10-talampakang kisame, plaster medallions, masalimuot na moldings, at malalapad na sahig ay nagpapakita ng mga pinanatiling detalye ng bahay. Ang mga orihinal na kahoy at nakahulma na salamin na pocket doors ay bumubukas sa isang pormal na dining room na linya ng antigong Victorian artwork at isang pandekorasyon na fireplace. Ang na-renovate na kusina ay pinagsasama ang mga marble countertop sa handcrafted green zellige tile, isang walk-in pantry, ILVE Nostalgie range, at isang custom Grohe system na nagbibigay ng malamig na still at sparkling water. Isang powder room sa ilalim ng hagdang-bato ay nagdadagdag ng kaginhawahan. Mula sa kusina, may deck na bumababa sa isang luntian, naka-landscape na hardin na inspirasyon ng kanayunang Ingles.

IKALAWANG PALUBIG
Ang gitnang antas ay nag-aalok ng isang suite-like na pagdapo na may dalawang tahimik na kwarto—isang kwarto na nakaharap sa harap bilang pangunahing kwarto na may walk-in closet, pandekorasyon na fireplace, at en-suite na banyo, at isa pang kwarto na may tanawin ng hardin na may sariling buong banyo malapit. Isang pader ng custom built-ins ang nagbibigay ng malaking imbakan, na sinusuportahan ng washer/dryer at isang spa-style bathroom na may copper-and-wood soaking tub sa ilalim ng bintana na nag-frame ng mga tanawin ng dahon.

ITOP NG PALUBIG
Dalawang karagdagang kwarto ang nagbabahagi sa antas na ito, katabi ng isang powder room at isang nababagong bonus space na kasalukuyang ginagamit bilang opisina at guest bedroom. Ang likurang kwarto ay may nakabuilt-in na imbakan.

GARDEN APARTMENT
Isang maluwang na apartment na may isang kwarto na may hiwalay na silid-pagkainan at living room ay nagbibigay ng mahusay na kita mula sa paupahan o mga akomodasyon para sa bisita. Ang kwarto ay direktang bumubukas sa patio at hardin.

CELLAR LEVEL
Maa-access mula sa parehong triplex at garden apartment, ang buong-haba na cellar ay nagbibigay ng malawak na imbakan at naglalaman ng mga sistemang mekanikal ng bahay.

MGA PANLABAS NA ESPASYO
Ang hardin ay isang pribadong, tahimik na oasis na napapalamutian ng mga mature planting, graba at brick pavers, at ambient lighting. Ang façade—na bagong pinturahan na may naibalik na kahoy na siding at orihinal na trim—ay nagbibigay sa bahay ng kwento ng libro na charm.
