KUĆA NIJE DOM. Čuli smo to mnogo puta prije. Kuće se grade, a domovi se oblikuju. Potrebna je vizija, volja, strast i duh da se oblikuje dom. Dom nije samo sastavljen od zidova, rasvjete, namještaja i opreme. On je stvoren da drži uspomene. Ulica Reade 152 prije svega je dom. To je rezidencija široka 25 stopa smještena diskretno na jednoj od najtraženijih ulica Tribece; jedna od niza kuća koje je izvorno izgradio arhitekt John L. Petrarca i ponovo zamislio Philip Koether. No, za razliku od svojih susjeda, broj 152 transformirali su trenutni vlasnici, iz kuće koju je isporučio investitor u odnosu na industrijsku Tribecu, u topli, udoban prijelazni dom. Rezultat je mirna, elegantna oaza koja spaja klasične tradicionalne elemente s čistim, jednostavnim linijama modernog dizajna: uravnotežena, udobna, sofisticirana i bezvremenska. Svaki kat se odvija s ljepotom i svrhom. Prostore ispunjava svjetlost, visina i harmonija. Veliki stakleni prozori obasjavaju dnevnu sobu, a dvostruki visoki stropovi se uzdižu do 24 stope. Stepenice od kovanog željeza s filigranskim detaljima i talijanskim mramornim stepenicama povezuju sve razine neprimjetno, dodajući modernost i profinjenost sličnu pariškom domu. Pet spavaćih soba, pet punih i dva polu kupaonice, četiri terase i privatni lift čine simfoniju udobnosti i diskrecije. Profesionalna kuhinja za doručak dizajnirana od strane Bulthaup, opremljena Gaggenau, Sub-Zero i Bosch aparatima, je i atelier i ognjište – poziv na okupljanje i proslavu. Stražnje stepenice povezuju prostoriju s pomoćnom kuhinjom koja se nalazi iznad, koja vodi u formalnu blagovaonicu koja se otvara na terasu. Glavna suite je svoj vlastiti kutak, s lukovitim prozorima, dubokom kadom za kupanje i salon za odijevanje - tiha, razmažena, ali intimna. Spavaće sobe za goste nalaze se na sljedećem katu. Iznad, razina penthouse-a ima ured/rekreacijski prostor, koji omogućuje pristup dvostranom krovu terase. Zaista fascinantno, krov uživa u filmskim pogledima na gradsku siluetu i Toranj slobode te je okružen pergolom, roštilj stanicom i otvorenom hidromasažnom kadom. Dodatne pogodnosti uključuju svodnu vinsku podrum, zvučnu glazbenu sobu i rekreacijski medijski lounge s bilijarskim stolom, stolovima za društvene igre/karte i udobnim sofama za ultimativnu udobnost. *Također dostupno za najam, upitajte za detalje.

A HOUSE IS NOT A HOME. We’ve heard it said many times before. Houses are built, and homes are crafted . It takes vision, will, passion, and spirit to craft a home. A home is not just made to contain walls, lighting, furniture, and furnishings. It’s made to hold memories. 152 Reade Street is first and foremost a home. It is a 25-foot-wide residence set discreetly on one of Tribeca’s most coveted streets; one of a row of houses originally built by architect John L. Petrarca and reimagined by Philip Koether. But unlike its neighbors, 152 was transformed by the current owners, from a developer-delivered house with deference to industrial Tribeca, into a warm, comfortable transitional home. The result is a serene, elegant haven that blends classic traditional elements with clean, simple lines of modern design: balanced, comfortable, sophisticated, and timeless. Each floor unfolds with beauty and purpose. Spaces are layered in light, height, and harmony. Sweeping panes of glass illuminate its living room, boasting double-height ceilings that soar to 24 feet. A forged-iron, filigree staircase with Italian marble steps connect all levels seamlessly, adding both modernity and refinement similarly found in a Parisian abode. Five bedrooms, five full and two half baths, four terraces, and a private elevator compose a symphony of comfort and discretion. The Bulthaup-designed professional breakfast kitchen, appointed with Gaggenau, Sub-Zero, and Bosch, is both atelier and hearth- an invitation to gather and celebrate. A rear staircase connects the room to a butler’s pantry located above, which leads to the formal dining room opening onto a terrace. The primary suite is its own retreat, with arched windows, deep soaking bath, and dressing salon- quietly indulgent yet intimate. The secondary bedrooms are located on the next level. Above it, the penthouse level features an office/recreation room, which provides access to a two-tiered rooftop terrace. Truly captivating, the roof enjoys cinematic views of the Downtown skyline and Freedom Tower and is framed by a pergola, grill station, and an open-air hot tub. Additional amenities include a vaulted wine cellar, soundproof music room, and recreational media lounge complete with billiard’s table, board game/card tables, and cozy sofas for ultimate comfort. *Also available for rent, inquire for details.
