Rijetka kuća u nizu uz obalu, široka 25 stopa, u Brooklyn Heightsu

Prvi put nakon više desetljeća na tržištu, kuća na adresi 144 Columbia Heights rijetka je prilika za vlasništvo nad veličanstvenom kućom u nizu uz obalu, širokom 25 stopa, u jednoj od najpoželjnijih ulica četvrti Brooklyn Heights. Ova povijesna kuća pruža širok pogled preko East Rivera na panoramu Manhattana, Brooklyn Bridge i dalje. Pred očima se neprestano mijenja prizor brodova u prolazu, blještavih gradskih svjetala, dramatičnih neba i naizgled beskrajnih zalazaka sunca.

U vlasništvu iste obitelji od 1962. godine, kuća na adresi 144 Columbia Heights pažljivo je održavana nekretnina koja se prodaje iz ostavine i pruža priliku da joj udahnete novi život. Predaje se prazna, a ova zakonski registrirana kuća za pet obitelji obuhvaća 8.249 četvornih stopa unutarnjeg prostora. Trenutačni raspored uključuje donji troetažni stan vlasnika, dva stana koja se protežu cijelim katom i dva manja stana s jednom spavaćom sobom. Bez obzira na to zamislite li je kao veličanstvenu obiteljsku kuću, višestambeni dom ili nekretninu za prenamjenu odnosno ulaganje, 144 Columbia Heights nudi izniman potencijal — svakako ćete poželjeti angažirati arhitekta.

Troetažni stan vlasnika obuhvaća salonsku, vrtnu i podrumski etažu, a pažljivo ga je projektirao ugledni arhitekt Charles Forberg. U njemu se skladno isprepliću izvorni detalji i modernistički dizajn sredine 20. stoljeća. Sve su prostorije prostrane i ispunjene prirodnim svjetlom.

Na salonskoj etaži stropovi se uzdižu do impresivnih 12 stopa i 10 inča, a tu su i veliko izvorno ogledalo između prozora te dramatični prozori visoki 10 stopa, od kojih svaki ima izvorne kapke. Prostrani dnevni boravak pruža prekrasan pogled na luku, panoramu Manhattana i vrt. Neposredno uz dnevni boravak nalazi se poseban balkon u stilu New Orleansa, s elegantnom ogradom od kovanog željeza i iznimnim pogledom na obalu. Na salonskoj etaži nalazi se i glavna spavaća soba s kupaonicom i izvornim ukrasnim kaminom, s pogledom na ulicu Columbia Heights okruženu drvećem.

Vrtna etaža jedno je od središta doma i nudi privlačan niz prostora za svakodnevni život, uključujući blagovaonicu, kuhinju, praonicu rublja, kupaonicu, dvije spavaće sobe i ured. Okupana zapadnim svjetlom, blagovaonica ima izvorni ukrasni kamin i šarmantna nizozemska vrata koja se otvaraju izravno na popločanu terasu i vrt. S terase se silazi u sunčani vrt, idealan za opuštanje ili elegantno druženje.

Podrumska etaža ističe se trima gracioznim lukovima, prirodnim kamenom i stropovima visokima 7 stopa i 9 inča. Prostrana prostorija za rekreaciju s podom od terakotnih pločica i izravnim izlazom u stražnje dvorište može se prilagoditi za kućnu teretanu, ured, obiteljsku sobu ili prostoriju za medije. Na ovoj se etaži nalaze i brojne spremišne prostorije te tehničke instalacije.

Gornje etaže kuće čine sunčani stanovi za najam. Stanovi koji se protežu cijelim katom renovirani su, a odlikuju ih visoki stropovi, praonica rublja te spektakularan pogled na East River i Manhattan. Stanovi na najvišem katu manji su jednosobni stanovi sa svjetlarnicima, velikim prozorima i izvanrednim pogledom.

Kuća na adresi 144 Columbia Heights nalazi se u mirnoj, slikovitoj ulici obrubljenoj drvećem i elegantnim kućama u nizu iz 19. stoljeća, uz kultno šetalište Brooklyn Heights Promenade. Park Brooklyn Bridge udaljen je svega nekoliko koraka, a do četvrti DUMBO stiže se kratkom šetnjom nizbrdo. Omiljeni restorani i specijalizirane trgovine s hranom u susjedstvu — među njima Inga’s Bar, L’Appartement 4F, Henry’s End, Noodle Pudding i Vineapple — nalaze se na laganoj pješačkoj udaljenosti. Manhattan je lako dostupan preko Brooklyn Bridgea, a praktične mogućnosti prijevoza nude linije podzemne željeznice 2, 3, A, C, 4, 5 i R te trajekt NYC Ferry.
