Nou apresye jan li difisil pou jwenn kay ki vrèman bon pou ou. Li sanble tankou ou toujou oblije fè konpwomi sou bagay ki enpòtan pou ou. Espas—ou bezwen espas. Se pa sèlman kantite chanm yo, men dimansyon yo fè yon diferans tou. Plan an dwe byen òganize pou l fasil e pratik. Pou lavi chak jou. Pou lè fanmi ak zanmi vin vizite. Oswa lè ou poukont ou, ap repoze, ap travay, oswa ap etidye.

Petèt li lè pou vizite 143 Milton Street. Apre yon renovasyon ki te dire plizyè ane, kay la pare pou l tounen yon fwaye kè kontan pou moun ki bouke chèche. Kay an ranje sa a, ki gen kat etaj, ofri yon pwofondè, yon volim, ak yon lajè ki ra e ki difisil pou jwenn nan yon kondominyòm, ale wè nan yon kay. Men kontrèman ak kay an ranje tipik yo, lavi ladan l pa prèske menm jan an ki vètikal e ki difisil. Epi konpare ak yon nouvo kondominyòm, se yon vrè okazyon!

Men ann kòmanse depi nan kòmansman. Ou pran direksyon bèl Milton Street la, ki trankil e ki gen pye bwa sou chak bò, yon blòk lwen sant prensipal katye a, kote Greenpoint Avenue ak Manhattan Avenue kwaze. Nan yon forè beton tankou vil Nouyòk, bèl aparans devan yon kay se yon bagay ki ra. Men nan ka sa a, li la toutbon. Devan kay la gen yon bèl jaden prive ki plante, ki bay ton an.

Kay la te bati an 1894 kòm youn nan yon gwoup sèt kay. Li gen yon fasad nan stil Queen Anne, dekore ak brik women wouj ak wòch. Anwo salon an, gen yon fenèt ki soti deyò sou dezyèm etaj la, epi pi wo a li gen yon loggia.

Lè ou antre, ou jwenn yon ti kwen pou chita oswa li, ki bay sou fenèt bay la ak jaden an. Apre sa, espas ouvè pou salon ak sal manje a bay yon sans kalm espas, limyè, ak volim. Pandan ou kontinye nan koridò a, ou jwenn yon ban, yon pandri pou rad, ak yon biwo pou ekri. Yon kwizin ki klere, ki laj, epi ki gen fenèt fini etaj la avèk elegans. Li ekipe ak aparèy Miele, epi li antoure ak bèl kabinè pèsonalize ki gen koulè gri pal ansanm ak yon kontwa an wòch pal.

Sou dezyèm etaj la, gen yon dezyèm chanm dèyè. Anfas li, gen yon chanm ki pran tout lajè kay la epi ki bay sou jaden an, pandan yon twalèt konplè an mab louvri sou palye a.

Dènye etaj la gen pi gwo chanm yo an tèm de pwofondè. Menm jan ak chanm ki anba a, li bay sou lari a. Men olye de fenèt bay ak chèz bò fenèt ki nan etaj ki anba a, gras ak oriel la, chanm sa a louvri sou yon bèl loggia. Li gen pwòp twalèt mab pa li. Nivo ki pi ba a ofri yon espas ki fleksib anpil, yo ranje kòm yon chanm fanmi/salon prive/chanm envite, ak pwòp aksè pa devan pou ale nan jaden an. Li gen tou yon ba ak yon twalèt dèyè ki gwo anpil, nan stil yon spa. Anplis, etaj la gen yon ti espas lesiv ki gen yon machin lave ak yon seche rad.

Lòt karakteristik kay la gen ladan yon asansè ki sèvi tout etaj yo, plafon ki wo ak planche an bwa ki laj nan tout kay la, èkondisyone santral, ansanm ak yon sistèm alam.

Kay sa a pare pou moun antre ladan l imedyatman, epi li ap tann nouvo pwopriyetè chans li. Li sitiye nan Distri Istorik Greenpoint, kote transpò fasil, makèt, boutik, ak magazen endepandan fanmi yo posede depi plizyè jenerasyon toujou anpil. Pak yo toupre, ou ka rive ladan yo ap mache byen vit, epi gen plis k ap vini. Epi kontrèman ak pifò katye yo, li poko rive nan tout potansyèl li—se poutèt sa li se yon bon envestisman anplis!

Pa rate opòtinite ra sa a. Vin wè li jodi a epi demen ou ka antre abite ladan l.

We appreciate how difficult it is to find just the right home. It feels like you’re always compromising on matters that are important to you. Space, you need space. Not just the number of rooms, but sizes make a difference. The layout, too, has to flow well for convenience and ease. For everyday living. For when you have family and friends. Or when you are alone, resting, working, or studying. Perhaps it’s time to visit 143 Milton Street. Having just undergone a multi-year renovation, it’s ready to become the happy home for those weary of the search. This four-story row house offers the rare depth, volume, and width that are hard to find in a condominium, much less a house. But unlike townhouses, living is not nearly as dauntingly vertical. And compared to a new condo, this one’s a steal! But let’s start from the beginning. You turn to the beautifully tree-lined and serene Milton Street, one block away from the main neighborhood hub, which is the intersection of Greenpoint and Manhattan Avenues. In a concrete jungle like NYC, curb appeal is rarely a thing. But in this instance, it is. In front of the house is a lovely private, planted, front garden setting the scene. Built in 1894 as one of seven, the house features a Queen Anne-style fac¸ade adorned with red roman brick and stone. Above the parlor, an oriel is perched on the second floor, then a loggia above it. Upon entry, one is greeted with a sitting/reading nook overlooking the bay window and garden. Next, open living and dining gives a calming sense of space, light, and volume. Proceeding along a corridor: a bench, coat closet, and a writing desk. A bright and spacious windowed kitchen gracefully finishes the floor. It is equipped with Miele appliances, surrounded by lovely light gray custom cabinetry and light stone countertop. On the second floor, one finds a rear secondary bedroom. A garden-facing full-width bedroom is located opposite, while a full marble bathroom opens onto the landing. The top floor houses the largest of the bedrooms in depth. Like the one below, it is street-facing. But in lieu of the lower floor’s bay window and window seating courtesy of the oriel, this one opens onto a charming loggia. En suite, another marble bath. The lowest level boasts a uniquely flexible space, configured as a family/den/guest room with its own front access to the garden. It also showcases a bar and an enormous, spa-like bathroom in the rear. In addition, the floor also houses the laundry closet with a washer/dryer. Other features of the house include an elevator servicing all floors, high ceilings and wide wooden floors throughout, central air-conditioning, and an alarm system. This turn-key home awaits its lucky new owner. Located in Greenpoint Historic District, convenient transportation, groceries, shops, and individual, generationally-owned stores still abound. Parks are within quick walking distance, with more to come. And unlike most neighborhoods, it has yet to reach its maximum potential–hence, making it a great investment to boot! Seize this rare opportunity. See it today and move-in tomorrow.
