KAY JOHN DWIGHT LA – PASE A SE PWOLÒG

KOUNYE A LI REDWI PRÈSKE $1,000,000

Swiv egzanp McKim, Mead & White, achitèk Frank Hill Smith te bati kay sa a an 1890 nan stil neo-Renesans Revival la pou John Dwight. Yo te konstwi l pandan Epòk Dore a (ki te dire soti 1875 rive 1900 oswa 1910), epi yo te finanse l ak anpi bikabonat li a, Arm and Hammer. Pwodui sa a te domine mache a depi 1873 e li toujou popilè jodi a. Frank Hill Smith te yon pent tou ki te kolabore ak William Morris Hunt nan ane 1880 yo; sa ka eksplike enterè espesyal li nan konsepsyon enteryè ak koulè, yon bagay ki parèt nan kay la jan nou wè l jodi a.

RENOVASYON ISTORIK KI TE GENYEN PRI

Pandan dis ane yo te posede kay la, pwopriyetè aktyèl yo te angaje achitèk renome Samuel G. White, gran-pitit Stanford White, pou restore eleman konsepsyon enteryè yo ak plan orijinal kay la. Misyon pratik achitekti varye White la defini kòm “konbine restorasyon istorik ak re-itilizasyon adapte avèk nouvo konsepsyon nan kad istorik,” epi kay sa a te ofri palèt pafè a. Pami anpil lòt pwojè, White te modènize Astor Court Stanford White la nan Rhinebeck avèk yon filozofi ki sanble. Astor Court te konstwi okòmansman pou John Jacob Astor IV epi li te enspire pa Grand Trianon nan Vèsay.

KAY NAN KWEN AK YON EKLERAYAJ EKSEPSYONÈL

Piske kay an vil New York yo gen tandans kole youn ak lòt, avèk fas yo oryante nan direksyon nò ak sid, li ra anpil pou jwenn yon kay nan kwen ki gen limyè sou twa kote.

Kay sa a oryante nan direksyon lwès, sid ak lès, avèk gwoup gwo fenèt kare ak yon bèl senk chanm nan kwen. Anpil fenèt ki sou bò long kay la ranpli enteryè a ak yon kantite limyè ki eksepsyonèl. Kat chanm oval ki sou bò long bilding lan, yo menm tou ki gen gwo gwoup fenèt, ajoute plis limyè abondan toujou.

An total, kay la gen 52 gwo fenèt, yon kantite ekstraòdinè. Se kèk kay sèlman ki jwenn benediksyon ak tout kantite limyè natirèl sa a.

Winner of the 2022 LUCY G. MOSES PRESERVATION Award

THE JOHN DWIGHT HOUSE - PAST IS PROLOGUE

NOW REDUCED BY NEARLY $1,000,000

Following the lead of McKim, Mead & White, this house was built in 1890 in the neo-Renaissance Revival style by architect Frank Hill Smith for John Dwight. It was erected during The Gilded Age (from 1875 to 1900 or 1910), and financed by his baking soda empire, Arm and Hammer. This product dominated the market from 1873 onward and is still popular today. Frank Hill Smith was also a painter who collaborated with William Morris Hunt in the 1880s, which may account for his preoccupation with interior design and color, which is reflected in the house we see today.

AWARD WINNING HISTORIC RENOVATION

During their decade long ownership, the present owners engaged the illustrious architect, Samuel G. White, the great grandson of Stanford White, to restore the interior design elements and original floor plan of this house. The mission of White's varied architectural practice is defined as "combining historic restoration and adaptive reuse with new designs and historic settings" and this house offered the perfect palette. Among many other projects, White has modernized Stanford White's Astor Court in Rhinebeck with a similar philosophy. Astor Court was built originally built for John Jacob Astor IV and inspired by The Grand Trianon at Versailles.

CORNER HOUSE WITH EXCEPTIONAL LIGHT

As New York townhouses tend to be adjacent to each other facing north and south, finding a corner house with light on three sides is extremely rare.

This house faces west, south and east, with sets of huge square windows and an amazing five corner rooms. The numerous windows on the long side of the house infuse the interior with an exceptional amount of light. Further adding to the abundant light are four oval rooms on the long side of the building also with huge sets of windows.

In total, the house possesses 52 large windows, an extraordinary number. Few houses are so blessed with this amount of natural light.
