Kwenye mojawapo ya mitaa ya nyumba za mawe ya kahawia inayotamaniwa zaidi huko Fort Greene, ikiwa na nyumba tisa tu kutoka kwenye bustani, nyumba hii ya kipekee ya mawe ya kahawia ya mtindo wa Kiitalia, iliyojengwa mwaka 1864 — yenye madirisha marefu ya sebule yanayoanzia sakafuni hadi dari — inatoa fursa adimu ya kizazi kimoja ya kuishi katika sehemu ya historia ya Brooklyn, iliyobuniwa upya kwa maisha ya kisasa.

Nyumba hii yenye upana wa futi 20 iko kwenye kiwanja kikubwa chenye kina cha futi 100, ikiwa na ghorofa nne pamoja na basementi, na kwa sasa imepangwa kuwa nyumba mbili za duplex. Ina ua mkubwa wa nyuma ulio na uzio unaoelekea magharibi, ulio wazi, usio na vizuizi, na unaopata mwanga mwingi wa jua. Maelezo ya awali bado yapo kwa wingi: ukumbi wa kuingilia, ngazi na kiegemeo chake maridadi, mapambo ya ukutani ya enzi hiyo, vifaa vya asili, pamoja na ghorofa ya sebule iliyopambwa kwa sehemu mbili zinazofanana za marumaru za kuzunguka mahali pa moto — ushahidi wa historia tajiri ya miaka 160 ya nyumba hii. Sehemu ya mbele ya nyumba bado iko katika hali bora — ikiwa ni msingi imara ulio tayari kubadilishwa.

Mipango ya usanifu inapendekeza mabadiliko ya kuvutia kuwa makazi ya familia mbili, yakiwa yamekamilishwa na chumba cha jua nyuma ya nyumba pamoja na upanuzi wa jikoni — yote yakiwa yamebuniwa kwa umakini ili kuheshimu mizizi ya nyumba hii ya Brooklyn ya karne ya 19 huku yakikidhi maisha ya kisasa. Mipango hiyo imewasilishwa kwa ajili ya kuidhinishwa, na mmiliki mpya anaweza kuendeleza mradi huo bila usumbufu, kurekebisha mipango, au kuleta maono yake mwenyewe. Cheti cha Kutonyanyasa kimeshatolewa.

Fort Greene Park iko nje tu ya mlango wa mbele — mandhari inayoonekana kutoka kwenye ngazi ya kuingilia si ya kawaida kwa uzuri wake. Bustani hiyo pia huandaa masoko pendwa ya wakulima na mafundi kila wikendi, huku usafiri wa treni ya chini ya ardhi ukifanya safari hadi katikati ya Manhattan ichukue dakika kumi pekee.

Leta maono yako. Msingi wa kuunda kitu cha kipekee tayari umewekwa.
