Nyumba ya kihistoria ya aina ya townhouse huko Red Hook, yenye karibu futi za mraba 3,000 za nafasi ya ndani, bustani ya faragha yenye kina kirefu, na mpangilio unaoweza kubadilika wa familia mbili, 27 Dikeman Street inatoa aina ya nafasi ambayo inazidi kuwa ngumu kupatikana Brooklyn.

Kwa sasa imepangwa kuwa makazi ya mmiliki yenye ngazi mbili za chini, pamoja na makazi tofauti juu, nyumba hii inachanganya uwiano mpana wa vyumba na mpangilio wenye matumizi mengi yasiyo ya kawaida.

Kwenye ghorofa ya ukumbi, makazi makuu yanafunguka kuelekea eneo angavu la kukaa na kula linaloendelea kwa zaidi ya futi 29, huku jiko lililokarabatiwa likiwa nyuma ya nyumba. Madirisha yanayoelekea kusini huingiza mwanga mwingi wa asili na kutazama bustani, huku milango ikielekea moja kwa moja kwenye deki, hivyo kuunganisha kwa urahisi sehemu za ndani na nje. Chumba kikubwa cha kulala, ofisi tofauti, na bafu kamili vinakamilisha ghorofa hii.

Ghorofa ya chini inapanua kwa kiasi kikubwa uwezekano wa matumizi ya nyumba hii, ikiwa na vyumba viwili vikubwa vya burudani, ofisi ya ziada au chumba cha kutazamia filamu na vyombo vya habari, bafu kamili, sehemu ya kufulia, na ufikiaji wa moja kwa moja wa bustani. Ikiwa na upana wa takriban futi 20 na kina cha futi 40, ua wa nyuma uliopambwa unaonekana kama mwendelezo halisi wa nyumba, ukiwa na mimea iliyostawi, mianzi, na mti mkubwa wa mirtoli unaounda mazingira ya faragha kwa ajili ya kula, kuburudisha wageni, kulima bustani, au kufurahia tu nafasi zaidi ya nje.

Makazi ya juu yanachukua ghorofa ya tatu na yana jiko lake, sebule, chumba cha kulia, chumba cha kulala, chumba cha ziada, chumba kingine kidogo cha kulala au nafasi inayoweza kubadilishwa, pamoja na bafu kamili. Yakiwa na mandhari ya miti kuelekea bustani na utengano mzuri kutoka kwenye ghorofa zilizo chini, makazi haya yanafaa sana kama apartment inayozalisha mapato, huku yakihifadhi faragha ya makazi makuu.

Nje ya nyumba, Dikeman Street inakuweka katikati ya mambo yanayoifanya Red Hook kuwa ya kipekee: bustani na gati za pembezoni mwa maji, mitaa ya kihistoria, maduka huru, maghala ya sanaa, mikahawa, na baadhi ya taasisi za karibu zinazopendwa zaidi Brooklyn. Red Hook Tavern, Sunny’s, Pioneer Works, Strong Rope Brewery, IKEA, na Chelsea Garden Center zote ni sehemu ya mchanganyiko wa kipekee wa eneo hili.

Ikiwa na nafasi kubwa za ndani na nje, mpangilio unaoweza kubadilika wa familia mbili, na haiba isiyoweza kuchanganywa ya Red Hook, 27 Dikeman Street ni townhouse ya Brooklyn yenye nafasi ya kubadilika na kukua pamoja na mmiliki wake ajaye.

A classic Red Hook townhouse with nearly 3,000 square feet of interior space, a deep private garden, and a flexible two-family configuration, 27 Dikeman Street offers the kind of space that is increasingly hard to find in Brooklyn.

Currently arranged as an owner’s lower duplex with a separate residence above, the home combines generous proportions with an unusually versatile layout.

On the parlor level, the main residence opens to a bright living and dining space stretching more than 29 feet, with a renovated kitchen positioned along the rear of the home. South-facing windows bring in abundant natural light and overlook the garden, while doors lead directly to a deck for an easy connection between indoors and out. A spacious bedroom, separate office, and full bath complete this floor.

The lower level dramatically expands the possibilities, with two large recreation rooms, an additional office or media room, a full bath, laundry, and direct access to the garden. At approximately 20 feet wide and 40 feet deep, the landscaped backyard feels like a true extension of the house, with established plantings, bamboo, and a mature myrtle tree creating a private setting for dining, entertaining, gardening, or simply having more room outdoors.

The upper residence occupies the third floor and features its own kitchen, living room, dining room, bedroom, den, additional smaller bedroom or flexible space, and full bath. With leafy views toward the garden and excellent separation from the floors below, it works beautifully as an income-producing apartment while preserving privacy for the main residence.

Beyond the house, Dikeman Street puts you in the heart of what makes Red Hook so distinctive: waterfront parks and piers, historic streets, independent shops, galleries, restaurants, and some of Brooklyn’s most beloved local institutions. Red Hook Tavern, Sunny’s, Pioneer Works, Strong Rope Brewery, IKEA, and Chelsea Garden Center are all part of the neighborhood’s eclectic mix.

With substantial indoor and outdoor space, a flexible two-family layout, and the unmistakable character of Red Hook, 27 Dikeman Street is a Brooklyn townhouse with room to evolve along with its next owner.
