進入紐約市最非凡的歷史地標之一的家中。這座房屋建於1855年，位於傳奇的玫瑰與皇冠酒館的土地上，在那裡英國將軍威廉·豪曾向他的部隊宣讀《獨立宣言》。這座宏偉的意大利風格別墅最初由史坦頓島一位民兵指揮官委託建造，並與自然景觀和諧共融，遵循亞歷山大·傑克遜·戴維斯和安德魯·傑克遜·唐寧的田園理想，他被譽為“美國景觀建築之父”。後來，它歸於德國出生的糖果商古斯塔夫·梅耶，他在這個家中創造的原始香草餅乾食譜成為 Nabisco 成功的基礎。這座房子融合了美國的傳承與歐洲的創新。作為一個真正的建築時光膠囊，它保持得相當完好，第一層已完全恢復到博物館標準，擁有一個雙客廳、三間臥室、兩個廚房、兩個完整的浴室，以及遍佈全屋的原創手工細節。上層有八個附加房間和粗略的管道設施，提供超過2800平方英尺的可修復空間和令人難以置信的創意潛力。這座房子佔地超過半英畝，以其標誌性的圓頂為冠，俯瞰拉里坦灣和維拉札諾大橋的壯觀景色。其夢幻般的室內曾作為世界頂級時尚攝影師如史蒂芬·梅塞爾和彼得·林德伯格的拍攝背景，並曾出現在《Vogue》、《Elle》、《哈泼时尚》和《W Magazine》等雜誌中。著名模特如吉賽爾·邦辰、洛倫·哈頓和瑪莉-凱特·奧爾森都曾在此拍攝，進一步鞏固了這處房產作為紐約市視覺和文化上最重要住所之一的聲譽。這不僅僅是房地產。

Enter inside one of New York City's most extraordinary landmarked historic homes. Built in 1855 on the grounds of the legendary Rose & Crown Tavern, where British General William Howe once read the Declaration of Independence to his troops. This grand Italianate villa was originally commissioned by a Staten Island militia commander and designed in harmony with the natural landscape, following the picturesque ideals of Alexander Jackson Davis and Andrew Jackson Downing who was the architect known as the ''father of American landscape architecture.'' Later belonging to Gustav Mayer, the German-born confectioner whose original vanilla wafer recipe, which was created in this very home, became the foundation for Nabisco's success, the house blends American legacy with European innovation. A true architectural time capsule, it has remained remarkably untouched, with the first floor fully restored to museum-quality standards, including a double parlor, three bedrooms, two kitchens, two full baths, and original handcrafted details throughout. The upper floors, with eight additional rooms and rough plumbing in place, offer over 2,800 sq ft of restoration-ready space and incredible creative potential. The home sits on over half an acre, crowned by its iconic cupola with sweeping views of Raritan Bay and the Verrazzano Bridge. Its dreamy interiors have served as backdrops for the world's top fashion photographers such as Steven Meisel and Peter Lindbergh, including spreads in Vogue, Elle, Harper's Bazaar, and W Magazine. Notable icons such as Gisele Bündchen, Lauren Hutton, and Mary-Kate Olsen have all been photographed here—further cementing this property's reputation as one of the most visually and culturally significant homes in NYC. This is more than real estate.
