Description
Red Hook Townhouse with Breathtaking Water Views
Located on one of New York Citys most celebrated blocks, this gut-renovated, historic five-bedroom single-family townhouse offers panoramic views of downtown Manhattan, the harbor, the Statue of Liberty, and spectacular sunsets over the Upper Bay. Rarely on offer on this small historic cobblestone street, the highest point in Red Hook, the home highlights its original 1860s construction with exposed beams, brick and floors in a brilliant "upside down" layout where the top floor open plan living/dining/kitchen leads to a spectacular full roof deck with breathtaking water and city views. With a spacious 20' x 48' footprint and meticulous attention to detail, this is quintessential Red Hook.
Gourmet Living: An English Kitchen for New York Chefs
The expansive, column-free top floor is bathed in natural light and hosts the magnificent English kitchen. It boasts custom deVOL cabinetry, Belgian bluestone and copper countertops, and a huge center island with seating. An adjacent pantry provides all the space needed for storage, serve ware, and small appliances.
Luxury Meets Function
With exposed brick, original beams and 10 plank floors, this open, loft-like living space is perfect for relaxing by the cozy wood-burning fireplace or entertaining guests with easy access to the roof deck for sunset views and outdoor gatherings. The fifth bedroom, currently configured as a separate family room on the parlor floor, features tall ceilings, exposed beams and plank floors.
The bespoke bathrooms were designed for the needs of a large family without sacrificing style. Indulge in a soak in the deep freestanding tub, enjoy the comfort of heated tile floors in winter, and refresh in the outdoor shower during the summer. Expansive entertaining spaces, clever storage solutions, and unparalleled indoor/outdoor living make this home a true showcase.
