Luksuzna vila Jules Bache: Remek-delo veličanstva zlatnog doba i moderne udobnosti. Rijetki dragulj u arhitektonskom pejzažu Manhattana, vila Jules Bache utjelovljuje vrhunac raskoši zlatnog doba, besprijekorno spojene s suvremenim rafinmanom. Prvotno sagrađena 1881. godine, vila je postala poznata 1897. kada ju je kupio Jules Bache, poznati finansijer i kolekcionar umetnosti. Bache je angažovao C.P.H. Gilberta, jednog od najutjecajnijih arhitekata zlatnog doba, da preuzme transformaciju kuće.

Od njene impozantne fasade od vapnenca do izvanredne Beaux-Arts izrade - s majstorski detaljnim lajsnama, složenom drvenarijom i ukrašenim rezbarijama - svaki novi deo ove izvanredne rezidencije je dokaz jednog doba neprevaziđene umetničke vještine. Prostrana na 7 nivoa i otprilike 1.200 kvadratnih metara, ova vila široka 26 stopa ponosi se sa 7 spavaćih soba, 13 kupatila i visinama plafona od 10 do 16 stopa. U središtu, zapanjujuća dnevna soba od 600 kvadratnih stopa sa visokim prozorima od poda do stropa zrači bezvremenskom elegancijom. Ovaj zadivljujući prostor bio je domaćin nekih od najistaknutijih okupljanja u Manhattanu, od raskošnog venčanja do svetski poznatih dobrotvornih događaja.

Iako poštuje svoju bogatu arhitektonsku baštinu, ova izvanredna rezidencija je majstorski reimaginirana kako bi pružila vrhunsku udobnost za moderni život. Temeljnija obnova, završena pre petnaest godina, osigurava da je svaki element u savršenom stanju. Promišljeno integrisani moderni poboljšanja povećavaju funkcionalnost doma, uključujući punu uslugu lift koji omogućava pristup s donjeg nivoa do nedavno dizanjene krovne oaze. Takođe, svaki povijesni detalj pažljivo je očuvan i obnovljen, uključujući 7 funkcionalnih kamina i zapanjujuću trpezariju, rekonstruiranu iz engleske kapele koju je donio Gilbert. Obnova postavlja savršen balans između veličanstva starog sveta i savremene sofisticiranosti.

Kao kruna ovog arhitektonskog čuda je izvanredna krovna oaza od 1.700 kvadratnih stopa - gradsko utočište poput nijednog drugog. Dizajnirana za zabavu, sadrži prostrane terase na severu i jugu, stakleni atrijum sa grijanjem i klimatizacijom, potpuno opremljenu spoljnu kuhinju, rasvetu, navodnjavanje, polu kupatilo i direktan pristup liftom.

Idealno smeštena samo pola ulice od Central Parka, ova besprekorno održavana rezidencija nudi neuporediv spoj istorije i moderne rafiniranosti. Rijetka prilika za vlasništvo nad pravim arhitektonskim obilježjem, vila Jules Bache dostupna je za 44.950.000 dolara.
