Smještena na privatnom kutu u voljenom povijesnom okrugu Douglastona, 101 Forest Road je rijetki dutch kolonijalni majstorski komad — ljubavna i detaljna replika Brooklynove Lefferts Historic House. S pet spavaćih soba, tri i pol kupaonice, i atmosferom bogatom rukotvorinama i gracioznošću, ova kuća nudi bezvremensku ljepotu uz svakodnevnu udobnost.

Impozantni ulazni trijem s kolonama, stazom od plavog kamena i ciglenim podovima postavlja scenu za ono što slijedi. Unutra se nalaze široke drvene podne daske, elegantna drvena obloga i složeni drvorezarski radovi. Dva veličanstvena kamina na drva smatraju središnjim točkama sunčanim dnevnim i blagovaonskim sobama, dok francuska vrata i promišljen raspored povećavaju osjećaj prostranosti i šarma.

Kuhinja je topla i funkcionalna, s granitnim radnim površinama, lijepim drvenim kuhinjskim namještajem i vrhunskim aparatima, uključujući profesionalnu pećnicu. Ugodni kutak za doručak nalazi se između dva prozora—savršeno za opuštene obroke ili jutarnju kavu. Strana ulazna vrata vode izravno do dugog privatnog kolnika i dvorišta. Iza kuhinje, stilski prostor za pranje/sipanje dodaje fleksibilnost za zabavljanja. Udobna radna soba s holandskim vratima otvara se na zatvoreni trijem—opremljen drvenim podovima, stropnim gredama i ventilatorom—nudeći savršeni unutarnji-vanjski bijeg. Šarmantna bočna kamenita terasa s više ulaza iz dnevne sobe i radne sobe nudi dodatni privatni prostor za opuštanje.

Ova izvanredna rezidencija s pet spavaćih soba i tri i pol kupaonice nudi ljubazan raspored za svakodnevni život i zabavu. Privatna glavna suite je mirno utočište s vlastitom kupaonicom. Pametna, odvojena stepeništa iz kuhinje vode do privatne spavaće sobe koja dijeli Jack-and-Jill kupaonicu s drugom sobom—idealna shema za odmaralište za dadilju, proširenu obitelj ili izolirani kutak za goste. Dvije sunčane spavaće sobe dijele pristup veseloj terasi, savršenoj za tihe trenutke.

Dodatno, kuća uključuje puni, neuređeni podrum s visokim stropovima—nudeći obilje prostora za pohranu i odličan potencijal za buduće prilagodbe.

Ovo je više od doma—to je naslijeđe ljepote, povijesti i gracioznosti koje čeka da pozdravi svoje sljedeće poglavlje.

A grand, columned front porch with a bluestone path and brick flooring sets the stage for what’s to come.

Two magnificent wood-burning fireplaces anchor the sun-filled living and dining rooms, while French doors and thoughtful flow enhance the sense of space and charm.

The kitchen is warm and functional, with granite countertops, handsome wood cabinetry, and high-end appliances, including a professional-grade range. A cozy breakfast nook sits between two windows—perfect for casual meals or morning coffee. A side entrance leads directly to the long private driveway and backyard.

A charming side stone patio with multiple entry points from both the living room and den offers an additional private space for relaxation.

This exceptional five-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath residence offers a gracious layout for daily living and entertaining. The private primary suite is a serene escape with its own en-suite bath. A clever, separate staircase from the kitchen leads to a private bedroom that shares a Jack-and-Jill bath with another room—an ideal arrangement for a nanny suite, extended family, or a secluded guest retreat. Two sun-drenched bedrooms share access to a delightful balcony, perfect for quiet moments.

Adding to its appeal, the home includes a full, unfinished basement with high ceilings—offering abundant storage and excellent potential for future customization.
