As a former resident and regular visitor, I've always thought of the area as the anti-Hamptons, but perhaps I was selling the place short. <br /><br />FYI of the day - "peruse" is on of the most commonly misused words in the English language. <br /><br />As for the house = swoon.<br /><br />Lady JAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7179311615101890268.post-47243881616986910332011-11-09T15:00:31.781-08:002011-11-09T15:00:31.781-08:00This is a lovely vernacular example of a Brooklyn ...This is a lovely vernacular example of a Brooklyn Italianate townhome. <br /><br />Staging Lady in a Pink Toyota removed the shower curtain for the listing photo! On the other hand, bathtub-shower combos in Europe and Israel frequently lack curtains and/or full glass enclosures. Through trial and error, oy vey, one learns to avoid creating watery damn messes. <br /><br />Perhaps a few of Mama's Children are unfamiliar with bathing arrangements in Victorian New York townhomes? The two sinks on the master bedroom level remain in their original location, intended to serve the front and rear bed chambers. A single bathtub, to serve both chambers, was located in the current kitchenette. There was a similar arrangement of sinks and a bathtub on the upper level. Toilets, remaining in their original positions, occupied tiny water closets of their own, one above another on each of the floors. <br /><br />The large open arch between the current master bath and master chamber is not original, highly immodest and therefore not kosher.<br /><br />Rabbi Hedda LaTessAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
