As prices would indicate, the properties here are spectacular. Many of the finest townhouses occupy multiple floors, and provide open plan interiors that allow the occupant to gaze from one end to the other as soon as they come through the main door. Depending on the specific building they occupy, these units often preserve some historic details while incorporating touches of modernity that create a sophisticated yet layered interior. As an example, the original columns in a building might not be removed, but rather become part of the layout. Closets may be built around them, or they may become anchor points for different zones in the home, such as a dining space, kitchen, or bedroom. In other units, each room is clearly defined with interior walls, creating a sumptuous series of individual spaces that are accessed by virtue of passing through ornamented doorways with original woodwork. Yet other spaces prefer a clean, modern interior that favors as few dividing walls as possible, with a magnificent kitchen that visually leads into the principal living space.

Whatever the particular configuration, the kitchens in these units invariably are studies in sophisticated elegance. The finest in contemporary appliances, from stainless steel refrigerators to sparkling granite countertops, greets the eye of the visitor. The shelving usually demonstrates the creativity of the designer. While opaque wooden cabinets are common, in many kitchens frosted glass or transparent panes are inserted into the cabinet doors, creating a clear sightline into the contents of each cabinet. Instead of stretching to the ceiling, the cabinets are arranged so that there is a display space above them, making it easy to decorate the tops of the cabinets with art objects or culinary display items, such as cookbooks or special cookware. The decor tends to emphasize bright spaces with large windows that survey the city and the harbor.

How to List Property

For a seller, the challenges of putting together a listing can at first seem overwhelming. What date was the unit originally constructed, how many square feet does it contain, and when was the last remodel completed? Aside from answering these basic questions, the seller must also attempt to describe a property they are undoubtedly deeply familiar with to someone who has never visited before. Remaining objective and accentuating the best features of the property can be difficult in this situation, which is why we offer a service that helps sellers put together excellent listings and attract fantastic buyers.

Whether the property is a two bedroom two bathroom pre-war remodel or a brand new six bedroom suite, we can help sellers understand how to position their property in the current market. We can also help a seller with recommendations on how to photograph the property to display its best qualities, as well as arrange viewing appointments with buyers who are very interested in the specific amenities of that property. We believe that the best experiences can be conducted quickly by matching like-minded parties. Sellers who contact us will have a much easier and faster time of finding an excellent buyer.
