每個人都在期待這所房子。這是市場上第一次出售，絕對是首次！著名的紐堡和佛羅里達建築師弗朗西斯·阿布魯於1922年為邦頓家族設計並建造了這棟都鐸風格的分層住宅，而該家族不久後便與弗朗西斯的兄弟亨利·阿布魯聯姻。這座房子在每一方面都是定制的，擁有所有原始的照明設備、裝置、配件和五金。它是一個真正的時間膠囊。所有的窗戶看起來都是希望詹姆斯鎮的開窗，配有黃銅配件，令人驚嘆。每個轉角都有有趣的細節，而這種側分層設計簡直令人愉悅。

我們在尋找那位擁有敏感度的買家，希望將這座房子恢復到昔日的優雅。一些修復不值得做，因為質量並不出色，但這座房子是個例外。最初的建設是上等的，經過三代同一家族，工作並未被改動。

更棒的是，這座房子位於巴姆維爾的優越地段，靠近波威爾頓俱樂部，周圍樹木繁茂，且位於非常受歡迎的紐堡學區。房子的吸引力極大。

從前門進入，會看到一個可愛的前廳，通往一個高頂的客廳，擁有當地著名的阿布魯壁爐，其火勢極佳。內置的櫃子和相鄰的窗戶群則定義了迷人的特質。通往餐廳的寬弧形門道兩側有角落櫃，拱門上方的原始晚餐鈴正是1922年時放置的地方。這個空間通向一個有紗窗的陽台，可以繼續招待客人。廚房雖小，但格外明亮，並且目前有一些漂亮的霍斯澤櫃子。後面的廚房陽台通向車道和曾經的雞舍。真有趣。此外，通過廚房可以通往以前的兩車車庫、鍋爐間、洗衣房，以及一間搖擺的1970年代俱樂部房。

回到入口，有六個台階上去，帶你到一個半層，裡面有辦公室、臥室和完整浴室，而登陸區則俯瞰著客廳。這就是這所房子的魅力之一。這個半層再往上是一個另一個半層，通向頂樓，在那裡你會看到兩個最大的臥室和另一間擁有9英尺高天花板的完整浴室。英式都鐸小屋通常不會這麼明亮通透，但高天花板和寬大的窗戶讓它變得如此。

你可能會想，在半英畝的地方應該更外露，但周圍的園景則賦予了這座巴姆維爾路珍寶莊園般的私密性。羅馬建築師維特魯威烏斯曾說，所有偉大的建築必須擁有「堅固、實用和愉悅」；64號巴姆維爾路完全體現了這一句名言。

Everyone has been waiting for this house. First time on the market, ever, ever, ever! Noted Newburgh and Florida Architect Francis Abreu designed and built this Tudor side-split in 1922 for the Boynton family, the clan that shortly after Francis's brother Henry Abreu would marry into. Bespoke in every way, the house has all the original lighting, fittings, fixtures, and hardware. It is a genuine time capsule. All the windows appear to be Hope Jamestown casements with brass fittings which are just extraordinary. There are fun details at every turn and the side-to-side split is just ... delightful.

We are looking for that one buyer that has the sensitivity to return this house to its former elegance. Some restorations are not worth doing because the quality is not there. This house is an exception. The original build was first rate and the work has not been altered even after passing through three generations of the same family.

Even better, it has a marquee Balmville location near the Powelton Club with mature landscaping and is in the very desirable Newburgh School District. The house has enormous curb appeal.

From the front door a lovely vestibule opens to a high ceiling Living Room with one of those locally famous Abreu fireplaces that draws exceptionally well. The fireplace with builtin cupboards and adjacent bank of windows are the definition of charming. A broad archway to the dining room is flanked by corner cupboards and there is an original dinner bell on the arch exactly where it was placed in 1922. The space opens to a screened-in-porch where entertaining may continue. The kitchen is small but exceptionally bright and presently has some nice Hosier cupboards. The rear Kitchen Porch spills down to the drive and a former chicken coop. Go figure. Also thru the kitchen is the stairway down to the former 2-car Garage, Boiler Room, Laundry Room, and a swinging 1970's Club Room.

Back at the entry there are six steps up that bring you to a half level with an Office, Bedroom, and Full Bath, the landing of which overlooks the living room. That's part of the delight of this house. That half level goes up another half level to the top floor where you'll find the two largest bedrooms and another full bath with 9-foot ceilings. It's unusual for a English Tudor Cottage to be this bright and airy but the high ceilings and generous windows make it so.

You would think on a half acre it would be more exposed but the landscaping gives it estate-like privacy that compliments this Balmville Road gem. Roman Architect Vitruvious once said that all great architecture must possess 'firmness, commodity, and delight'; sixty-four Balmville Road embraces that maxim completely. © 2025 OneKey™ MLS, LLC
