A private entry and stair hall lead to the parlor floor (where the half bath is) which is linked to the living room through double pocket doors. A fireplace and a built-in green bookcase opposite it, wood floors covered with a patchwork rug, a cabinet piano and sundry upholstered items of furniture – all these are to be found in the living room. The center island kitchen contains yellow cupboards and cabinets, vintage as well as modern-looking appliances, a red fridge, red bar stools and a breakfast banquette. At the back of the parlor floor there is a small-sized dining room whose huge window looks out over the backyard.  Its door leads to a tiny balcony and the stairs lead to the lower level garden area.

It would be interesting to hear who the next owner is going to be – and then see if their personalities match Mr. Hawke’s just by their taste in home decorating.
