More than two centuries ago, Rose Hill was a farm on the banks of the East River with 260 apple trees and 9,000 young fruit trees. The owners had a thriving nursery across 92 acres when it was listed for sale in 1790. Today, the neighborhood boasts world-class dining, museums, architecture, entertainment and homes. REALTOR® extraordinaire Heather Cooper (https://heathersellsnyc.com/) called us to paint a residence before listing it for sale. She found the walls and ceilings a bit dingy and sporting some kids’ early attempts at artistic expression.

Fresh paint is the most easy, inexpensive way to brighten a home going on the market, and our professional tradesmen excel in precision painting. Reluctantly, they completely repaired and painted the walls with no more hint of a budding Van Gogh or Wyeth as a previous young resident. Wickham Gray is a reliable neutral, along with timeless Chantilly Lace white on ceilings, trim and doors. Both provide the perfect color complement with hardwood floors and perhaps a new canvas for another youngster with an artistic bent.

Brooklyn Heights exudes an energetic vibe among historic homes on tree-lined streets, brownstones and prewar buildings, as well as lofts in former industrial digs and new high-rise condos. It’s an amalgamation of all things Big Apple folks crave – shops, eateries, parks, entertainment and commuter convenience. Life has a lot of moving parts, and one family needed to sell their apartment. It’s a unique space which required brighter paint and fresh wall coats to impress prospective buyers.

Benjamin Moore’s Chantilly Lace paint was selected for its universal appeal and being “as delicate and refined as the lace it was named after. This crisp, clean white evokes images of pure silk, soft linen and simpler times.” [credit: Benjamin Moore] It’s the perfect complement to the classy golden oak parquet flooring and natural daylight. With a view of Manhattan, this newly and expertly painted residence just may attract a writer like ones who have claimed this neighborhood to be their home: Walt Whitman, Truman Capote, Norman Mailer.
