I really enjoyed this scene in @mak3morn fic STATIC on AO3, so I just had to draw it! Look at these goobers ^^^

I’ve been obsessed with Murdermedia and this fic is a must read 📖 I cannot wait for the next chapter 😈

It looks like an ordinary 1910 apt. building in Brooklyn, NYC, but the ground floor condo has a secret Speakeasy. The 2bd, 3ba, 1,319sqft, condo is asking $1.65m.

The living area is really just one large room, and I've seen other units in the building- they look exactly the same, so the the building has been reno'd. It's a lot of money, but NYC is out of control.

It has a nice exposed brick wall, and column, plus stylish spiral stairs.

The kitchen space.

I took the video tour w/Samir from Zillow Gone Wild, and made a few screenshots. This is how he measures the kitchen. So, it's only 3 peach butts, which is small. (Note how well Samir has adapted to the American measurement system.)

There's room for 4 at the kitchen counter, but there's also plenty of space for a table in the corner.

Nice half bath.

So, this is a duplex and the spiral stairs access the 2nd level. The washer/dryer are gold in NYC.

The primary bedroom is fairly spacious and has a double closet.

It also has a 3pc. ensuite with a double sink.

The 2nd bd. is smaller and has a great old brick wall- look at the outline of the window that used to be there.

It also has a 3pc. ensuite. Love floating sinks.

The listing doesn't show the entrance to the speakeasy, so I took screenshots. In the main living area, next to the dining set, there was a bench on top of a throw rug. Samir moved it, b/c it bothered him, and there was the trap door.

I wonder how they discovered this- maybe they knew that there was basement b/c it's a ground floor apt. Anyway, this is the entrance to the speakeasy. (They keep a hook on the window still to open it, and when he pulled it open, the whole frame lifted, so the door isn't secure, it's just laid loosely in the hole.)

They didn't neatly break thru the floor- the opening is pretty jagged. But, it has a great shape- looks like it was a sewer and would also make a great rathskeller, should you want to do a German style theme, or a mead hall, if you wanted to do a Viking/Beowulf theme, b/c this apt. needs some color & character.

When you come the ladder, you're behind the bar. How did they get this seating thru that opening? Behind the red curtain there's a storage area.
