If These Homes Were Cocktails: Real Estate, Shaken Not Stirred

  
5 Min Read

Some listings are cool and classic. Others are a little bubbly, a little bold, maybe even a little tropical. Kind of like cocktails. So, we played matchmaker. From a moody Brooklyn loft that channels a Negroni to a Palm Beach condo with serious Piña Colada energy, these homes serve looks and vibes. Stirred, shaken, or staged to perfection—just don’t blame us if you start craving a drink and a new address.

Manhattan

Cocktail vibe: Sophisticated, urban, upscale

If this listing were a cocktail, it’d come in cut crystal with a twist—something you’d take in slowly while looking out at the skyline. The space has the same kind of intention behind it, with sleek finishes, floor-to-ceiling windows, and a serpentine walnut staircase that winds between the two levels. It’s giving Manhattan: bold, elegant, and built for city living in its most iconic form.

Curious how to mix one? Here’s the classic recipe.

Negroni

66 Washington Avenue  - Apartment #3

Cocktail vibe: Spirit-forward, smooth, edgy, artsy

With exposed brick, inky black floors, and a crimson velvet sofa as the visual centerpiece, this Clinton Hill loft doesn’t whisper Negroni—it pours one. Arched doorways and exposed beams bring just the right amount of drama. The layout is open and unexpected, and even the brass-wrapped peninsula feels more cocktail lounge than cookspace. It’s a little moody, a little edgy, and entirely unforgettable.?

203 Prince Street

Cocktail vibe: Storied, seasoned, grounded, traditional

Built in 1834—right around the time the Old Fashioned first appeared—203 Prince Street is one of Soho’s last remaining merchant townhouses, and it wears its history well. With original sash windows, onyx fireplaces, and Federal–Greek Revival details, the home has a quiet confidence that doesn’t try too hard. Like the cocktail, it’s stood the test of time—and it’s better savored than rushed.?

Born in Paris and etched into cocktail history by the likes of Fitzgerald and Hemingway, the French?75 is all sparkle and celebration—exactly the kind of energy 15 East 63rd Street brings to the Upper East Side. With mirrored walls, soaring ceilings, and French windows that look out over 63rd Street, this Gilded Age limestone mansion sets the stage for something special. It doesn’t just host champagne moments—it feels like one. It’s elegant and celebratory, with a wink of drama.

This Palm Beach condo knows exactly what it’s doing. With coral accents, rattan textures, and palm views from a wraparound balcony, it brings vacation energy without going over the top. Everything feels soft, airy, and considered—like a Piña Colada made with the good rum, fresh coconut cream, and a sugar rim just because. It’s tropical, but tailored. Beachy, but polished. And yes, you’ll want to sip something cold the second you step on the balcony.?

Built in the 1920s and honored with a preservation award, this Palm Beach home has the kind of timeless appeal you don’t need to mess with—just like a Mojito. Inside, arched doorways and a breezy, open layout bring in that old-world charm. Outside, palms frame a private courtyard, and painted tile steps add a playful splash of color as you move between indoors and out. It’s relaxed, storied, and quietly cool. You’ll want to muddle your way into this one.
