曼哈頓郊外出售的私人島嶼非常便宜

For $850,000, you could buy a shoebox in Brooklyn. But why not pick up a private island instead?

花85萬(wàn)美元，在布魯克林只能買一個(gè)鞋盒，那么為什么不選擇一個(gè)私人島嶼呢?

Just 60 miles north of Manhattan, a small island with a wee house has hit the market. Known as Willow Island, the speck of land in Putnam County — whose dock is a 10-minute drive from New Fairfield, Conn., to the east — is encircled by large trees.

在曼哈頓以北60英里處，一個(gè)有小房子的小島已經(jīng)進(jìn)入市場(chǎng)。這片名為柳樹島的土地位于普特南縣，其碼頭距離康涅狄格州新費(fèi)爾菲爾德市東部只有10分鐘的車程，四周環(huán)繞著大樹。

In the middle of serene Putnam Lake, the island has a four-bedroom, 1½-bath house smack dab in the center.

在寧?kù)o的普特南湖的中央，島上有一個(gè)四居室，半浴室在房中。

Built in 1932, the two-story, 1,922-square-foot Colonial house has 35 windows, multiple docks and is accessible only by boat.

這棟建于1932年的殖民時(shí)期的兩層樓高、1922平方英尺(約合927平方米)的房子有35扇窗戶，多個(gè)碼頭，只能乘船進(jìn)入。

In fact, the fully furnished house comes with its own solar-powered boat, because motorized boats are a banned on the lake. Ah, the sound of silence!

事實(shí)上，全套家具的房子有自己的太陽(yáng)能船，因?yàn)闄C(jī)動(dòng)船在湖里是被禁止的。啊，沉默的聲音!

But wait, there’s more: The property includes a separately deeded private driveway with a garage on the mainland, presumably for a place to park your wheels before getting on the water.

不過(guò)，等等，還有更多的：這處房產(chǎn)包括一條單獨(dú)鋪設(shè)的私人車道，在陸地上有一個(gè)車庫(kù)，大概是在上水前停車的地方。

On land, there’s also a 600-square-foot space “ideal for a yoga & meditation studio,” according to the listing with Linda Finn and Regan Andrews of Houlihan Lawrence.

據(jù)豪利漢勞倫斯(Houlihan Lawrence)的琳達(dá)芬恩(Linda Finn)和里根安德魯斯(Regan Andrews)介紹，在陸地上，還有一個(gè)600平方英尺的空間“是瑜伽和冥想工作室的理想場(chǎng)所”。

“It’s the perfect place to write the next great American novel!” the listing copy adds.

“這是寫下一部偉大的美國(guó)小說(shuō)的完美地方!”清單副本補(bǔ)充道。
