Step Inside The NYC Home Clinton Staffer Joe Lockhart Is Selling For $10.5 Million
A Washington D.C. power couple is saying their goodbyes to Brooklyn. Bill Clinton's former press secretary, Joe Locker, and his wife, Giovanna Gray Locker, have listed their Brooklyn townhouse for $10.5 million, according to StreetEasy. The pair bought the townhouse in 2019 for $8.99 million, per the New York Post. They also sold their last Washington estate to the Obamas back in 2017, so this isn't their first time trying to sell their home. It seems as though the Lockers are ready for a nest outside of Brooklyn after three years of living in the townhouse.
The Brooklyn residence sits on an expansive corner at 15 Willow St. and is about 6,200 square feet. It has six bedrooms and six bathrooms all spread out over four floors, plus a garden and cellar floor, according to Zillow. The red brick building is the perfect home for a family with many kids and even a few animals.
Multiple private outdoor areas
Joe Locker and Giovanna Gray Locker's gorgeous Brooklyn residence fits the criteria for every dream home, especially with its private parking, a luxury and rarity in New York City. While it sits on a small corner in the busy streets of the borough, the abode is surrounded by other massive buildings. It also has its own private garden that is located adjacent to the building, where you enter through a garage-like door, according to Zillow. The garden leads to multiple entrances of the townhouse.
Each floor level has its own private balcony and roof access that overlooks the garden as well as the entire city. One of the balconies even has its own lounging area with a private jacuzzi and a couple of gray sofas, rendering it a great hang-out spot. Another balcony is accessed from the garden that has a green picnic bench overlooking the greenery. All of the terraces are lined with beautiful pots of green plants and multiple small shrubs along the brick wall.
Gorgeous and intricate interior décor
Even though Joe Locker and Giovanna Gray Locker's townhouse has multiple entrances, the main entrance is easily the one that should always be used. The foyer has stunning marble flooring with a gold light fixture hanging above it, per Zillow. There are multiple doors leading to other rooms, and moving through the foyer you're greeted with a beautiful wooden staircase leading up to the other floors. While there is a staircase, there's also an elevator that can be used, which can come in handy when the future homeowners move in.
The living room is located next to the staircase, surrounded by a white interior and completed with wood flooring. It has a striking brick fireplace with the most amazing intricate engravings, too. Massive floor-to-ceiling windows fill the space with natural light while a teal sofa with white lounge chairs take center stage. A separate dining table is located right next to the modern furniture.
Just on the other side of the staircase is the gorgeous chef's kitchen. It has white cabinetry on the top half and blue cabinetry on the bottom separated by a marble backsplash. The kitchen island has a marble countertop and a blue base that matches the cabinets with subway tile on the inside where the chairs rest.
Double vanity ensuite bathrooms
On the second floor of Joe Locker and Giovanna Gray Locker's townhouse, the master suite is located; it has a huge walk-in closet with a large amount of storage and massive windows that let in tons of light. There's a small hallway from the closet that leads to the master bathroom which has periwinkle cabinets and claw tub, as noted by Zillow. There's also a double vanity next to the walk-in glass door shower. Additionally, the master bedroom is encased with automatic shades and a gas fireplace. The third floor has three other bedrooms and another master suite bathroom to be shared with its own smaller double vanity, clawfoot tub, and subway tile walk-in shower.
The fourth floor has its own lounging room with multiple white couches and a flat screen television. It has direct access to the lounging patio with the jacuzzi along with a small kitchen, which is extremely convenient if you don't want to go down two flights of stairs. The cellar room holds 300 bottles of wine neatly stacked against the wall in a controlled temperature next to an arched brick wine tasting alcove to round out the elegance of the residence.
