About This Home

As of December 2024

Welcome to 124 Dekalb Avenue, a one-of-a-kind architectural masterpiece in the heart of Fort Green, Brooklyn. Originally constructed as a water tower, this extraordinary 25' wide by 77' deep steel-frame property offers a rare and expansive 5,775 square feet of uninterrupted space with a private 2-car garage. The open and flexible layout across three main levels, provides a unique canvas to design your dream home.

This residence not boasts modern luxury but also carries a rich, culturally significant history. Formerly serving as a NYC Fire House for Engine 257, it was also designated as a civil defense bomb shelter, standing as a resilient symbol of Brooklyns past. For over two decades, the building was a production studio for one of the boroughs most beloved filmmakers, adding to its storied legacy.

Step inside and experience expansive living spaces filled with natural light from multiple skylights, soaring ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows. The chefs kitchen is outfitted with high-end stainless steel appliances and custom cabinetry, offering the perfect blend of style and function. The primary suite is a tranquil retreat, featuring a marble double vanity and glass enclosed walk-in shower with plenty of built in closets.

The crown jewels of this property are its two breathtaking roof decks. These private outdoor sanctuaries provide panoramic views of the city skyline, perfect for alfresco dining, sunbathing, or hosting elegant soires. Whether you're watching the sunset or enjoying a starry night, these roof decks elevate the living experience to a new level of luxury.

Located in a vibrant historical neighborhood with Fort Greene park across the street with cafes, bars, BAM, and Barclay center mere blocks away, 124 Dekalb Avenue offers the perfect blend of cultural history and modern luxury.
