About This Home

As of May 2025

Welcome to 159 Adelphi Street in Fort Greene, Brooklyn. This two family home was a gut renovation and everything inside is completely brand spanking new! The owner's unit is a triplex with four bedroom's and three and a half bathrooms. The rental apartment is a one bedroom apartment with outdoor space. You can easily convert the rental apartment and make the property a single family home if desired.
Nothing was compromised with the design, aesthetic, or construction at 159 Adelphi. The home was taken down to the studs where new beams were added to make sure the floors were perfectly straight and solid. The parlor level consists of an open concept with light from both sides. You'll find a nicely sized living area with dining area and chef's kitchen with Miele appliances and a custom built in wall cabinet for storage galore. There is also a half bathroom. Walk outside and you'll have a deck off the kitchen where you can step down into your own private outdoor sanctuary.
On the second floor, you'll find three nicely sized bedrooms and two bathrooms. Each bedroom has a closet and one of the bedrooms has an en suite bathroom. There is also laundry off the hallway. On the third floor, you'll find the primary aka master bedroom suite which includes two skylights, a bedroom with alcove, a huge walk in closet and a bathroom with an oversized sky light, separate soaking tub and shower that will make all of your friends jealous!
Did I mention the house comes equipped with central air throughout? Bring your toothbrush and move right in. Come and see your new forever home!
