About This Home

As of May 2024

Just when you thought all the condos on the market in Fort Greene, Brooklyn are either too much or not enough space, this gut-renovated 1700+ sq ft duplex condo nestled just a block from Fort Greene Park comes to market!

159 Carlton Avenue #1C is a stunning 2-bedroom, convertible to 3-bedroom, 2 full bath home in the heart of Fort Greene, Brooklyn. Its layout is open, yet sophisticated, offering the lofty, industrial chic feel you want with the structure you need in a home.

Its upper level offers a massive 22' living room with 12' beamed ceilings, polished concrete and engineered oak flooring, enormous aluminum sash windows, exposed brick, plus ducted wood-burning fireplace and built-ins. As you can see in the video tour, this space naturally flows into a spacious, accommodating dining area.

Adjacent, a tastefully-designed kitchen offers an enormous island with white quartz countertop, a one-piece Calacatta gold marble backsplash, stainless appliances from Futuro and Paykel, Samsung, Asko and Bosch with tons of built-ins with all the prep and storage space you could imagine! If you love to entertain, this open-style kitchen will never have you isolated from your guests. There is one absolutely stunning full bath with subway tile and brass fixtures from Restoration Hardware and a Mitsubishi split-system CAC with hyper heat technology.

Its lower level offers 2 full bedrooms with reach-in closets and one full bath with an enormous rain shower room with Nero Marquina marble walls, a luxurious deep soaking tub, dual sinks and hex tile floors. Plus, there is a 6-person red oak Finnish-style sauna with towel heater. There is also a laundry room with utility sink and new oversized stackable washer/dryer.

159 Carlton Avenue is a 12-unit 4 story charming boutique condominium in Fort Greene Brooklyn with curb appeal. It was built in the 19th century as the Feuchtwanger Public Carriage House and Stables and is on the National Register of Historic Places. Well-located just one block from Fort Greene Park, its close proximity to BAM, fine eateries, shoppes, boutiques and all trains truly make it a must-see.
