Property Description for 162 Washington Park, 2

162 Washington Park #2 is an exceptional duplex CONDO on one of Fort Greene's most coveted blocks, DIRECTLY ACROSS FROM FORT GREENE PARK! With over 1,000 feet of indoor living space plus a 660 SQUARE FOOT PRIVATE GARDEN, this home is incredibly spacious, inside and out. High ceilings and over-sized windows greet you as you enter through the parlor level of this beautiful four-story brownstone. With a view of the garden through three huge windows, the enormous living room gets fantastic light, offers charming exposed brick and plenty of room to carve out an area for dining. The galley style kitchen features a farm-style double sink, butcher block countertops and an abundance of storage and workspace, including a large pantry closet. The renovated full bath has classic tile, a pedestal sink, and modern fixtures. The lower level of the duplex, currently used as a large master suite, has plenty of room to create a home office or den. The half bath and washer dryer are found on this floor, along with three additional closets and under-the-stair storage. As if living across from the park were not enough, through the master suite is the lush and large private garden, perfect for barbecuing, gardening, or just relaxing. The apartment has wide-plank hardwood floors and fantastic closet space throughout, and, since it is in the back of the building, is incredibly quiet and tranquil. The location, as well, is simply wonderful--on Fort Greene Park with its weekend farmer's market, tennis courts, playgrounds, and open space, between all the restaurants and shops of DeKalb and Myrtle Avenues, with Citi Bike on the block and the BAM cultural district and multiple subway lines (C,G, B M, Q R, 2, 3, 4, 5) and LIRR a few blocks away. Housed in a five unit, four-story brownstone, the condo is beautifully maintained and financially solid. Pets upon approval.

Fort Greene | Brooklyn

Quick Profile

Conveniently situated just north of the beautiful and lush Prospect Park, Fort Greene is rich with history. Representative of an aesthetic that Brooklyn is often associated with--the brownstone and row house architecture being an institution of the community--Fort Greene is decidedly singular in visual style. As part of the National Register of Historic Places, this South Brooklyn neighborhood offers unique charm and plenty of character.

Beginning with its early military-oriented inception (the territory was central to the Battle of Long Island), Fort Greene has always been recognized for its spaciousness and a sense of openness. Filled with nature and greenery, it is also home to its very own eponymously named park in addition to being in close proximity to Brooklyn’s largest recreational area, Prospect Park (containing the beloved Prospect Park Zoo within it). 

Many residents come from different socioeconomic backgrounds and commute to their workplaces in Manhattan, while keeping Fort Greene as their separate haven. The diversity of the area has proven to be one of the few examples of a Brooklyn neighborhood maintaining its roots in part thanks to its protected status.
