Property Description for 239 Carlton Ave, 4

239 Carlton Avenue is a grand nearly 25' Greek Revival townhouse on one of Brooklyn's most desirable blocks which has been painstakingly converted in to four new luxury condominium residences. Built in 1845 this landmark building is one of the oldest homes in Fort Greene with a beautiful brick facade, an ornate cast iron parlor floor balcony, and is of an architectural pedigree rarely seen. Unit 4 occupies the entire fourth floor with cathedral ceilings with exposed, nearly 200 year old beams. The main floor is 1015 square feet and there is an additional 210 square foot loft space. There is a small useable Juliet balcony off the living room. Both bedrooms are huge and incredibly sunny with oversized windows right at tree-top height. The front of this home faces gorgeous 19th century townhouses and the rear overlooks a beautiful Gothic chapel giving it the feel of a European country house. The kitchen is Italian made and installed by Scavolini with quartz counters and fully integrated appliances by Smeg and Bosch, and fixtures by Hansgrohe. The bathrooms feature imported Italian tiling and vanities, a Therapy Whirlpool tub in the main bath, and German-made plumbing fixtures. This gorgeous home has all new electric, heating, AC, new dark stained hardwood floors, and windows. There is a video intercom, surround speaker system, and a washer/dryer. Your new home is located in the heart of Fort Greene on a lush tree-lined block steps to superb dining and boutique shopping on DeKalb Avenue, Fort Greene Park, BAM, and is one stop to Manhattan.

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.
