Property Description for 159 Carlton Ave, 4-B
Just in time for spring. The penthouse apartment at the landmarked Feuchtwanger Stables in Fort Greene is a true two bedroom apartment with a desirable open plan layout, high ceilings and a large view facing roof deck. Designated by the National Register of Historic Places, the historic Romanesque Revival building is made up of 12 condominium apartments converted in 1988.
Authentic loft living abounds in this voluminous 1,050 square foot home with east/west exposures, which create fantastic natural light during the day and the coveted sunset magic. The well-appointed kitchen flows into the dining and living area, which in turn leads out to a private roof deck that offers over 500 square feet with city views. The updated kitchen features granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. Both bedrooms are well proportioned and there is ample closet space throughout the apartment. There is an in-unit washer/dryer. The combined monthly charges are a very reasonable $710. Pets allowed.
This is prime Fort Greene living with direct access to Fort Greene Park, the BAM Cultural District, the thriving Myrtle Avenue and Fulton Avenue corridors, DeKalb Avenue's restaurant row and more.

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.
