307 Adelphi Street is a spectacular 22-foot-wide brownstone perfectly located on a quiet, tree-lined block in prime Fort Greene. Available for immediate occupancy, this beautifully preserved home blends original character with modern updates across four floors plus a cellar, all overlooking a lush 50-foot planted garden.
The garden level offers a full-floor media and entertaining space with direct access to the yard. The parlor floor features an updated eat-in kitchen with garden views, along with a gracious dining and sitting room. The upper floors provide flexibility with the potential for five bedrooms, or four oversized bedrooms plus a home office.
Parks and playgrounds are just down the block, and Fort Greene Park with its Saturday Farmers Market is only a short walk away. Neighborhood favorites such as Sailor, Miss Ada, Evelina, and Olea are all close by, making this one of the most desirable locations in Brooklyn to call home.
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.
