Property Description for 22 Fort Greene Place, TH
Just half a block from Fort Greene Park, this remarkable five-story townhouse offers over 3,700 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space. Featured in Brooklyn Modern, Dwell, and The New York Times, the home seamlessly blends contemporary architecture with the historic character of its surroundings.
A generous entry foyer provides ample room for coats, shoes, bicycles, strollers, and everyday storage. Off the main entrance hall, a fully self-contained duplex with its own kitchen and full bath offers exceptional flexibility, whether used as a guest residence, in-law suite, au pair quarters, private office, creative studio, or separate work space.
The main living level is anchored by an expansive open-plan great room, where floor-to-ceiling windows flood the space with natural light throughout the day. The dining area comfortably accommodates large gatherings and flows effortlessly into a custom chef's kitchen featuring a Wolf range, wine refrigerator, stainless steel appliances, and sleek concrete countertops.
At the heart of the home is a dramatic double-height living room that feels both grand and inviting. Exposed neighboring townhouse walls introduce texture and history, creating a striking contrast to the home's clean modern lines. Vintage Charlotte Perriand wall sconces, soaring ceilings, and a sense of volume rarely found in Brooklyn townhouses make this an exceptional space for entertaining, creating, or simply unwinding. Just beyond, the landscaped backyard extends the living space outdoors, offering a private setting for dining, relaxing, and summer gatherings.
Above, a loft-like media and reading room overlooks the living area below, creating a comfortable retreat complete with custom shelving and a projector for movie nights.
The bedroom level features four well-proportioned bedrooms, two beautifully appointed bathrooms with handmade tile and deep soaking tubs, a walk-in closet, and a dedicated laundry room. One bedroom includes custom-built loft beds, adding a unique architectural element to the space.
The entire top floor is devoted to an extraordinary primary suite. Wrapped in warm wood finishes that evoke a modern cabin retreat, the space includes a king-sized sleeping area, fireplace, concealed television, powder room, and direct access to a private roof deck. The result is a peaceful sanctuary above the city, with a level of privacy and scale rarely available in Fort Greene.
An architecturally significant home in one of Brooklyn's most sought-after neighborhoods, moments from Fort Greene Park and the acclaimed restaurants, cafés, cultural institutions, and transportation that define the area.
