Description

A serene and inviting one-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath residence, with a home office and loft, in a classic Fort Greene brownstone, thoughtfully updated while preserving historic charm. The home opens onto a gracious living and dining area anchored by a decorative fireplace framed with original bird’s-eye maple wainscoting — a rare wood detail prized for its shimmering grain. Tall ceilings and sun bathed south-facing bay windows flood the space with natural light and warmth, while elegant coved ceilings and hardwood floors lend period charm. The renovated kitchen stands out with unique ice-blue quartz counters, abundant custom shelving, and brand-new cabinetry. The Bertazzoni gas stove, Bosch dishwasher, and vented hood make cooking a breeze. With double exposures overlooking leafy garden views, the primary bedroom feels bright, airy, and tranquil. The ensuite main bath is a jewel box, blending historic elegance with luxurious finishes: an original restored porcelain enamel clawfoot tub, Waterworks fixtures, handcrafted Moroccan zellige tiles, Restoration Hardware mirror, and a calming blue palette. The windowed half bath adds everyday convenience and is finished with classic penny tile for timeless character. Beyond the primary bedroom, a home office (with Velux solar powered skylight that provides abundant light and air) allows endless flexibility for work, guests, or creative use. Above, a sleeping loft expands the possibilities of the home. 214 Carlton showcases design sophistication and thoughtful preservation, with distinctive front doors and an architecturally refined entrance. Nestled on one of Fort Greene’s most charming tree-lined blocks, this boutique co-op offers an unmatched mix of neighborhood charm and convenience. With the park only a block away, world-class culture at BAM, and standout restaurants like Sailor, Miss Ada, Roman’s, Evelina, and many more just outside your door, you’re at the center of Brooklyn’s cultural and culinary heartbeat. Excellent transit options, from the nearby C and G trains to the Dekalb Avenue and Atlantic Terminal hubs, make commuting effortless. A large storage unit conveys with the apartment. Pet-friendly co-op. Please note, subletting is not permitted. Dining table chandelier is excluded from the sale and will be replaced with a standard fixture. If interested in purchasing, inquire about pricing.
