Description

Stepping into the 1,535 square foot home, this three bed two bath charming loft greets you with soaring 12' ceilings and a layout perfect for entertaining. Beautiful hardwood floors were just refinished throughout the entire loft.

The large chef's kitchen is equipped with stainless steel appliances, Caesarstone stone counter tops, as well as ample amount of counter space and storage space. The kitchen is open to a huge living and dining area complete with three oversized windows allowing for nature light to fill the space during the day. A wood burning fireplace anchors the space accompanied by built in storage on either side. A full guest bathroom is also located behind the kitchen, perfectly tucked away and hidden out of sight.

On the opposite side of the loft, you will find three generously proportioned bedrooms. The primary bedroom has a wall-to-wall custom closet and a five-piece, en-suite bathroom complete with spacious soaking tub and double vanity with great additional storage.

Just one block from Fort Greene Park, this landmarked building from 1888 was once the Feuchtwanger Stables and has been designated by the National Register of Historic Places. Steps from Dekalb Ave, Brooklyn's top dining destination, with restaurant favorites Evelina, Romans and Walters to name a few. Pop Culture Fun fact, 159 Carlton Ave is where Notorious B.I.G. wrote the "Ready to Die" album. Some images have been virtually staged. Please contact us for an in-person showing at your convenience.
