Description

Consisting of just three unique duplexes, 215 Lafayette Avenue in Fort Greene, Brooklyn is a masterfully crafted boutique condo that promises its buyers a modern design experience within the timeless shell of an historic Italianate mansion. Designed and built by the Meshberg Group, architects well-regarded for their sensitive and innovative conversions of Landmarked buildings throughout Brownstone Brooklyn, these three homes all offer private outdoor space, gracious proportions, and absolutely stunning kitchens and bathrooms with a nod to the rich details of the past and the comforts of the present. This parlor floor duplex-the most coveted floor in every brownstone, just one stoop up-is a 1760 SF three bedroom, 2.5 bath home with stunning garden and tree top views, dramatic 11.5' ceilings, and a spacious private balcony large enough for dining and gardening. The finish quality is beyond your wildest dreams. You will also enjoy a large formal dining room, AND a separate living room with the most amazing kitchen you have ever seen conveniently located in between featuring two stunning marble islands for cooking and just hanging out.True chefs kitchens are a handsome backdrop to the oversized and high-ceilinged entertaining spaces and have been fashioned of custom gray cabinetry, Carrara marble countertops and book-matched slab backsplashes, Miele appliances and unique dual pedestal eating and prep islands. The professional stoves are fully vented. The spacious bathrooms include a subtle and enduring combination of marble and limestone with a well-appointed outline of wood detailing, Waterworks hardware, custom walnut medicine cabinets and radiant heated floors. The opulent historic details associated with the neighboring landmarked homes have been re-crafted for today to add a depth to the design not normally associated with condo living. They include custom wainscoting in the living rooms, thick base and ceiling moldings, wood mullioned windows, oak herringbone floors and richly painted walls. The full-sized gas washer and dryers in every unit are also fully vented, and dimmers have been provided on all light switches for a move-in ready lifestyle. Each unit also comes with its own basement storage closet.All three units have stunning tree-lined views that look out on to some of the oldest iconic homes in Brooklyn from the front, and pastoral garden and city views from the back. You will be surrounded by some of the most prestigious addresses in Brooklyn, including Eastlake-style homes built and preserved by the Pratts, the Vanderbilts, and the Underwoods, just around the corner. Conveniently situated between Vanderbilt and Clinton Avenues, on a treasured and quiet Landmark block, with world-class dining in every direction at Romans, Aita, Olea, Emily, Walters, and the Finch, to name a few. The world famous Olmstead designed Fort Green park offers tennis, walking trails, a weekly Greenmarket, and off-leash dog hours just a few blocks away, and of course you will never be far from culture and convenience at BAM and Barclays center and every single subway line at Atlantic Center. Enjoy the convenience of a condo that offers house-like proportions without the headache of a renovation. Immediate closings and dog friendly. Showings will be by private appointment only at this time. Please call 917-494-2503 to schedule your showing.
