Description

Imagine making your home in verdant Fort Greene, one of the most sought-after neighborhoods in the city. In this peaceful yet vibrant enclave, sidewalks are lined by leafy trees, and stately historic townhouses deliver an attractive streetscape and a glimpse into a bygone era of grandeur and craftsmanship. Available for the first time in 30 years, 359 Adelphi Street is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to acquire the perfect canvas for your Fort Greene dream home. Constructed in 1859, the beautiful Italianate rowhouse offers an expansive footprint for luxurious living and lavish entertaining with 4,760 square feet of living space across four levels and a full cellar. A delightful forecourt garden and massive 840-square-foot rear garden add a wonderful indoor-outdoor flow to the 20.83-foot-wide townhouse. Lovingly restored and currently configured with five bedrooms, four bathrooms and three living spaces, the building's possibilities are endless. Restore the rowhouse to a stunning single-family residence, create a spacious two-family arrangement or revitalize the building with contemporary rental units sure to fetch top-of-the-market prices (as was recently done next door). This rare residence is positioned within the Fort Greene Historic District an ultra-desirable neighborhood that has been a favorite of New York professionals, creatives and celebrities for more than 150 years. From this quintessential Brownstone Brooklyn block, you'll enjoy easy access to lush Fort Greene Park, an idyllic "town square" that act as a neighborhood hub and the site of a thriving year-round greenmarket. Less than a mile south, sprawling Prospect Park and the Brooklyn Museum, Library and Botanic Garden delight mind and body. Fantastic dining, nightlife and shopping venues line the nearby blocks, including Atlantic Terminal Mall, Apple and Whole Foods. A bit further, City Point BKLYN features Dekalb Market Hall, Trader Joe's and Target. With Barclays Center and BAM close by, world-class entertainment is mere minutes away. Transportation options are abundant with C, G, B/D, N/Q/R, 2/3, 4/5 and LIRR trains, excellent bus service and CitiBikes all within reach.
