The chef’s kitchen is a true showpiece - featuring custom gray cabinetry, Carrara marble countertops and book-matched slab backsplashes, dual pedestal islands for prep and dining, Miele appliances, and a fully vented professional-grade stove.
The bathrooms are equally luxurious, combining marble and limestone with rich wood accents, Waterworks fixtures, radiant heated floors, and custom walnut medicine cabinets.

The crown jewel of the home is the awe-inspiring 436-square-foot private roof deck-offering panoramic views of Manhattan and Brooklyn’s verdant canopy. The deck features a custom cedar pergola, top-of-the-line Kamado Joe grill, and Bull outdoor refrigerator.
Located on a quiet, landmarked block between Vanderbilt and Clinton Avenues, you’ll be surrounded by historic architecture and some of Brooklyn’s most prestigious homes. Top-tier dining is just around the corner at Roman’s, Olea, Aita, Walter’s, Evelina, Miss Ada and Sailor. Fort Greene Park-designed by Frederick Law Olmsted-is just a short stroll away, offering tennis courts, walking trails, a Greenmarket, and off-leash dog hours.
