With over 1000sf of interior square footage and 660sf of private outdoor space, this is a rare and unique opportunity to own a spacious and character-filled 1BR/1.5BA brownstone condo duplex in a prime location right on Fort Greene Park. Located on one of the most coveted, charming and picturesque brownstone blocks - this property is quiet and tranquil, with abundant natural light, an incredible volume of space, and unique charm.
The first floor of the duplex features a massive living room with a decorative fireplace, 10’ ceilings and three over-sized (nearly 8’ tall) East-facing windows overlooking the lush greenery of your own private garden. The duplex features hardwood floors throughout, exposed and whitewashed brick walls, and decorative moulding, all with an abundance of closet and storage space.
Just off the entry hall there is a perfect home office nook, a large double-wide coat closet, as well as a full bath. The renovated bathroom features a classic aesthetic with a contemporary touch, a porcelain pedestal sink, vintage floor tile, and a walk-in shower.
Framed by a semi-round arched opening, the farmhouse chic kitchen opens onto the living room with white Shaker-style paneled cabinetry, butcher block counter-tops, a double sink with garbage disposal, full sized GE appliances, polished nickel hardware, and a large pantry closet. A wonderful entertaining space, the open style kitchen and abundance of living room space allows for a dining area and the perfect setting for dinner parties or a place for friends and family to gather.
The lower floor of the duplex is currently used as a king-sized master bedroom suite. Equal in scale to the floor above - this garden level oversized bedroom has three large closets, under stair storage, a renovated half bath (with potential to convert to full bath), an in-unit washer dryer, two half windows and door access to the private outdoor space.
From the master suite one accesses the pièce de résistance of this property - your very own 660sf private yard. Basked in sun, the two-tiered lush outdoor space is a gardener’s dream fitted with blue stone pavers, mature trees, and a perimeter garden with an irrigation system. Quiet and serene, the abundant outdoor space allows for outdoor dining, grilling, lounge area, and more.
Originally built in 1885 and converted to condominium in 2004, 162 Washington Park is a well maintained 17’ wide brownstone condominium with 5 residences located directly across from Fort Greene Park. Located in one of Brooklyn’s most desirable neighborhoods, you have convenient access to multiple subway lines (C/G trains in closest proximity, but also easy access to B/Q/2/3/4/5/LIRR at Atlantic Terminal and a multitude of other lines nearby), a plethora of restaurants and shopping nearby on DeKalb and Myrtle, as well as Trader Joe’s, Wegman’s, Whole Foods, and the weekly farmer’s markets all within walking distance.
