Penthouse C at 215 Lafayette Avenue is a masterfully designed duplex residence that blends timeless elegance with modern luxury at the crossroads of Clinton Hill and Fort Greene, Brooklyn.

Set atop a boutique condominium within a beautifully restored Italianate mansion, this 1,821-square-foot three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath home offers gracious proportions, private outdoor space, and stunning skyline and tree-lined views.

The heart of the home is the expansive, light-filled living and entertaining space with soaring ceilings and custom detailing throughout. 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.

Thoughtful design details abound: oak floors, thick base moldings, sound dampening windows, custom Hunter Douglas window treatments throughout, custom transFORM closets and built-ins and richly painted walls. Additional modern comforts include a full-sized, vented gas washer and dryer, dimmable lighting throughout, multi-zone LG HVAC system, Navian tankless on demand water heater and a private basement storage closet.

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.

Enjoy world-class cultural institutions like BAM and Barclays Center nearby, with unbeatable access to nearly every subway line at Atlantic Terminal.

This is house-like living without the renovation headache - all in a pet-friendly, move-in-ready condo. Please call to schedule your showing.
