Welcome to 216 Adelphi Street, a beautifully restored four-story brownstone located in the heart of Fort Greene. This thoughtfully renovated home offers a seamless blend of historic charm and modern luxury, with original architectural details, a designer kitchen and bathrooms, and an impeccably landscaped garden.

Measuring 20 feet wide and 45 feet deep, the home offers exceptional proportions and a layout designed for both comfort and style. The parlor floor is especially impressive, with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking Adelphi Street, restored original floors and moldings, and a powder room. The rear of the parlor is home to a stunning open kitchen and dining room, featuring custom sunflower yellow cabinetry, sleek black countertops, open shelving, and a built-in upholstered banquette. Appliances include a vented six-burner Smeg range, vintage-inspired Smeg refrigerator, and a Miele dishwasher. French doors lead to a spacious deck with stairs down to a beautifully landscaped garden complete with new cedar fencing, irrigated planting beds, and a large patio.

On the third floor, you'll find two spacious bedrooms, each with custom closets and beautifully designed en-suite baths. The top floor includes two additional large bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a versatile bonus room ideal for a nursery or home office.

The garden level functions as a flexible one-bedroom apartment, perfect for guests or rental income, with a large living and kitchen area featuring walnut countertops, stainless steel appliances, built-in bookshelves, and access to the garden. The finished basement adds even more usable space with a newly poured concrete floor, laundry center, and home gym area.
Additional upgrades include all new windows, new brownstone facade, new mechanicals, new electrical, and a dedicated AV closet connecting indoor and outdoor built-in speakers.
216 Adelphi Street is two short blocks to Ft Greene Park, and moments from adored restaurants Evelina, Colonia Verde, Sailor, Saraghina Caffe and so many others.
