The Charm of Carlton Avenue

As the designated Streeteasy and Zillow expert for 239 Carlton Avenue, this three story townhome in Fort Green is truly special. Perhaps the prettiest block in the entire neighborhood, Carlton Avenue spans several blocks and features turn of the century townhomes with lots of charm. Only seps from Fort Green Park, luxury living in Brooklyn doesn’t get much better than this one! In recent years, many older buildings in the area have been converted to luxury Condominiums. If you are lucky enough and catch lightening in a bottle, some Condominiums are available to renters. And of course, there is plenty of street parking in the vicinity but make certain to get there early.

In 2016, I was fortunate enough to have sold unit #3 at 239 Carlton Avenue. At the time, the building was under conversion to three luxury Condominium units. While it took awhile for the building to achieve the temporary certificate of occupancy from the City, it was well worth the wait. Since then, this Apartment has served as an excellent investment Apartment for the Owner. With no shortage of prospective tenants for this unit, the demand is always strong when the Apartment hits the open market. There is something special about this building and the charm it possesses. Some of the reasons this Townhome draws so much desire is because of the following reasons below.
