About This Property
Carlton Mews Townhomes The soul of a classic townhouse, infused with the modern elegance of a five-star hotel.
Welcome to Carlton Mews Townhomes, perfectly situated on Carlton Avenue in Fort Greene’s Historic Landmark District—one of Brooklyn’s most admired streets, recently named by L Magazine among the best places to live. Here, timeless architecture meets contemporary luxury just steps from Fort Greene Park, acclaimed restaurants, and boutique shops.
This five-level legal two-family townhouse offers approximately 5,200 square feet of meticulously finished living space. It can remain in its current configuration or be effortlessly transformed into a single-family masterpiece. A beautifully landscaped garden extends from the living room deck, while a fully finished roof deck crowns the home, providing panoramic views and a serene private retreat among the treetops.
Inside, soaring ceilings, abundant natural light, and open-plan living areas create an atmosphere of both grandeur and warmth. The gourmet kitchen features custom cabinetry topped with white marble, Sub Zero appliances, a Viking range, and a Sub Zero wine cooler—all enhanced by antique hardware and refined lighting.
The home includes six bedrooms, five and a half baths, two kitchens, a den, a study, and a spacious laundry room. The primary suite features double sinks, marble walls, a soaking tub, and a glass enclosed shower, while the secondary baths combine modern luxury with timeless design using dark stone and penny tile floors.
Throughout the residence, every detail has been carefully considered—Pella windows, five inch-wide plank oak floors, Grohe and Toto fixtures, Italian marble, solid core doors, a gas fireplace, and bronzed Emtek hardware showcase impeccable craftsmanship and enduring quality.
Whether you’re entertaining on the garden terrace, relaxing by the fire, or unwinding on the rooftop under a canopy of trees, Carlton Mews offers a rare sanctuary of sophistication in one of Brooklyn’s most coveted neighborhoods.
Welcome home to Carlton Mews.
