The Norwood, 161 Adelphi Street, #1

Enjoy the perfect combination of historic details and modern updates in this pristine converted one-bedroom, 2-bath duplex home in sought-after Fort Greene. Beautiful light and neighborhood views welcome you into the upper level of this 900-square-foot condo. A gorgeous brick wall and decorative fireplace add prewar charm while stunning custom light fixtures nod to Brooklyn’s rich industrial past. Flawless blonde hardwood floors will usher you to the spacious open kitchen where more exposed brick provides an interesting contrast to sleek modern cabinetry, butcher block counters and state-of-the-art stainless steel appliances, including a French door refrigerator, vented gas range, microwave and dishwasher.

The gleaming white-on-white bathroom here adds charm with pinwheel tile and a grand pedestal sink. Head downstairs to find a perfectly serene bedroom paved in deep-stained, wide-plank flooring and featuring plentiful built-ins framing glimpses of stone. The bathroom on this level is a lesson in restrained modern beauty with chic tile and a contemporary vanity sink. Abundant storage is found in extra-wide closets on both levels, the in-unit washer-dryer is the ultimate city convenience and through-the-wall air conditioning on the lower level provides year-round comfort. The Norwood is a lovely turn-of-the-century brick townhouse converted to a boutique condominium building featuring eight modern units.

Residents enjoy basement storage and a lovely shared roof deck with spectacular city views. Cats and dogs are okay. Nearby attractions include Fort Greene Park, BAM, Atlantic Barclay’s Center, Rose Cinemas, DKLB BKLN, Farmers Market, Apple store, Whole Foods, Pratt Sculpture Garden, the BRIC Arts Media House and an exciting array of restaurants, flourishing small businesses, cafes, shops, beer gardens, and the best of nightlife that Brooklyn has to offer. Transportation includes easy access to the C Train at Lafayette Avenue and Atlantic Avenue/ Barclays Center Terminal ( 2, 3, 4, 5, B, Q, N, R, D) and the Long Island Railroad.
