About this House

SUNDAY 9/13 1-2 PM OPEN HOUSE BY APPOINTMENT ONLY This beautiful two-family Italianate townhouse sits on a tree-lined brownstone block just two streets off of Fort Greene Park. Built circa 1866, the house measures 20ft x 45ft and sits on 100ft lot. At 3,600 SQFT over four stories, 216 Adelphi is a romantic expression of classic Italiante architecture that has come to define the brownstone lifestyle. This wide brownstone is configured as an upper triplex with a garden rental and is resplendent with original interior detail, and offers unusually spacious rooms and grand proportions throughout. Several of the marble mantels remain along with plaster crown moldings and medallions , a spectacular pier mirror on the parlor floor, glass pocket doors, full-length windows, and original wood floors. The staircase retains its original newel post and curves gracefully to the bedroom floors of the triplex. The spacious 1BR, 1BA garden apartment enjoys a separate below-stoop entrance and has the potential for a high income rental. 216 Adelphi is delivered vacant with both Landmarks Commission and Department of Buildings approved renovation plans, making it shovel- ready for your modern touches. The FYI here is that the plans save you approximately a year of time in project terms. Also, 216 Adelphi has approximately 400 square feet of additional FAR should you choose to amend the plans and add onto the existing property. In the heart of the Fort Greene Historic District, 216 Adelphi Street is proximate to the neighborhood's sundry amenities: playgrounds, Fort Greene Park with its year round framer's market, acclaimed restaurants along DeKalb Avenue, BAM, and quick transport to Manhattan.
216 Adelphi St, Brooklyn, NY 11205 is a 6 bedroom, 5 bathroom, 3,600 sqft multi-family in Fort Greene, built in 1931. It last sold for $5,600,000 on Oct 29, 2025. This property is not currently displayed as for sale or rent on Trulia. The Trulia Estimate is $5,561,100.

    "Amazing neighborhood, mostly townhouses on quiet tree lined blocks. A lot of apartments have backyards. There is all kings of public transportation, but parking a car might be a little hard, but it’s very close to the city. It’s my favorite neighborhood of n Brooklyn!!!"

    "I’ve lived in the neighborhood for five years, it feels so central via all modes of transportation. So many train lines are walking distance. Buses stop on the corner. The ferry will take you to Wall Street, LIC or the East side of 34th street. Bike lanes & CitiBike are available if you don’t want to walk or wait for the bus. The building also has a bike room to store your bike. Prospect Park is directly up Vanderbilt Ave. Wegman’s is walking distance as well. There’s a farmer market at Fort Greene Park every Saturday. There are a lot of local restaurants to dine in or get take out at. Parking is doable in a 3 block radius especially since alternative side is less restrictive. The Manhattan and Brooklyn Bridge are very close for easy access to the city. The courtyard is it’s own oasis. Neighbors are friendly and often the building holds events to foster community. I’ve been fortunate to be one of the originals here at Navy Green."
