149 Clinton Ave

A low-rise, four-story prewar co-op dating from 1900, this intimate building contains mostly two-bedroom residences across roughly 16–32 units depending on apartment mix. The exterior presents classic Clinton Hill brownstone-era character with tree-lined-street frontage and a modest footprint that opens onto a shared garden and paved courtyard. Interiors typically feature high ceilings (9'+), oversized windows with multiple exposures, hardwood floors, and prewar details such as exposed brick in common corridors and wrought-iron stairwells. Individual apartments range from fully gut-renovated homes with modern kitchens, high-end appliances, marble or quartz counters, and in-unit washer/dryers to units that retain original layout flexibility and require updating. Storage is handled through generous closets, deeded storage cages, a communal bike room, and a basement laundry facility. The building is owner-occupied with stable finances and cooperative governance; pet policy allows cats but generally prohibits dogs. Shared amenities center on the landscaped common courtyard/garden with barbecue grills, outdoor seating, stroller parking, and seasonal plantings rather than large-scale services. Transit access is strong for Brooklyn: nearby G and C lines with connections to multiple express and local services, plus close proximity to Fort Greene Park, BAM, Myrtle Avenue retail and dining, and the Brooklyn Navy Yard, supporting a neighborhood lifestyle focused on walkability, local culture, and community-oriented living.
