306 Clermont Avenue

Details: Recently selected as Brownstoner’s “House of the Day,” this legal three-unit home is adorned with original molding, intricate detail, and boasts a working fireplace.

The home’s current owner has filed with the The New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission for façade and window replacements.
Open House: Sunday, May 31, 1-2:30pm
230 Ashland Place #23C
List Price: $1,295,000
Size: Two bedrooms, two bathrooms
Details: Sleek, spacious, open, modern, this two-bedroom in the Forte condominium — located in the heart of the BAM Cultural District — offers a sweeping vista of Brooklyn and beyond. There is storage space up the wazoo in this 1,200 square foot apartment, with custom upgrades and built-ins. A master bedroom features an en-suite master bath with marble vanity and wall tiles, and the living area will blow you away with a view few are privy to. The kitchen has a marble island, stainless steel GE appliances, granite countertops, glass-tile backsplash, and solid wood cabinetry. Basically, nothing not to love about this place.
Open House: Sunday, May 31, 2-3:30pm
143 Lafayette Avenue #A
List Price: $799,000, $963 maintenance / common charges
Size: Two bedrooms, one bathroom
Details: The address “143” — chatspeak for “I love you” — is a great omen for this 1931 prewar landmark cooperative when “true craftsmen created buildings that reminded them of Grand European Townhouses.” Amen to that. The brick façade, enormous casement windows, landscaped front lawn and hidden common courtyard are what make this building attractive on the outside. Inside, enjoy a modern open kitchen, nice-sized living space, and decorative fireplace and bookshelves, as well as a fully-renovated bathroom. Hardwood floors cover the entire unit, which is in close proximity to great shopping, restaurants, cultural events, and the Atlantic Terminal, BAM, and more.
Open House: Sunday, May 31, 1-3pm
