269 Clinton Avenue is a magnificent limestone mansion built in the 1870s, located in Brooklyn's Clinton Hill historic district on what's known as "Mansion Row." The former single-family home was converted into an 11-unit co-op, preserving much of its 19th-century grandeur and architectural details.
The building showcases exceptional pre-war craftsmanship, featuring ornate woodwork, unique cast-iron detailing, and sweeping wood-paneled staircases. The entrance foyer is adorned with Minton tiles and mahogany details, while individual units retain period elements such as marble mantles, pocket shutters, high ceilings (reaching up to 12 feet), and hand-nailed oak floors.
Residents share several common amenities including a sprawling front-gated garden with Victorian-era street lamps, a communal back garden with BBQ and patio space, laundry facilities, and dedicated storage areas. The pet-friendly building is self-managed and maintains its historic character while providing modern conveniences.
Situated on the same block as the historic Pratt family mansions, the building enjoys a prime location minutes from Fort Greene Park and its farmers' market. The area offers easy access to public transportation, with the G train at Clinton-Washington station nearby, and is surrounded by numerous restaurants, shops, and cultural attractions along DeKalb Avenue.

For some co-ops, instead of price per square foot, we use an estimate of the number of rooms for each sold apartment to chart price changes over time. This is because many co-op listings do not include square footage information, and this makes it challenging to calculate accurate square-foot averages.
By displaying the price per estimated room count, we are able to provide a more reliable and consistent metric for comparing sales in the building. While we hope that this gives you a clearer sense of price trends in the building, all data should be independently verified. All data provided are only estimates and should not be used to make any purchase or sale decision.
