394 Vanderbilt Avenue was created from two historic Italianate brownstones built in 1877. The building offers high-end units in Fort Greene with modern amenities and convenient access to local attractions and transportation.
394 Vanderbilt Avenue represents a thoughtful conversion of two historic Italianate brownstones built in 1877 by Thomas B. Jackson, part of an original row of 16 brownstones that defines this tree lined stretch of Fort Greene's Historic District. Developed by Brooklyn Home Company, this new construction project preserves the building's 19th century façade while creating modern residences with high end finishes throughout. The building maintains its historic character as part of Brooklyn's quintessential brownstone landscape, situated on a 100 foot lot in one of the borough's most architecturally significant neighborhoods.
The residences feature a mix of full floor units and duplex layouts, ranging from 1,632 to 1,994 square feet. Full floor apartments include private roof decks up to 443 square feet with leafy views and gas fireplaces, while duplex units offer private yards with paved patios and turf lawns ideal for outdoor entertaining. Several units showcase luxurious details including clawfoot soaking tubs, chic barn doors, and walk in rain showers surrounded by Carrara marble. The flexible lower levels in duplex units provide additional space that can serve as home offices, gyms, or media rooms.
All apartments share consistent high quality finishes including engineered 5 inch oak floors, soaring ceilings, and tall white art walls throughout. The open kitchens feature a striking black and white design with subway tile backsplashes, black granite countertops, and premium appliances by Bertazzoni and Bosch. Master suites include custom walk in closets and spa like en suite bathrooms with double vanities and massive walk in rain showers trimmed in Carrara marble. Modern conveniences include in-unit washer/dryers, split A/C units, forced air heating, and video intercom entry.
The building's location in Fort Greene places residents steps from Fort Greene Park, Barclays Center, and the Brooklyn Academy of Music, with exceptional transportation access including C and G trains nearby and the full array of subway lines plus LIRR at Atlantic Terminal. Historical listings reveal the building's rich past, with original details including seven fireplaces, tin ceilings, pocket doors, and original window and door moldings that speak to Thomas B. Jackson's craftsmanship. This prime Fort Greene address offers residents access to the neighborhood's renowned dining scene, cultural attractions, and the perfect blend of historic charm with contemporary Brooklyn living.
