Usually we’re not crazy about removing walls in 19th century houses, but in this case either the carefully chosen furnishings or the photographs make the opened up parlor and garden floors in this two-room-deep house look very attractive. Outside, this clapboard Italianate with a bay window in Fort Greene has lots of curb appeal.

The recently renovated kitchen on the parlor floor features marble counters and stainless appliances, including a SubZero fridge and Miele cooktop. The garden floor is configured as a family room, and there are four bedrooms, three baths, and one fireplace altogether in the single-family home.

The backyard is nicely landscaped, with a spot for dining and a fence painted navy blue. Do you think they’ll get their ask of $2,999,000?
