This large two-bedroom duplex co-op sits in a landmarked 1860s Fort Greene townhouse, one of a row that was converted to the Lafayette Court Apartments in 1934. There are 21 units in total; this one is at 147 Lafayette Avenue, the smallest of the buildings, and occupies the top two floors.

It’s spacious and has a flexible layout. The lower level has a living room, two bedrooms, a full bath and the kitchen; above is a large, skylit space that could serve as a second living space or put to some other use; it could be a huge master bedroom for instance.

The living room (the lower one, that is) has several floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the front courtyard.

The kitchen and bathrooms are renovated, and nicely; the upper bathroom holds a washer and dryer.

There’s a cedar-planked deck in the rear; a communal garden offers a second outdoor space.

There’s a storage room in the basement, and the C and G trains are nearby. Monthly charges total a not-inconsiderable $1,329.

Listed by Marie Bromberg of Corcoran, the unit is asking $1.295 million. What do you think of it?
