This duplex in the Fort Greene Historic District can fit roommates or a family and has beautiful marble mantels, plaster details and wood floors. It seems to get a fair amount of light, too, if the photos are anything to go by.

A walkup, it’s on the top two floors of 49 South Elliott Place, a four-story brick Italianate built in the 1860s, about half a block from Fort Green Park. The living room has a decorative carved marble mantel, three windows spanning the front of the building, and a niche set off by a plaster arch.

The niche is shown set up as a dining room in the virtually staged photos in the listing, from Shelley Wasserman and Michael Murphy of Compass. The adjacent kitchen also has a carved marble mantel and space for a dining table. It comes with a dishwasher, mosaic tile backsplash and stone counter. Steps lead out to a terrace with a built-in bench, shown virtually staged.
