Have you ever fantasized about living on a film set? If so, this might be the place for you. This five-story landmarked townhouse at 52 South Oxford Street is so camera ready that if you watch enough TV, you’ve already seen it.

It was built in the 1860s, and its Italianate façade and original interior woodwork have been featured on Girls, Saturday Night Live, Elementary, and Difficult People.

Besides, it’s not every day you see a townhouse come on the market in the small, desirable neighborhood of Fort Greene, especially one loaded with historic detail.

This 5,600-square-foot brownstone has an entry and parlors with 13-foot ceilings. Its five stories can accommodate three separate families, providing additional rental income. There are seven bedrooms, five and a half bathrooms, and a cellar that can be used for storage or a wine cellar.

The home has been recently modernized, including central air-conditioning and an open chef’s kitchen featuring a large island, a Miele refrigerator, and a Wolf stove with a built-in grill. (The latter will come in especially handy for intimate, alfresco gatherings on the private garden patio.)

The townhouse is within walking distance to Fort Greene’s popular cafes, gourmet restaurants, independent boutiques, the Brooklyn Academy of Music, and Fort Greene Park, which is only a half block away.

It’s also a quick walk to all that Downtown Brooklyn has to offer.
