An 1894 Queen Anne Townhouse with Private Elevator in the Greenpoint Historic District

Offered at $3,995,000 | 3 Bedrooms | 3 Full Bathrooms | 4 Stories + Garden

Architectural Provenance Meets Modern Engineering

Set along landmarked Milton Street between Manhattan Avenue and Franklin Street, 143 Milton Street represents a rare synthesis of late-19th-century craft and contemporary mechanical refinement. Constructed in 1894 with a distinctive Roman brick and cut-stone facade, an exterior second-floor oriel, and a private third-floor loggia, this turn-key residence has undergone a complete multi-year architectural gut renovation.

The defining upgrade is a newly engineered private residential elevator servicing all four finished levels—an exceptional amenity rarely achieved in historic Brooklyn row houses.
