Just one flight up, the home was originally configured as a 3 BD 2 BA and is currently used as a 2 BD plus a generously sized office / den space. The home's layout is anchored by an expansive open living, dining, and kitchen area that spans the full width of the property – ~29 ft wide. Reimagined as part of a comprehensive renovation, the kitchen features abundant custom cabinetry, extensive counter space, a Viking range, pot filler, and stainless steel appliances. Oversized triple-paned windows throughout provide beautiful natural light from dual Southern and Northern exposures while enhancing quiet and framing leafy treetop views along one of Brownstone Brooklyn's most desirable blocks. The entry foyer offers space for a mudroom and includes a dedicated laundry closet with a full-size LG washer and vented dryer. Privately positioned at the rear of the home are the secondary bedroom, a full bath, and the spacious primary suite. The primary bedroom is extraordinarily spacious and enjoys direct access to a private balcony with open sky views and overlooking neighboring gardens. Both bathrooms are finished in classic marble with Toto fixtures and Grohe fittings. Additional upgrades include split-system air conditioning throughout, new radiators, cedar-lined closets, and updated mechanical systems, including a new hot water heater installed last year, among others. The condo also comes with an oversized private storage room conveniently located just outside the apartment's entry door. Rounding out the offering is a dedicated private parking space located at the rear of the building. Built in 2005, 21 Douglass Street is a thoughtfully maintained, walk-up condominium comprised of just five residences. Pet friendly, too!

Prices are the figures recorded with the City, not asking prices. | Unit | Beds | Sq Ft | Sold Price | $/ft² | Sold | Source | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 3 (Apartment) | 2 | 1,500 | $1,999,000 | $1,333/ft² | November 24, 2025 | City record · MLS | | 4-R (Apartment) | 1 | 730 | $830,000 | $1,137/ft² | August 24, 2022 | City record · MLS | Every row is a recorded transaction, including ancillary spaces such as storage and staff rooms where they were sold separately. Those are excluded from the benchmark below. ### How this price compares - **This home**: $2,500,000 - **Median sold price**: $3,075,000 - **Difference**: -$575,000 (-18.7%) - **This home, $/ft²**: $1,648 - **Median $/ft²**: $1,943 - **Comparable sales**: 8 - **Sales from**: September 2024 – July 2026 - **Middle half of those sales**: $2,523,125 – $3,773,750 Based on condo three-bedroom sales in Cobble Hill. This building has not had enough comparable sales of its own in the period to support a median, so the benchmark is drawn from Cobble Hill instead. ### How these sales were negotiated - **Sale-to-list price**: 93.9% (7 sales) - **Sold below asking**: 86% (7 sales) - **Typical time to find a buyer**: 112 days (8 sales) - **Typical time to close**: 60 days (8 sales) Based on condo three-bedroom sales in Cobble Hill with the required listing and closing data. Sample sizes vary by metric. These are two separate periods measured on different clocks — time to find a buyer, and time from agreed deal to closing. They are medians of different sets of sales and do not add together into a single "days on market" figure. Sales data through July 2026. Sale prices are the consideration recorded with the City in ACRIS, and each sale is dated by the day the City recorded it. A closing date reported to the MLS typically falls one to two weeks earlier. Recorded sales describe what has already happened and are not an appraisal, a valuation, or an estimate of what this home will sell for.

We calculated the tax for those years using the prior year’s rate, so treat them as an estimate rather than a figure the City has adopted. Every rate without the Estimated marker is the published one. Tax Assessment is the assessed value on the City’s roll, and it is the figure other listing sites publish. It is not what the bill is calculated on. New York phases assessment changes in gradually for some tax classes, so the City bills the Billable Value shown beside it, less any exemption the owner holds. It usually trails the assessment, and it can sit above it for a few years after an assessment falls. Figures are the New York City Department of Finance assessment roll for tax lot 3004081002. Assessed and billable values are determined by the City for tax purposes and are not an appraisal or an estimate of market value. Tax classes and rates are set annually and can change.
