Welcome to 277 Washington Avenue, Apt. 4E - an expansive, sun-filled, and lovingly maintained pre-war one-bedroom coop nestled on one of Clinton Hill's most grand and picturesque tree-lined blocks. Set within Francine Towers, a stately six-story Romanesque-style elevator building dating back to 1905, this generously proportioned apartment offers a rare blend of old-world charm and everyday comfort - the kind of place that feels like home the moment you walk in. Step off the elevator and into your open foyer, where you can set down your bags, tuck your coat into the floor-to-ceiling closet, and savor the quiet respite at home after a long day in the city. Currently used as a cozy work-from-home office nook, this entry space is as versatile as it is welcoming. From here, the apartment unfolds in three directions - through a charming glass-paned French door into the living/dining room, straight ahead into the separate eat-in kitchen, and down a quiet hallway toward the bedroom wing - creating a perfect separation between your everyday living spaces. The expansive living/dining room is the heart of the home, bathed in south-eastern sunlight that streams in through two large windows from mid- morning until late afternoon. High ceilings, original picture rails and moldings, and gorgeous basket-weave patterned oak floors give the room timeless character, while the generous layout comfortably fits a dining table large enough for a dinner party of eight, a roomy couch, a media console, and an accent chair or two. At the opposite end of the home, the king-sized bedroom offers the same warm all-day sunlight through two more windows, with peaceful views over the Pratt campus and neighboring treetops and backyards. This room is expansive, with room enough for a king bedroom set, two dressers, and a quiet corner for your favorite reading chair, perfect for leisurely mornings or unwinding at the end of the day. The eat-in windowed kitchen is both roomy and functional, with a separate breakfast area, granite countertops, and both upper and lower wood cabinetry. Stainless steel appliances, including a dishwasher and a brand-new refrigerator, make cooking a pleasure. And when it's time to relax, the windowed bathroom's original deep cast-iron soaking tub is ready to help you unwind and reset. Beyond your front door, Francine Towers places you right in the heart of Clinton Hill - just one block from Pratt Institute and surrounded by beloved neighborhood restaurants, shops, and cultural gems, with Fort Greene Park and Underwood Park both just minutes away. Commuting is effortless too, with the G train one block away and the A and C lines within a few short blocks. The building offers bicycle storage (for a small fee) and has a large common laundry room, and your pets are welcome! Subletting is permitted after two years of ownership with board approval, and the co-op is open to pied-à-terre purchasers, co-purchasing, and parents purchasing on behalf of adult children, all on a case-by-case basis. This isn't just an apartment - it's a warm, sun-filled retreat in one of Brooklyn's most vibrant and beloved neighborhoods, and a wonderful place to call home. Showings are Open House by Appointment Only. Please call or email the listing agent to schedule your visit. ## Property Details - **Property Type**: Co-op - **Beds**: 1 - **Baths**: 1 - **Rooms**: 4 - **Stories**: 6 - **Year Built**: 1929 - **Common Charges**: $1,385 / Monthly - **Listed On**: Sep 16, 2026 - **Days on Market**: 1 Days ### Residence Features - Window Unit(s) - Building Other - Dining Area - Dishwasher ## Estimated Monthly Payment **$5,253 / month**, assuming a 20% down payment ($153,000), a 6.5% interest rate and a 30-year term.

Those are excluded from the benchmark below. ### How this price compares - **This home**: $765,000 - **Median sold price**: $712,000 - **Difference**: +$53,000 (+7.4%) - **Comparable sales**: 12 - **Sales from**: September 2021 – November 2025 - **Middle half of those sales**: $625,000 – $740,000 Based on one-bedroom sales at FRANCINE TOWERS. Square footage is recorded for only 6 of these 12 sales (50%), so no price per square foot is shown for this group. Co-op sales rarely carry a floor area, and a figure drawn from a handful of them would not describe the rest. ### How these sales were negotiated - **Sale-to-list price**: 98% (11 sales) - **Sold below asking**: 64% (11 sales) - **Typical time to find a buyer**: 63 days (9 sales) - **Typical time to close**: 82 days (9 sales) Based on one-bedroom sales at FRANCINE TOWERS 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. ### Price trend Median sale price, co-op one-bedroom sales in Clinton Hill | Year | Median sold price | Sales | | --- | --- | --- | | 2017 | $611,500 | 29 | | 2018 | $640,000 | 23 | | 2019 | $637,500 | 24 | | 2020 | $640,000 | 27 | | 2021 | $630,000 | 36 | | 2022 | $600,000 | 34 | | 2023 | $680,000 | 22 | | 2024 | $655,000 | 18 | | 2025 | $742,500 | 28 | | 2026 YTD | $652,500 | 10 | Based on recorded co-op one-bedroom sales in Clinton Hill. 2026 is year-to-date. Sales data through February 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.
