Three Condos in an 1855 Brooklyn Heights Townhouse at 138 Joralemon Street
Three Condos in an 1855 Brooklyn Heights Townhouse at 138 Joralemon Street
Welcome to 138 Joralemon Street, a boutique three-residence condominium inside an 1855 townhouse in the heart of Brooklyn Heights, one of the most historic and sought-after addresses in the borough.
Where Things Stand
Here is where things stand: 138 Joralemon Street's offering plan was submitted to the New York State Attorney General on November 21, 2025, and it is currently awaiting acceptance. That means no units are for sale yet, there is no public pricing, and reservations cannot be taken. From here, it typically takes about 6 to 12 months for the Attorney General to review and accept a plan. If this one is on your radar, now is the time to start the conversation, well before it is marketed anywhere publicly.
The Numbers So Far
The plan calls for three residences, with an estimated sellout price of $11,250,000. With an average sales price of $3,750,000, these are going to be some very high-end apartments. Condos in Brooklyn Heights are very rare, though, and good luck finding a full brownstone around that price point.

A Boutique Condo Experience
138 Joralemon Street is a conversion of a 1855 townhouse, which makes it one of the oldest buildings in this group of new condos. The renovation, by Opera Studio Architecture, restores the historic character while bringing the systems and layouts fully up to date. The plan includes private outdoor space, storage, a walk-up layout, and an intercom.
The Heart of Brooklyn Heights
Brooklyn Heights was New York City's first designated historic district, and it remains one of the most beautiful and best-preserved neighborhoods in the city. Tree-lined streets of brownstones and Greek Revival townhouses, the Promenade with its harbor views, Brooklyn Bridge Park down the hill, and the shops and restaurants along Montague and Court Streets all make it a perennial favorite with buyers. 138 Joralemon Street sits right in the middle of it, moments from Borough Hall.
The N and R at Court Street are about a 3-minute walk.
The 4 and 5 at Borough Hall are about 4 minutes.
The 2 and 3 at Borough Hall are about 4 minutes.
The A, C, and F at Jay Street-MetroTech are about 7 minutes.
Walkable to Brooklyn Bridge Park, the Promenade, and the Montague and Court Street corridors.
Designed for Modern Brooklyn Living
A three-unit conversion of an 1855 townhouse in Brooklyn Heights, with private outdoor space and an unbeatable transit location, is a rare offering in a neighborhood where new condos almost never appear. For a buyer who wants a brand-new home wrapped in genuine history, 138 Joralemon Street is worth knowing about early.
