Property Description for 164 South Portland Ave
Fall in love with South Portland Avenue. Situated on a tree-lined block with a mixture of mansions, townhouses and a Grand Church on the corner; is this charming house in Fort Greene that time forgot. A full length antique mirror brings extra light into the Parlor from the Bay Window. This three story building holds the allure of the 19th century along with the modern conveniences of the 21st. Remember sliding down the banister when it was forbidden, but so much fun? The center staircase looks like it hasn't been touched since 1900.
Original mantels adorn living, dining and bed rooms. Tin ceilings and original wainscoting give you the feeling of history. On the garden floor is a large eat-in kitchen with stainless steel appliances. The low-maintenance backyard with large brick patio, still has a garden area in the rear.
Keep the kitchens and bathrooms as is, or bring your renovation dreams with you. There is plenty of FAR if you need more indoor space, or keep the outdoor area large enough to host a garden party for 40 of your closest friends. Full basement includes a washer/dryer.
Can be used as 1 or 2 units.
Delivered vacant.

Fort Greene | Brooklyn
Quick Profile
Conveniently situated just north of the beautiful and lush Prospect Park, Fort Greene is rich with history. Representative of an aesthetic that Brooklyn is often associated with--the brownstone and row house architecture being an institution of the community--Fort Greene is decidedly singular in visual style. As part of the National Register of Historic Places, this South Brooklyn neighborhood offers unique charm and plenty of character.
Beginning with its early military-oriented inception (the territory was central to the Battle of Long Island), Fort Greene has always been recognized for its spaciousness and a sense of openness. Filled with nature and greenery, it is also home to its very own eponymously named park in addition to being in close proximity to Brooklyn’s largest recreational area, Prospect Park (containing the beloved Prospect Park Zoo within it).
Many residents come from different socioeconomic backgrounds and commute to their workplaces in Manhattan, while keeping Fort Greene as their separate haven. The diversity of the area has proven to be one of the few examples of a Brooklyn neighborhood maintaining its roots in part thanks to its protected status.
