Property Description for 4 South Portland Ave, 5

In a five-unit, renovated, 24 foot wide brownstone CONDO, on gorgeous South Portland Avenue (voted the most beautiful block in Brooklyn), and directly across from Fort Greene Park, this lovely two-bedroom apartment features a PRIVATE ROOF DECK with amazing views of the surrounding area, including the blanket of treetops within the park. With 10' ceilings and grand proportions, the open living area has two over-sized windows bringing in beautiful light all day long. The renovated kitchen has tons of work and storage space, granite countertops, and stainless steel Leibherr and GE Profile appliances. There is plenty of room for a separate dining area within the large living space. Down the hall you'll find the spacious marble bath, complete with an extra deep whirlpool tub and a classic pedestal sink. A second bath could be added adjacent to the main bath to create an en-suite master bath. Both bedrooms are sizable and offer large closets. The apartment has a stackable washer/dryer and beautiful hardwood floors and crown molding throughout. Best of all, if being across from the park wasn't enough, the apartment comes with its own private roof deck, accessed through a stairway within the apartment. Storage and bike storage can be found in the basement, and a wonderful hall closet belongs to this apartment alone. The location is simply fabulous--next to a community garden, with the weekend farmer's market, tennis courts, playgrounds, and open space all at Fort Greene Park, between all the restaurants and shops of DeKalb and Lafayette and Fulton, and a few blocks to the BAM cultural district and multiple subway lines (C,G, B M, Q R, 2, 3, 4, 5) and LIRR. Pets allowed with board approval.

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.
