Property Description for 264 Clermont Ave, 1

For the historic detail aficionado this owners duplex on Clermont Avenue is a treasure trove of original detail from the late 19th century. 1600 square feet 2 BR, one bth and a private garden ever so close to Fort Greene park, restaurants, cafés and shops make this a rare opportunity. 12 foot +high parlor ceilings with the most ornate original plasterwork in a three family coop with NO underlying mortgage left on the building make this quite compelling. Original beamed ceilings on the lower level, etched glass doors, ornate marble mantles, the eye just keeps traveling from one charming detail to the next. The renovation is a bit dated, the quality of the property both architecturally and mechanically are great. East/West exposures allow for perfect sunrise and sunsets from one day to the next in one of Brooklyn's most fabulous neighborhoods. Located in the heart of the Fort Greene landmark district.

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.
