Property Description for 264 Cumberland Street, 11

Photos coming soon. Just listed in mint condition! Centrally located, and well apportioned 2 bedroom, 2 bath (convertible 3) apartment in a landmark pre-war condominium conversion just seconds away from iconic and historical Fort Greene Park. Consisting of a 1399 square foot floor-through layout, this apartment offers a quiet and private townhouse experience set on a timeless and classic tree lined Fort Greene block, with the potential for a third bedroom to suit your life’s possibilities (please see alternate floor plan in listing). Features include 20' + wide living room enhanced by exposed brick and Brazilian teak hardwood floors, day long natural light from multiple exposures, modern design elements, stainless steel appliances, master en-suite bath, washer / dryer and HVAC central ac and heat. Master bedroom features private balcony offering a serene and private outdoor urban escape. A short two flights up, Residence #11 at the boutique Sanctuary condominium offers an extremely spacious open layout with both eastern and western exposures providing steady flows of natural light throughout all hours of the day. The massive living area affords generous amounts of space for the open concept Chef’s kitchen, and separate dining room and living areas with plenty of room to spare without any spatial compromise. Low monthly maintenance charges and a J51 tax abatement make this gorgeous home difficult to pass up. After its previous iteration as a neo-gothic church constructed in 1915, 264 Cumberland Street underwent a stunning conversion and was released as a condo development in 2008. The outcome was a 13 luxury unit building, presented to the public under the untouched and in-tact historical neo-gothic facade of the church’s original architecture, combining the best in pre-war details in tandem with the highlights of modern design. The location speaks for itself - close to all the amenities that make Fort Greene unique and special in today’s urban landscape - DeKalb Market, Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s Target, Crunch, City Point Mall, Alamo Drafthouse, Barclays Center and more. Transportation options seem virtually unlimited with the C train at Lafayette Avenue & G at Fulton Street. The Atlantic-Barclays stop is a 10-minute walk away with access to the B, D, N, Q, R, 2, 3, 4, 5 and LIRR. J51 tax abatement expires in 2023.

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.
