Property Description for 101 Lafayette Ave, 2-L

Private Outdoor Terrace! Unit 2L is a beautifully renovated studio apartment at The Griffin, one of the few doorman buildings located in prime Fort Greene. The owner recently undertook a full cosmetic renovation of the kitchen, bathroom and flooring, and the beautiful casement windows open onto a 12'x'14' terrace that is all yours (and which gets amazing afternoon light and sunsets). The kitchen has an upgraded stainless steel gas range/stove and refrigerator, Caesarstone counters and backsplash, and brand new custom cabinets for that super-clean white on white aesthetic. The bathroom was also refinished with a new tiling, toilet, and fixtures, and looks beautifully update while retaining some pre-warm charm (we love the pedestal sink!). And the living space is roomy enough for 4 distinct living needs - sleeping, working, relaxing and eating. There's also a walk-in closet to round it all out. Simply put, this is a perfect studio apartment in an incredible location, and won't last in this fast-moving market! The Griffin is located just one block from Fort Greene park and endless restaurants and bars, and is just steps from the C and G trains and a 5 minute walk to the B/D/N/R/Q/2/3/4/5 and LIRR trains. The building has a part-time doorman, 24 hour laundry room, storage in the building, and a live in super. Pets are welcome! The building was converted to a coop in 1987, it was formerly a hotel that was built in 1931 and retains the grand art deco designs.

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.
