Property Description for 96 Rockwell Place, 5-B

Perched above the crossroads of Fort Greene, Boerum Hill, and Downtown Brooklyn, measuring over 720 square feet, with 11' ceilings throughout, this light-filled, spacious one-bedroom condo offers wonderful views and terrific space conveniently located in the middle of everything.

The wide foyer welcomes you into the home and ushers you into the loft-like living space. Bathed in natural light through a wall of oversized, west-facing windows, the flexible layout offers plenty of room to create both a well-proportioned living area and a separate dining space. The open kitchen features custom Wenge cabinetry, Caesarstone countertops, Bosch and Fisher & Paykel stainless steel appliances, and fantastic storage and work space. Two huge closets flank the hallway, one housing the washer/dryer.

Down the hall, separate from the main living space, is the bedroom. Large enough for a queen-size bed, the bedroom offers a third, spacious closet. The bathroom has modern finishes and fixtures including a deep tub and a custom vanity. The apartment has wide-plank oak flooring throughout and comes with a PRIVATE STORAGE CAGE in the basement.

Converted from a piano factory, 96 Rockwell Place is a boutique condominium with only three or four residences per floor. Other amenities include a full-time super, a fitness center, and bike storage. Around the corner from nine subway lines and the LIRR, in the heart of the BAM Cultural District, a few blocks from Fort Greene Park, and surrounded by great shopping (including Whole Foods 365 across the street), dining and entertainment, the location is second to none. Pet friendly with a tax abatement until 2028. (Please note, while used as a one-bedroom, the legal definition of this apartment is a studio apartment with a home office.)

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.
