Property Description for 96 South Portland Ave, 3

It's hard not to fall in love with this one-bedroom stunner nestled in one of the loveliest blocks in Fort Greene! From the arched doorway to perfectly preserved wood floors, it's a rare mix of prewar charm and modern convenience. Through the gates of the landscaped courtyard with a blooming Cherry Blossom, walk up one flight of stairs, and you'll find a bright and open living room anchored by two massive windows. Thoughtfully renovated, the kitchen has been upgraded with ample cabinet and pantry storage, dishwasher, electric stove/oven, and stainless steel appliances. Additional features include a full height closet with stacked washer/dryer, as well as a newly installed split system AC unit. There is also a hallway closet deep enough for bicycle storage. The bedroom adjoins a large windowed en-suite bath and can easily fit a queen-size bed. 96 South Portland Avenue is a unique, well-maintained 8-unit coop that stands apart for its flexible sublet policy. Pied a Terres are allowed. The courtyard has recently been upgraded with new drainage, and each unit comes with a storage bin. Located just across the street from Greenlight Books, around the corner from BAM, Barclay’s, Fort Greene Park, local favorites like Ella, Head Sounds Records, Dinner Party, Miss Ada, Olea, Fradei, and much, much more. Transit couldn’t be more convenient with the C at your doorstep, G at Fulton, and all the trains at Atlantic Terminal nearby.

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.
