Property Description for 155 Lafayette Ave, 5-C

In the heart of Fort Greene, this rarely available, spacious and bright two-bedroom coop is the perfect mix of period charm and modern style. With ceilings reaching over 9', gorgeous original woodwork, and southern views for miles, this sunny sanctuary is a perfect place to call home.
As you enter, the large foyer doubles as a home office complete with a built-in desk and cabinetry offering lots of storage, as well as a discreetly tucked coat closet.
The entry hall leads to the large, sun strewn living space. South-facing oversized bay windows framed by original woodwork offer lovely views of the mature trees outside and beyond. An exposed brick wall creates warmth and character. The open living plan provides plenty of space for dining, adjacent the kitchen.
The modern, open kitchen offers abundant storage, ample workspace and features stainless steel appliances, Caesarstone counters, a glass tile backsplash, and a wine fridge. A large skylight above brings in wonderful light, even on the cloudiest of days.
Nicely separated from the living space, the two bedrooms are both well-proportioned, each with a large closet. The primary bedroom has three lovely arched windows with beautiful treetop views.
The bathroom, perfectly situated between the bedrooms, has been classically renovated with black and white tile, a large marble-topped vanity, and clever storage niches.
Throughout the apartment you'll find refinished hardwood floors and high ceilings.
155 Lafayette is a small, pet friendly co-op with laundry, bike storage and additional storage (for rent) in the basement. Located in prime Fort Greene, two blocks from Fort Greene Park, minutes to multiple subway lines and surrounded by great food, shopping and nightlife, the location is unbeatable.

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.
