Description

In the heart of Fort Greene, a half a block from Fort Greene Park, this delightful one-bedroom apartment on South Portland Avenue (once voted the best block in all of NYC by Time Out NY) features a private garden oasis out the back door. Situated on the garden-level of a beautifully maintained, 25' wide, five-story, nine-unit brownstone, this apartment offers great space with an open floor plan and large bedroom. Shoji screens in the living room mask a wall of great storage including built-in bookshelves, the wall of reclaimed wood "wallpaper" and dark-stained wood floors give the apartment a Zen-inspired feel. Free laundry and additional storage is one-flight down in the basement. **Extremely low maintenance. ** Pet friendly too! Located near everything-- multiple subway lines under Barclays Center, the park, the weekend Farmer's Market, all the shopping and restaurants on Dekalb, Fulton, Lafayette and Myrtle Avenues, BAM Theaters & The Mark Morris Dance Center, and the world famous Brooklyn Flea, and coming soon? Wegmans Market! All-in-all this location can't be beat. Welcome home!
