Description
Featured in Apartment Therapy for its tasteful finishes and functional modern bohemian design, this charming one-bedroom is a one-of-a-kind gem offering beautiful, versatile living space. Just 3 short flights up in a boutique Fort Greene cond-op awaits a welcoming Brooklyn abode that blends the vintage character of rounded archways, crown molding and bordered wooden floors with contemporary clean lines and chic minimalist yet elegant appointments. High ceilings set the tone of airiness, while oversized windows in every room (including the kitchen) and sunny southern exposure invite flooding light throughout the home. The large living/dining room with tall triple windows is a comfortable spot for relaxing and entertaining. Youll love spending just as much time in the separate eat-in kitchen styled with generous wood cabinetry and stainless steel appliances including a dishwasher. A long hallway thats perfect for artwork also guides you down to the quiet king-size bedroom with plenty of room for a home office area, and to a tranquil full bath with a skylight. Three large closets amply accommodate your storage needs. An in-home washer/dryer allows convenient laundry on demand.
96 South Portland Avenue is an intimate building with just 8 apartments and a lovely front courtyard to greet you. As appealing is the convenient address near abundant restaurants, shops and transportation options, in the heart of Fort Greene between Fulton Street and Lafayette Avenue. Enjoy a quick commute to Manhattan on the C, A and G train right at the corner. Atlantic Terminal and Brooklyn Academy of Music are also minutes away...
