Description

Located in a former factory building in prime Fort Greene, apt 8 at 96 South Portland Avenue is an extraordinary mix of prewar detail and luxe, modern design. Currently used as a 2 bedroom, it can easily be returned to its original 1 bedroom layout with oversized living room. Upon entering, the airy and bright living room faces a wall of windows overlooking the landscaped courtyard with a gorgeous cherry blossom tree. New wood floors and lighting are installed throughout the home. The windowed kitchen has been masterfully renovated, with an oversized sink, washer and dryer, as well as a full suite of Bosch appliances including an induction stove, refrigerator, dishwasher, and microwave. The primary bedroom is expansive, with deep closets and enough space for a King size bed plus a sun-filled work nook. A newly renovated spa-inspired bathroom with skylight creates a tranquil space to start your day. 96 South Portland Avenue is an 8 unit boutique cooperative with a flexible sublet policy. Steps to Fort Greene Park, BAM, Barclay's and local favorites Fradei, Olea, Head Sounds Records, Greenlight Books, and much, much more. Transit couldn't be more convenient with the G at Fulton, C at Lafayette Avenue. Proximity to Atlantic Terminal makes weekend jaunts to the beach a breeze, or stay home and enjoy the bustle of one of Brooklyn's best neighborhoods from atop your perch!
