Description

Penthouse B at 171 South Portland Avenue - A Rare Fort Greene Offering

Perched atop an intimate nine-unit condominium, Penthouse B is a striking four-bedroom, three-bathroom duplex that spans approximately 1,735 square feet of thoughtfully designed interiors, complemented by two private outdoor spaces: a sunny balcony and an expansive private roof terrace with sweeping skyline views.

The home opens to soaring 18-foot ceilings and oversized double-hung windows that flood the space with natural light. Wide-plank oak floors and a serene neutral palette establish a warm, inviting atmosphere that flows seamlessly across both levels.

At the heart of the residence, the expansive living and dining area connects effortlessly with a chef's kitchen appointed with honed Montclair Danby marble countertops, custom European cabinetry, and a premium appliance suite that includes a Liebherr refrigerator, Bosch dishwasher, and Bertazzoni gas range. Elegant pendant lighting and polished nickel fixtures underscore the timeless design.

The primary suite serves as a spa-like retreat, featuring herringbone marble floors, Bianco Bello stone walls, and Waterworks fittings. Three additional bedrooms offer versatility for guests, a home office, or a growing household.

Outdoor living is a defining feature of this home. In addition to a private balcony, the crown jewel is a generous roof terrace designed for both relaxation and entertaining. Outfitted with planters, the terrace offers ample room for al fresco dining, lounging with friends, enjoying morning coffee, or cultivating a garden oasis-all with panoramic views as your backdrop.

Designed by Barry Rice Architects, 171 South Portland Avenue combines 1920s Parisian-inspired architecture with contemporary elegance. Ideally located on a coveted Fort Greene block, the building is moments from Fort Greene Park, BAM, Barclays Center, and the neighborhood's celebrated dining, cafes, and boutiques. Multiple subway lines and the LIRR are nearby, ensuring easy access across the city.

Additional conveniences include a dedicated basement storage unit, completing this rare opportunity to own a signature penthouse residence in one of Brooklyn's most vibrant and desirable neighborhoods.
