The heart of Fort Greene is the perfect neighborhood to spend this year in NYC, and this full-floor 1BR bursting with character and historic appeal is the perfect spot.
The bedroom fits a king bed easily and features custom shelving, a marble fireplace and a walk-in closet. It opens into a cozy open kitchen with new stainless steel dishwasher and stove and a spacious pantry.
The living room leads you into a small, windowed nook perfect for a home office and looking out into perhaps the biggest selling point of all - an 800 sq. ft. patio and garden oasis the previous tenant poured her heart into. Heat lamps extend its season through the winter.
Bathroom is clean and nice with a clawfoot tub. Every inch of this apartment has light and a view of greenery. Custom wide plank floors were recently redone. Decorated tin ceilings, custom woodwork and exposed brick fill the space with charm.
Laundry is available in the shared, furnished basement, as is storage for bikes. We're installing a virtual doorman system for packages. We have window A/C units available for your use. Pets are great with approval.

Slavery was outlawed in New York in 1827, which allowed the black population of Fort Greene to grow as many people moved to the area seeking work in the Navy Yard. The farmers of the area sold their land to this population and they developed the area as a haven for the abolitionist movement, hosting speakers like Harriet Tubman and Frederick Douglass.
During the 1900's, Fort Greene experienced a cultural boom, opening BAM in 1908…
