    Trees, Sun, and Birds Unique opportunity to own a spectacular 2 bed 1.5 bath ground floor duplex residence with a 1,320 square foot landscaped garden located on the corner of South Portland Ave and Dekalb Ave, right across from Fort Greene Park. With common charges and real estate taxes totaling $1,250 per month, this is one of the most affordable homes in Fort Greene. Leading off a row of historic Italianate Brownstones with majestic Plane trees lining landmarked South Portland Avenue, this 1,543 square-foot condominium home welcomes you into a spacious living space framed by a natural dining area, oversized windows, and an open kitchen with glass door leading to the sprawling garden. The great room's dimensions, delicate ceiling crown moldings, red oak flooring with dark contour lines, a wood burning fireplace with a luxurious antique white marble mantel, and a modern kitchen create a warm and lavish living experience for all. The chef's kitchen boasts espresso granite counters, 36" high wood cabinets for ample storage space, a large sink, and stainless-steel appliances including a large Liebherr refrigerator, GE Profile oven range and a double mode Fisher & Paykel dishwasher. A glass windowed door opens onto the recently renovated 1,320sf garden / yard fully equipped with a large deck with seating area, BBQ station, new wood-fence all around the perimeter, numerous planters and flower beds, two tall Plane trees, and a 60 square foot shed in the back. This exquisite amenity is a true gem for entertaining all your friends in total safety and/or enjoying your latent green thumb. In the front of the main level is a large bedroom with three separate closets and two windows inviting light all day long. The bathroom is fully equipped with Toto toilet system, deep soaking Jacuzzi bath, separate shower stall with rain shower head, towel heaters, all wrapped in Calacatta marble and recess lighting. The lower level offers a gracious master bedroom with walls of customized millwork closets, warm natural stone flooring with radiant heat system, a separate half bath, full-size washer/dryer, and an exterior stair leading to the garden. The home is equipped with a two-zone, three wall-mounted AC split system units, and a video-voice intercom on each level. Please note that while this unit is designed and used as a two-bedroom, it is considered a one-bedroom plus recreation room per offering plan. This boutique condo building is comprised of 5 units and offers unbelievably low common charges and real estate taxes. The location is superb on beautiful landmarked South Portland Avenue between Dekalb and Lafayette Avenues. Across the street is Fort Greene Park with its tennis and basketball courts, playgrounds, resting benches, popular Saturday farmer's market, and restaurants such as Paulette's Café, Walter's, and Evelina. Near Barclay's center, BAM, and numerous subway lines for a quick hop to Manhattan.
