This 19th-century townhouse at 11A South Portland Avenue sits just steps from the entrance to Fort Greene Park. Asking $6,125,000, the 4,913-square-foot three-family property counts among its standout features seven fireplaces, a verdant garden, historic details, and modern upgrades like a dual cooling/heating HVAC system. Within, antique chandeliers, crown molding, and ceiling medallions are framed by high ceilings, herringbone hardwood floors with border inlays, tall mahogany windows, doorway arches, marble, and polished stone tiles.
At the top level of the home’s lower triplex, the crown jewel of the grand parlor floor is a rounded, glass-walled, climate-controlled conservatory. Stone walls and radiant-heated bluestone pavers wrap a built-in entertainment system, all below a glass atrium roof.
Also on this floor are formal living and dining rooms, a powder room, a wet bar, and a galley kitchen with bespoke millwork and top-of-the-line appliances including a Sub-Zero fridge.
On the lower level of the triplex are two bedrooms and two-and-a-half bathrooms. Bedrooms boast walk-in closets and en-suite baths. Just outside, a private backyard offers a garden oasis with two dozen mid-size trees, a lion’s head waterfall, and an in-ground Jacuzzi. At the lowest level is a finished cellar offering a media room behind brick archways with radiant heated stone flooring.
On the home’s two upper floors are two more units for substantial rental income. These sunny apartments each have one bedroom, one and a half bathrooms, and a laundry room. Spacious, well-appointed kitchens have stone worktops, lots of cabinets, and breakfast bars. Bedrooms offer large closets, decorative fireplaces, en-suite baths, and a view of the garden below.
