About this home
Historic Character Meets Modern Living in the Heart of Fort Greene. Nestled along one of Fort Greene’s most picturesque, tree-lined blocks, this expansive three-bedroom, two-bathroom duplex offers a rare combination of historic architectural charm, thoughtfully updated interiors, and a private garden oasis. Located within The Sanctuary Condominium, a landmarked neo-Gothic church originally built in 1915 and converted into intimate condominium residences in 2008, this 1,558-square-foot home offers a distinctive living experience in one of Brooklyn’s most beloved neighborhoods.
The home's spacious and versatile layout unfolds across two levels, offering generous proportions, large windwos, and an effortless flow between indoor and outdoor living.
On the main level, an inviting living and dining area provides ample room for entertaining, relaxing, and everyday living. The open chef’s kitchen features elegant Carrara marble countertops and a substantial island, complemented by dark wood cabinetry, Bosch stainless steel appliances, and a new Fisher & Paykel refrigerator. Whether hosting friends for dinner or enjoying a quiet morning at home, the open layout creates a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
One of the home's most compelling features is its private garden, a peaceful retreat from the energy of the city. Accessible from both levels of the duplex, this outdoor sanctuary features built-in wood bench seating and provides an idyllic setting for alfresco dining, gardening, entertaining, or simply unwinding beneath the trees.
The three bedrooms offer flexibility for a variety of lifestyles, with ample space for a home office, guest accommodations, or growing household. The primary suite was fully renovated in 2022 and features architect-designed custom built-in closets, providing both beauty and exceptional functionality.
Two full bathrooms offer a refined blend of materials and finishes. The upstairs bathroom features Galala beige marble, mosaic tile flooring, and a deep soaking tub, while the beautifully renovated downstairs bathroom showcases Carrara marble mosaics, terracotta tile flooring, and updated fixtures.
Additional highlights include hardwood floors on the upper level, central HVAC with dual-zone climate control updated in 2022, an in-unit LG washer and dryer installed in 2025, and an abundance of storage, including generous closets and extensive under-stair storage.
The Sanctuary is a pet-friendly boutique condominium that blends the character of its historic origins with the comforts of contemporary Brooklyn living. Recent building improvements include a new roof completed in 2023–2024.
The location is quintessential Fort Greene. Just moments from Fort Greene Park, the neighborhood's celebrated restaurants, independent boutiques, cafés, and cultural destinations, residents enjoy an exceptional combination of community and convenience. BAM, the Brooklyn Flea, Whole Foods, and Barclays Center are all nearby, while convenient access to the C and G subway lines, Atlantic Terminal, and the LIRR makes commuting throughout the city and beyond effortless.
With its distinctive history, generous proportions, beautifully updated interiors, and coveted private outdoor space, 264 Cumberland Street, Residence 5 offers a rare opportunity to enjoy the very best of Fort Greene living....
