Looking for an apartment to rent around Fort Greene or Clinton Hill? We’ve rounded up a few spaces available in the neighborhood to help you on your hunt. If you live in one of the apartment buildings, let prospective neighbors know how you like it.

Perfectly Placed Postage Stamp Studio
Available: September 1
Price: $1,640, plus broker fee
Details: Continue reading at your own risk of not scooping this place up before someone else does. There’s no pretending this studio on Cumberland Street near Lafayette Avenue isn’t itty bitty (listing photos are of a comparable unit), but who needs space when you’ve got serious location at this price? If you ever plan on dining in again with all of Fort Greene’s outstanding restaurants on your doorstep, the kitchen in this unit has a breakfast bar to seat two, plus there’s laundry and bike storage in the basement. Dining, shopping, entertainment, transportation–why are you still reading?

Pretty, Pratty One Bed with Outdoor Space
Available: Immediately
Price: $1,900, plus broker fee
Details: At 700 sq ft, this one bedroom on Lafayette Avenue between Grand and St James will probably give you a little more room to stretch than the studio above–especially considering its patio and garden. The apartment has pretty details like a mantel and exposed brick, plus a mostly functional kitchen, although you might choose to invest in an island/table. It’s not quite as close to the hustle and bustle of things as Listing #1, but if you work at Pratt or just prefer things to be a little quieter, well, welcome home.

Reduced Three Bed Overlooking the Park
Available: Immediately
Price: $3,600, plus broker fee
Details: This unit has been on the market for several weeks, and as such was just dropped down from $3,800. It’s on Washington Park, putting you close to Fort Greene Park activities, our local, soon-to-be-even-better Greenmarket, and amenities on Myrtle and Dekalb. Besides that, it has cool, quirky old details, nooks, and crannies, what looks like a big enough galley kitchen, and the pièce de résistance? A washer and dryer in unit.

Whole Revamped Brownstone off Fulton
Available: September 1
Price: $8,600, plus broker fee
Details: Ay, caramba, this little filly is gorgeous! She’s got six and a half bedrooms, three and a half baths, three floors plus a cellar, two levels of private outdoor space, and all the classic touches and modern upgrades you could ask for. $1,400ish per room isn’t unheard of around here, so grab some buddies and make yourselves at home–just know you’ll be paying all utilities, and you might have to deal with forthcoming excavation and condo construction at 502 Waverly across Fulton Street.
