In a Neo-Grec brownstone, this floor-through apartment brings original features, a decent amount of space for one or two people, and a minimalist touch in the kitchen and bath. It’s on the penultimate floor of 372 Jefferson Avenue, a four-story, four-unit row house likely dating from the 1880s.

Inside the four-room apartment are high ceilings, diagonal wood floors, and two slate mantels. It also retains its moldings, paneling, and picture rails.

The large front room is shown set up as a bedroom; next door is an office in what would have once been the best bedroom’s bed niche. The latter’s decorative plaster arch still spans one long wall.

The similarly appointed large rear room has room for both lounging and dining. It has gained some space by incorporating the area once given over to pass-throughs between the bedrooms.

The compact kitchen packs in simple plain front cupboards in gray and white, a white laminate countertop, diagonal wood floors, and square white wall tile. The bathroom’s palette of white and gray includes dark penny floor tile, square white wall tile, and white fixtures.

Closets number four. Shared free laundry is in the basement, according to the listing, from Heather Yampolsky of Compass.

The unit is priced at $3,100 a month. Decent deal?
