Here’s a 1.5-bedroom flat in the Bedford Historic District rich with original details and nicely updated. Located on the fourth floor of a five-story 1890s Queen Anne brownstone at 187 Hancock Street, the unit has a number of historic details in addition to central air and and a laundry.

Designed by noted 19th architects Frederick B. Langston and Magnus Dahlander, the property is a former Building of the Day.

The space could work for a couple or single renter with the means, or a young family who could use the small second bedroom as a nursery.

Historic notes include parquet floors, wood shutters, two lovely wood mantels with tile and summer covers, woodwork and a fretwork screen between the living room and kitchen.

The master bedroom fits a king-sized bed and then some, and a closet. The second bedroom looks to have room only for a full-sized bed, and no closet.

The subway-tiled galley kitchen has space for a small table, as well as open, overhead shelving and a dishwasher. The renovated bathroom has a tub and subway tile.

The unit also has a laundry room and walk-in closet, according to the listing.

The home is 3.5 blocks from the Nostrand Avenue A and C station on a quaint stretch of Hancock Street full of historic row houses.

Halstead’s Jacqueline DeVane has the listing, which is asking for $2,850 a month. Worth it?
