This Crown Heights one-bedroom sits at the top floor of a brownstone, and offers good light, some original details and ample space. It’s at 5 St. Charles Place, a block-long street that runs between Lincoln and St. Johns places, close to the bars and restaurants of Franklin Avenue and the subway stop at Franklin and Eastern Parkway.

There looks to be a den — originally a bedroom, but not a legal one now, owing to the lack of a window — between the front and rear rooms, plus an additional half-bedroom in the front. Perhaps someone could fit a bed in there and work this as a share, or it could serve as an office space for a single tenant, who’d have no shortage of space to play with.

That extends to the kitchen, which is big enough to fit a small table, and has a good-sized window and a new stainless steel fridge.

There are built-in shelves, drawers and cabinets in the rear and middle rooms, moldings and a pair of tiled wood mantels. Floors are original wood. The baseboard heaters are a bit of a downer, but easy enough to live with.

Candice Vilaire of Brooklyn Heights Real Estate is the broker, the rent is $2,500 a month. Want in?
