Here’s a two-bedroom apartment in a distinguished Park Slope manse, which among other attributes features an awesome vintage kitchen that looks ripped from the pages of a World War II-era Ladies Home Journal. It’s on the fourth floor at 315 Garfield Place, a stunner of a brownstone that was built circa 1889, a half block from Prospect Park and in the Park Slope Historic District.

The house, which has been on the market several times over the past decade and featured more than once as a House of the Day, is awash in period detail, and there’s a bit of it in the apartment, which has parquet floors (and other wood floors in a distinctive pattern) and a stained glass window.

The most notable feature, though, is the aforementioned kitchen, which has cute vintage style cabinetry, a throwback formica backsplash and a vintage stove in prime shape. (The Miele dishwasher is an exception.)

The house is near 27 feet wide, so it makes for a spacious apartment, with a large master bedroom with a pair of walk-in closets and a living room of over 225 square feet — albeit one with a roof slope in the front, and diminutive windows as a result.

The second bedroom has the same slope, and is on the smaller side; it also is only accessible via the hallway.

There’s central AC, skylights in the bathroom, front hallway and stairway, and a washer/dryer, and the park is close at hand.

Listed by Claire McFeely of Compass, the apartment is renting for $4,495 a month, a price that few would hail as a bargain, but is probably not a stretch either. What do you think?
