This flex two-bedroom in an early 20th century apartment building across from Sunset Park, while not huge, has some fun original features. It’s on the first floor of a circa 1915 tapestry-brick walkup whose address is 4121 7th Avenue. According to PropertyShark, all of the building’s 16 units are rent regulated.

The apartment has a typical flexible layout that is also found in the area’s early Finnish co-ops, with a second bedroom that could also work as a living or dining room. It has French doors under a transom and is at the opposite end of the unit from the other bedroom. The combined living-dining room has a niche, paneling under the windows and high wainscoting with an embossed wallcovering such as Anaglypta or Lincrusta.

There are wood floors and original moldings in most of the rooms. The bathroom and kitchen, pictured under renovation, appear basic but functional. Heat and hot water are included, but the listing does not mention laundry in the building.

The four-story building’s ornate entrance and hallway can be spied in an old listing. Listed by Aleza Pellegrino of Compass, the apartment is asking $2,200 a month. What do you think?
