This week’s quartet of open houses includes three homes that are chock-full of historic detail — woodwork, plaster, leaded glass and more. They also have an abundance of bedrooms — nine at the top end, depending on how you count. And, incredibly for Brooklyn, all of these homes have parking. Three offer garages and one has a deeded parking spot (not included in the purchase price). The homes are in Park Slope, Prospect Park South, Ditmas Park and Borough Park.

First up is a barrel-fronted brownstone on Garfield Place in the Park Slope Historic District. The home, built in 1910, is awash in original woodwork — floors, moldings, mantels, wainscoting and fretwork. The home is configured as a two-family, with an owner’s duplex on the detail-filled lower levels and a two-bedroom rental above. There are four bedrooms and three baths in total. There’s also a deeded parking space available, but you’ll have to ask about the extra cost.

This massive freestanding house on Rugby Road in the Prospect Park South Historic District is over 5,000 square and has seven bedrooms and four full baths. Overflowing with original details, the early 20th century house has moldings, wood floors, a coffered ceiling, a working fireplace and an impressive wall of leaded glass windows along the central staircase. The house has been updated with zoned air conditioning and a finished basement with a gym, wet bar and wine cellar. Outside there’s a landscaped yard with paved pathways and a detached two-car garage.

This detached single-family house on East 17th Street also retains some wonderful details but it could use a bit of work. There is a wood-paneled staircase in the entryway with leaded glass windows and a beamed ceiling in the dining room — although photos show work in progress on those beams. It’s spacious, with living and dining rooms and a renovated kitchen on the first floor and seven bedrooms and three full baths on the two floors above. One of those bathrooms is a massive 15 by 19 feet. The home has plenty of parking — a driveway and a two-car garage.

Last up is a prewar brick row house on 12th Avenue in Borough Park that doesn’t have many original details to speak of, but it does have an interior garage. The two-family home has a floor-through apartment on each level and a garage in the rear of the basement. The lower apartment has an open plan, two bedrooms and access to the finished basement with a laundry room. The top unit has retained at least some of its parquet floors and has three bedrooms.
