This week’s open house picks are all brick houses that are move-in-ready and have at least some original interior features. Located in Greenpoint, Prospect-Lefferts Gardens, Bay Ridge and Midwood, they range in asking price from $935,000 for one with parking in Midwood to $3.75 million for a row house in Greenpoint. Keep in mind that most open houses still require appointments to be scheduled before viewing.

Located on the scenic Milton Street in the Greenpoint Historic District, this single-family row house has an 1890s neo-Classical exterior and a remodeled interior. There are exposed beams and brick walls alongside original wood floors and stained glass. The rear of the parlor level has been opened up and now includes a dining area, a kitchen with custom-made cabinets, a pantry, breakfast nook and a half bath. Upstairs are four bedrooms, a study and one of the two full baths in the house. Like most of the houses on the block, it’s got a deep front yard and there’s also a landscaped backyard with a brick patio and raised planting beds.

In Prospect-Lefferts Gardens this bow-fronted early 20th century brick row house is set up as a two-family, with one floor-through apartment per floor plus a basement. It’s been in the same family for decades and, while the kitchen could use some style upgrades, what’s shown appears move-in ready. (Bathrooms are not pictured.) Original details include wood floors and moldings. There’s a rear garden surrounded by a chain link fence.

This Bay Ridge early 20th century brick house comes with a renovated interior and a parking spot. The single-family home has original parquet floors and wall moldings, and the renovated kitchen is open to the dining room. The latter has vintage style with a coffered ceiling and built-ins with stained glass doors. The enclosed front porch — which has a wooden slat ceiling and a wall of windows — is set up as a home office. There are four bedrooms and 1.5 baths. The parking spot is located behind the house, with access off 7th Avenue.

Finally, it’s another early 20th century brick house, but this one’s in Midwood and has some 1920s style. On the exterior, the historic tax photo shows, it has had some alterations but the house retains its angled bay and Spanish tile roof. On the interior, the single-family home has arched openings, hardwood floors, stained glass and built-in bookcases. The kitchen has a retro pop with an orange countertop. There are three bedrooms and a full bath upstairs, plus an additional half bath on each of the lower floors. There’s a parking pad in front, a wood deck out back and solar panels on the roof.
