In addition to high ceilings and big windows, a grand studio loft in a former bank building boasts room for books, a colorful kitchen, and elegant tile. In the Cobble Hill Historic District at 191 Clinton Street, the former South Brooklyn Savings Institution dates from 1871 and was designed by E. L. Roberts in the Neo-Grec style with a marble facade.

On the second floor of the five-story, 20-unit elevator building, the apartment opens into a large foyer and wide hall, which wrap around a closet topped by a loft bed accessible by ladder. There is room for books in the foyer and hall.

Overlooking the corner of Atlantic Avenue, the living room has four large windows on two exposures, all with window seats. Wood floors and parquet with inlaid borders run through most of the rooms.

The kitchen combines minimalist white cabinetry with pops of color in the form of a green-glazed tile backsplash, orange and white check floor, and sky blue painted wall and ceiling. There is a dishwasher, in-unit laundry, another window seat, and radiant heat under the cork floor.

In the black and white bathroom is a mosaic hex tile floor, white subway wall tile with black grout, and insets of a black and white floral mural tile in the step-in shower. There is also a console sink, hefty hardware, and a beveled oval mirror.

Monthly fees for this unit comprise $709 in common charges and $330 in taxes. An open house by appointment only is set for Sunday, December 7 from 10 to 11 a.m.
