This two-bedroom in an 1880s brownstone in the Prospect Heights Historic District has a large roof deck, charming historic details, and light coming in through windows on three sides. It’s perched just above a ground-floor restaurant in a corner building at 150 St. Marks Avenue.

The oriel window under a shouldered arch in the living room is striking, and there are also high ceilings, wood floors, and moldings. In the large kitchen is a tin ceiling and early 20th century wall tile, as well as recently updated white cupboards, tile floor, and a dishwasher.

Both bedrooms have closets; the larger of the two also has a presumably decorative hearth and chimney breast of white-painted exposed brick.

Also recently updated, the mostly white bathroom has white subway tile on the wall and black hardware. There is a stacked washer and dryer. The roof deck, accessible via the kitchen, has a built-in bench and what appears to be bluestone paving.

While the listing is mum on air conditioning, a parking space is available for an additional and unspecified fee.

Listed by Kellen Koon of Compass and available October 1, the apartment is priced at $6,500 a month. Worth it?
