In an early 20th century row house just outside of the recently designated 58th Street Historic District, a parlor-level floor-through has attractive original details and an eye-catching pink bathroom dating from the mid 20th century.

It’s one of three units in the three-story yellow brick building at 518 58th Street, all of which appear to be rentals. The four-room apartment has one bedroom and an interior room that could work as a dining room or office.

The living room boasts a wood mantel with original tile. There is original woodwork, parquet with inlaid borders and high ceilings throughout the unit.

The kitchen appears sturdy and serviceable with rental-standard wood cabinets and what may be a cork tile floor. There is no mention of a dishwasher or laundry. The floor plan shows three closets and a kitchen pantry.

The bedroom, located in the rear in what was originally the unit’s dining room, is large. All the rooms have ceiling fans. A circa ’40s bathroom that will please pink-bathroom aficionados has pink-and-white checkerboard tile and color-coordinated fixtures.

Listed by Kurt Vikki of Compass, the apartment is asking $1,950 a month. Worth it?

Editor’s note: Well, that was quick. The unit has rented.
