In a 1930 brick co-op in the Clinton Hill Historic District, this one-bedroom, one-bathroom rental displays nearly pristine surfaces in a large footprint. The unit on the second floor of 451 Clinton Avenue is so big, in fact, a small family highly motivated to live in the neighborhood could conceivably use it as a two-bedroom.

In the prewar features department are high ceilings, original woodwork and parquet floors. A recent update has burnished the floors, smoothed the walls, introduced unobtrusive recessed lighting, painted the bathroom navy and remodeled the kitchen.

The layout has at least three flex spaces within its four rooms. The large foyer with coat closet could serve as a library, dining room or office. More than 22 feet long, the living room could also easily fit a dining table, office or, at the far end by the window, a second sleeping area. The eat-in kitchen is outfitted with a breakfast nook for dining or working.

The kitchen is mostly white, with hardwood floors, white subway tile walls, a dishwasher, and plenty of storage space as well as open shelving. The updated bathroom is similarly hued with white subway tile walls, a deep vintage tub with shower, pedestal sink, and navy blue walls. The home has three closets.

There is laundry and bike storage in the six-story, 31-unit elevator building.

Available March 1, the apartment is listed for $3,400 a month by Suzanne Koxvold of Compass. A board interview is required. Worth the monthly nut?
