This one-bedroom in a 1936 elevator building has the layout expected in a building of this vintage and some striking tile in the bathroom for lovers of the era. On the fifth floor of 375 76th Street in Bay Ridge, the unit also has a parquet floors, picture rails and some arched doorways.

The six-story building with a Deco doorway, brick detailing and a parapet ornamented with winged creatures wraps around the corner of 4th Avenue. When it was completed in 1936 residents would have been able to take advantage of Marie Asborn’s Swedish Massage Studio, located on the ground floor.

The rooms of the unit all open up off a foyer — exactly how generously it is sized is tough to tell as there isn’t a floor plan. There is a living room with a passthrough to the windowed, eat-in kitchen.

On the other end of the unit is the bedroom with two exposures. In between is the bath, which has most of its yellow tile intact and a striking black triangular border. There are matching black accessories, but the original sink has been replaced and there is a white tile floor. A linen closet is located outside of the bathroom.

The listing doesn’t mention it, but the same photos appear in listings for other units in the building, so they may not be representative. Listed with Dimitri Leonardos of A. M. Residential Marketing, the apartment is priced at $1,750 a month. Worth the ask?
