This first-floor one bedroom sits in a classic red brick building on a quiet Van Vorst Park block. The living room has a full-height exposed brick chimney with the original arched hearth, oak hardwood floors, and two large windows that keep it bright all day, with room for a sofa, table, and desk plus a deep shelved closet.

The breakfast bar seats three, and a full-size LG washer and dryer sits alongside extra pantry storage. The bedroom fits a queen with room to spare, with two windows, a ceiling fan, a good-sized closet, and a glass French door that keeps it bright even when closed.
