This small Park Slope one-bedroom was remodeled to extend the kitchen into the living room, creating a little more cooking space. On the second floor of the 1920s building at 333 4th Street, the unit still has wood floors, picture rails and wall moldings.

Known as Helena Hof When completed in 1929, it was a six-story brick building with 60 units designed by architect Joseph Martine for H and B Trading Corp. The modest advertisements because the elevator building boasted the “ideal location” and amenities such as incinerators and electric refrigerators.

Inside the apartment, a small foyer with walk-in closet has an arched opening to the living space. The spacious room still has its wall moldings and wooden floors; Recessed lighting and the expanded kitchen are new. A peninsula juts out into the living room with space for seating on one side and under-counter appliances on the other.

The kitchen itself is windowed and narrow, with white cabinets, a stainless steel countertop and open shelving. The appliances are small and suit the space, with a small hob, but there is still a dishwasher.

The bedroom, which is large enough for a king bed, is off the foyer and has two closets, two windows, wall moldings, picture rails and a wood floor.

All-white finishes fill the bathroom, from the modern wall-mounted sink to the wall and floor tile.

The building has a laundry facility, a live-in super and storage. There is also a “liberal” subletting policy once owners have occupied their apartment for two years, the advertisement said. The maintenance for this device is $962 per month.

Records show the condo sold earlier this fall for $640,000. Brandon Marianne Lee of Compass has the current listing and the device costs $650,000. What do you think?
