MAINTENANCE $3,500 a month
 
PROS The former church’s original architectural details and the layout make it a unique and beautiful living space. In addition to the historic windows, the home has several skylights, making it exceptionally bright and airy. The apartment is about a block from the 2, 3, 4, 5 and R trains at Court Street/Borough Hall and less than a 10-minute walk to Brooklyn Bridge Park.
 
CONS The kitchen and bathroom renovations are on the older side. There are no legal bedrooms; the last occupant used the large, uppermost level as a sleeping area and there are two windowless rooms off the main living space below that could also be used for sleep. The building is a walk-up; there are also multiple flights of stairs within the apartment itself, which could present issues for some.
