Description

BACK ON THE MARKET LOFT LOVERS This 862sf 13ft condo LOFT can be used as a 1 bedroom and is for sale at The Chocolate Factory located on the border of Bedford-Stuyvesant and Clinton Hill. This LOFT boasts a unique layout with tons of LIGHT, WINDOWS and STORAGE. The unique sleeping platform with over 8 feet of head clearance is located above STORAGE under the sleeping area.

The spacious bathroom hosts the washer/dryer along with a jacuzzi bathtub. This open kitchen is adorned with stainless steel appliances including a dishwasher, seating at the granite countertop and an abundance of cabinets for storage. The LOFT features a projector and screen large enough to make a movie theatre envious.

Imagine the entertainment your home can accommodate. The windows in the living room span the entire wall and it looks like an artist commissioned photo with the views of Brooklyn artistically landscaped. Dining, working, cooking and relaxing are designed to operate succinctly in this artistic space.

Built in 1947 and converted to residential lofts in 2002, The Chocolate Factory Condominium has one of Brooklyn’s ONLY green "roof decks" with actual crickets and butterflies! A glass enclosed ROOF DECK GYM with Manhattan (Freedom Tower & Empire State Building) and Brooklyn skylines are located next to the manicured garden. Other amenities include a video intercom where you can hear your doorbell, see who is at your door and buzz them in from your cell and/or apartment.

24/7 video security, high speed Verizon internet, a bike room, and WiFi are located on the roof so you can work outside with panoramic views in peace and serenity. Also, a facade renovation was just completed to prevent any damage to the building from Mother Nature. The G train to Myrtle-Willoughby is 2 and a half blocks away and buses surround the building to get you to the A, C, F, Q, N, R, 2, 3, 4, 5, J, M, Z within 10 minutes.

Wholefoods, Trader Joe’s, Wegman’s, Fairway, Costco, Fresh Direct, many organic/health food stores, and restaurants deliver to the building along with other major conveniences.
