Description

Showings by appointment only and bring your contractor! This home is not ready to be lived-in as-is, but it IS a super unique opportunity to purchase a raw 1200 SF authentic loft space with a private balcony and 13’ ceilings for a great price, and then renovate it to your own individual needs! This rare corner unit has been stripped down to just the studs, concrete floor and exposed concrete columns after a fire a few years ago, and now awaits an enterprising buyer to purchase it as-is and make it the home of their dreams!

The Chocolate Factory is a 1947 former factory converted to condos in 2003 and includes an elevator.

Situated where Clinton Hill, Bed-Stuy and Williamsburg meet, the neighborhood bustles with creative energy. Known for its artistic residents and an awe-inspiring rooftop outdoor space (with a rooftop gym surrounded by glass; panoramic views of Brooklyn, Manhattan, and Queens; and a lush succulent garden), this is a space both tranquil and dramatic where you will find yourself right at home.

Situated on a high floor with incredible light, every dollar you put into this home you will get back, plus even more! Due to the corner orientation that includes massive casement windows on two sides, you can very easily renovate it into a spacious two-bedroom apartment.

With its 13’ soaring ceilings, there is even space to build out an additional loft area, plus 2 full bathrooms, and still enjoy a very capacious living room and kitchen with an easy flow to the private balcony area. It is very rare to find a true industrial loft space that also offers private outdoor space, so you don’t want to miss this one!
Enjoy an elevator to whisk you up to the 4th floor, plus professional management. And if the space and light and opportunity to custom build are not enough enticement, come and visit for the location.

Clinton Hill has become one of Brooklyn’s most dynamic neighborhoods, chock full of fine dining, Pratt Institute, and fantastic amenities in every direction. Easy access to Fort Greene Park, the Navy Yard and the many amenities of Bed-Stuy and Williamsburg within walking distance. Do NOT forget to bring your contractor when you come for your visit to this amazing space!
