Property Description for 970 Kent Ave, 603

This enormous loft apartment in Clinton Hill combines industrial chic with modern amenities. Located in a converted factory building, the ceilings of this apartment soar 12 feet high, crossed by exposed concrete beams, and the oversized east-facing windows flood the space with sunlight. With 1,000 square feet of space at your disposal, any number of living/dining/office arrangements are possible here. Currently configured as a one-bedroom, the unit's 100-square-foot alcove could easily be transformed into a second bedroom or den. The bright and oversized living room flows nicely to an open kitchen outfitted with stainless steel appliances, including a dishwasher, ample cabinets and a convenient breakfast bar. The master bedroom includes a huge walk-in closet and one of the home's two full bathrooms. A laundry room and large foyer closet add to the home's thoughtful conveniences. The Kent was built in 1930 and served as an industrial factory for decades before being converted to well-appointed condominium homes. The Kent combines the historical authenticity of its factory days with a renovation that’s decidedly modern, making it a fitting marker for this rapidly developing stretch of Clinton Hill. Amenities include a full-time doorman, a gym and an outdoor running track, a children’s playroom and a common outdoor space, complete with grills. The Kent is steps away from Pratt, and all the restaurants and nightlife this slice of Brooklyn is known for, including Dough, Speedy Romeo, C’mon Everybody and Brooklyn Taphouse. Midtown Manhattan is just over 30 minutes away via the G train a few blocks down the street.

Quick Profile

Known for its historic brownstones and tight-knit enclave, Bed-Stuy has increasingly left behind its early reputation for being a “bedroom community” and transcended into a highly desirable neighborhood. 

Distinct for its aesthetic, it is populated with ornate buildings characterized by cornices, friezes, finials, fluting and other marks of classic architecture. Built up during the period from 1870 to 1900, its historic district runs to the north of Jefferson Avenue, to the east of Malcolm X Boulevard and to the west of Tompkins Avenue. 

At one point known as “Brooklyn’s Little Harlem,” the shape of the area has shifted toward attracting a wider demographic of people thanks to the influx of bars, restaurants, antique furniture stores and vintage boutiques. More police enforcement paired with the decline of the crack epidemic at the beginning of the 2000s also opened the door for increased development, as well as the occupation of formerly abandoned buildings and spaces.
