Originally built in 1947 and thoughtfully converted into condominiums in 2003, this distinctive factory conversion blends historic charm with modern loft living.
Spanning approximately 1,000 square feet, Residence 2E is a true artist's loft. As you step inside, you're immediately struck by the dramatic scale of the space-soaring nearly 13-foot ceilings and an expansive 20" x 20" open living and dining area create an inspiring and airy atmosphere. Floor-to-ceiling, south-facing windows flood the home with natural light and offer vibrant views of Myrtle Avenue, while wide-plank hardwood floors flow seamlessly throughout, adding warmth and character.
At the heart of the home lies a generously sized chef's kitchen, perfectly positioned between the living space and lofted bedroom. It offers ample cabinetry, abundant counter space, and the ideal layout for entertaining or everyday cooking.
The lofted sleeping area is quintessential Brooklyn-distinctive, spacious, and full of personality. It comfortably fits a king-sized bed and includes plentiful storage, further enhancing the home's functionality and charm.
The Chocolate Factory introduced Brooklyn's first green roof-a unique 5000 sqft. tranquil garden space with panoramic views of Manhattan and Brooklyn plus a rooftop atrium gym. There's 24/7 video security and high-speed Verizon Fios internet included in the building's common charges. Wifi is also available to all residents on the roof if you prefer to work outside. The building is surrounded by many neighborhood favorites including Brooklyn Kolache, Rustik Tavern, Speedy Romeo, Peaches, Sally's, The Swan, Stonefruit, and many more. Transportation is available at the G at Myrtle-Willoughby.
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.
