About This Property
This stunning loft-like apartment at The Pencil Factory in prime Greenpoint offers the perfect blend of historic character and modern finishes. Spanning approximately 1,114 square feet, this spacious apartment offers two generously sized bedrooms, two large bathrooms, a washer/dryer, and sweeping views of the NYC skyline.
The apartment features high ceilings and hardwood floors, while its ideal floor-through layout, with two exposures, ensures that each room is filled with natural light. The spacious living and dining area is thoughtfully designed with separate seating for both, anchored by a built-in banquette. The open kitchen is beautifully appointed with ample cabinetry, stone countertops, stainless steel appliances, a classic subway tile backsplash, and an oversized island with counter-height seating.
The primary bedroom is a serene retreat with excellent storage, including a wall of custom-built cabinetry, and a recently renovated spa-like bathroom complete with a double-sink vanity, illuminated medicine cabinets, and a wet room with double rainfall showers and a soaking tub. The bedroom comfortably fits a king-sized bed. The second bedroom is also filled with southern light all day, and easily accommodates a queen-sized bed. A full guest bathroom and a washer/dryer complete the home.
Originally constructed in 1872 for the Eberhard Faber pencil company and converted to condominiums in 2011, The Pencil Factory offers a rich sense of history with modern amenities, including a virtual doorman, full-time super, package room, residents’ lounge with kitchen and pool table, fitness center, storage lockers, common roof deck, children's playroom, and bike storage. Ideally located near the India Street Ferry, the G train, and Greenpoint’s celebrated restaurants, cafés, and boutiques.
Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Compass.
The floor-through layout of this 1,114-square-foot, two-bedroom condo runs across two exposures, with hardwood floors throughout. The living and dining area has separate seating for each, anchored by a built-in banquette, so the two spaces feel distinct without being closed off from each other.
The kitchen is open and built around an oversized island with counter-height seating, so you can cook while the living area stays in view. The stone countertops, stainless steel appliances and subway tile backsplash are a clean, classic set. An open plan gives up some separation between cooking and sitting down, but for most people that's a fair trade.
The primary bedroom has a wall of custom-built cabinetry, which handles a lot of storage, and it fits a king-sized bed. The primary bathroom was renovated recently and pairs two sinks in one vanity with lit cabinets above it, plus a wet room fitted with a pair of rain showerheads and a soaking tub. The second bedroom is filled with southern light and fits a queen-sized bed. On an open horizon, a south-facing window gets about 8.5 hours of direct sun in winter and about 10 hours in spring and fall, though nearby buildings can block some of it.
The building has six stories and 93 units, with an elevator, garage parking, a gym, a billiard room, a bike room and a roof deck. Cats and dogs are allowed. The in-unit washer and dryer means laundry stays at home.
The G train at Greenpoint Av is about 7 minutes on foot, WNYC Transmitter Park is about 2 minutes away, and Jubilee Marketplace is about 2 minutes for groceries. Lingo and Radio Star are each about 2 minutes away as well.
