The living area is open plan with designated spaces for cooking, dining, working and lounging. The kitchen has ample cabinet space and a large island with a granite countertop and seating for at least 4 people. Adjacent to this is an office nook and then a cute balcony, perfect for a handy vegetable garden. The dining area is oversized with enough space for a large table and then finally, the corner lounge area is bathed in light from 3 aspects during the day and offers twinkling Manhattan views at night. The building has forced heat and air, yet this unit is the only one to have upgraded to a Mitubishi mini-split system which is efficient and whisper quiet. This upgrade freed up space for a 6'x3'x3' in-unit storage space tucked away up high. The Chocolate Factory was built in 1947 and converted to condos in 2003 introducing Brooklyn?s first green roof?a unique 5000 sq. ft. tranquil garden space with panoramic views of Manhattan and Brooklyn plus a rooftop atrium gym, giving you everything you need right at home.
