Factory House at 42-60 Crescent St. #PH10D

Atop the Factory House, this coveted three bedroom, two bath, penthouse is the ultimate in industrial cool, with a sprawling layout and generous outdoor space. This penthouse spans across an expansive 1,952 square feet and boasts two large private outdoor terraces with panoramic views that total almost 2,000 square feet, ideal for entertaining. The residence features brick interior walls, rustic wood floors, and expansive windows. Adding old-fashioned character, prewar-inspired double-hung windows frame lofty urban views of midtown Manhattan or Long Island City. Modern convenience is at the heart of factory house’s open kitchens, with fine rift-cut red oak cabinets, white Caesarstone countertops, stainless steel apron-front sinks with spring coiled faucets and pot fillers, and a tile backsplash. Also highlighted, are top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances including a Miele dishwasher, Viking electric range cook-top and hood, single wall oven and a double door Viking refrigerator. Bathrooms feature Kohler tubs and Grohe faucets and are well-appointed and distinctive, combining the polish of Venetian bronze fixtures with uniquely distressed porcelain tiles in shower and floor. Additionally, the residence includes an in-unit washer and dryer. Evoking Long Island City’s industrial past, Factory House’s 1 to 3-bedroom condominiums reference the area’s manufacturing legacy with a sleek warehouse feel. This new boutique residence revives a level of historic architectural detail often lost in new construction. Inside this 10-story building, sunlight floods through the airy two-story lobby’s floor-to-ceiling windows to illuminate rustic porcelain tile, red brick walls and sculptural steel beams. A dramatic second-floor open balcony overlooks the lobby, a prime perch to admire the uniquely textured flooring and the ceiling’s wooden joists. Factory House offers a full range of services and amenities including an attended lobby, on-site parking garage and bicycle storage. On the second floor, the fitness center and children’s playroom open onto a spacious landscaped resident terrace. On the third floor, the residents’ library lounge provides a sun-filled space for reading, relaxing or socializing.
