About 970 Kent Ave
Move right into this just-renovated 1 bed/2 bath loft at The Kent! At over 1,000 square feet with soaring 12 foot beamed ceilings, the expansive and flexible space lends itself to the easy addition of a true 2nd bedroom. The loft is punctuated by massive north-facing windows letting in beautiful light all day, and there is new white oak hardwood flooring throughout. The open chef's kitchen features white solid wood custom cabinetry, black granite countertops, a subway tile backsplash, and new Miele and GE stainless steel appliances. Both baths feature new vanities and top to bottom new floor and wall tiles. A custom bookcase/media wall defines the living/dining space and ingeniously incorporates a trio of enormous custom-outfitted bedroom closets on its flip side. There is another huge closet in the bedroom, a generous coat closet, and a large laundry closet with a full-size ventless Miele washer/dryer.
