Property Description

The "Hancock Garage" is that unicorn property that you have been waitingfor. The building goes street to street from Hancock to Palethorp St, containing 2 living spaces, 2 kitchens, 2 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, a workshop, a billiard room, a loft, and one enormous garage. This is the former site of the Crompton's Potato Chip factory as can be seen on the ghost signage that was discovered on the faade of the building.Located just on the edge of Norris Square park, and a quick walk to the Berks Street subway stop, and all the restaurants opening up along Front St, this neighborhood is exploding with development all around. The current owner renovated the inside of the garage in 2016 and used reclaimed materials from a former factory in the neighborhood, the interior wood, windows, doors and siding as are all repurposed. The two story house that faces Hancock Street is a 1 bedroom, 1 full bath home with kitchen, and new windows. This would be perfect to use as a rental or Air Bnb. The garage opens up into a large 2 story space that could easily accommodate 5-6 vehicles. The garage has also served as a creative space for movie nights with the projector and screen, as well as art exhibits, grand dinner parties, and the setting for a music video production. The rear portion of the building is the second living space, that can be accessed through the garage or by Palethorp Street. This living space has central air, comes with a vintage bar in the living room, the eat-in kitchen is finished with Corian countertops, custom built shelving, and a large pantry. On the second floor is a full bath and bedroom with double closets, and a skylight with ceiling fan . A secret passage way leads you to the billiard room in the loft that overlooks the garage. The loft has plenty of room for entertaining, and a large storage room as well. Under the loft you have additional rooms that you could use to increase the living area or continue to use as a work shop, and wood shop. The half bath and laundry room are located here as well. This is a large space that has endless possibilities. The sale also includes the addresses 2029 Palethorp & 2027 Palethorp Street at the rear of the building that are zoned CMX2.
