THE VAN GLAHN LOFT | CLINTON HILL
88 feet of industrial scale, private roof rights, and deeded storage

Stretching nearly 88 feet from end to end, this approximately 1,479-square-foot floor-through is the kind of authentic Brooklyn loft that has become increasingly difficult to find. Created from raw industrial space by its architect-owner, the residence retains the material character of the original building—exposed brick, timber joists and old plank floors—while precise, understated interventions make it exceptionally livable. Approximately 19 feet wide, long uninterrupted sightlines create a remarkable sense of volume, while the flexible plan offers the potential for two or three bedrooms. Central heating and air conditioning and a working gas fireplace complete the space.

LIVING, DINING & KITCHEN
The nearly 19-by-19-foot living room anchors the residence with exceptional scale and three tall eastern windows. From here, living, dining and kitchen spaces unfold along the loft’s extraordinary 88-foot axis, allowing art, furniture and objects to live naturally within the architecture. The custom kitchen features a 36-inch integrated Thermador refrigerator, six-burner Viking cooktop, Fisher & Paykel wall oven, Bosch dishwasher and bespoke cabinetry with dovetailed maple drawer boxes.

BEDROOMS & BATH
At the quieter end of the loft, the sleeping quarters are removed from the primary living spaces, with two full bathrooms and the flexibility to accommodate two or potentially three bedrooms depending on configuration. An in-unit washer and dryer and ample integrated storage provide the practical comforts of a contemporary home.

PRIVATE ROOF & STORAGE
Approximately 753 square feet of private roof rights—the entire front half of the building’s roof—offer the potential to create an extraordinary outdoor counterpart to the loft below. The residence also includes approximately 320 square feet of private deeded cellar storage.

BUILDING
Originally constructed in 1892 in the Romanesque Revival style by architect John Graham Glover, 62 Washington Avenue was part of Wallabout’s industrial district and once housed the Van Glahn Brothers Wholesale Grocery Company. Its masonry façade, arched windows, corbel detailing and industrial proportions preserve the character of its late-19th-century origins. Today, the building is an intimate three-unit boutique condominium with one private residence per floor, combining historic industrial character with exceptional privacy and scale.

LOCATION
Set in Clinton Hill near the historic Wallabout district, the residence is surrounded by the neighborhood’s distinctive mix of brownstones, repurposed industrial architecture, tree-lined streets, cafés, restaurants and independent shops, with convenient access to Fort Greene and the Brooklyn Navy Yard. It is also located in one of the increasingly rare pockets of Clinton Hill where street parking can still be found.
