About This Home
The Helicopter Factory embodies avant-garde luxury urban living, a stunning transformation of an industrial warehouse once home to visionary inventor Emile Berliner in the early 20th century. Originally a workshop for lightweight helicopter engines, this historic structure now houses an exclusive collection of luxury loft residences, with Unit #7W standing as the pinnacle of this reimagined space.
Spanning an impressive 5,077 square feet, Unit #7W masterfully integrates original rustic elements with refined contemporary luxuries. Spectacular exposed support beams and rich red brick walls define the open-concept main level, maintaining the building’s commercial heritage while evoking a warm, inviting ambiance. Open sightlines and soaring ceilings create an undeniable sense of grandeur, complemented by wide plank flooring and quadruple-hinged doors that speak to the residence’s exceptional quality.
The expansive main living area is thoughtfully divided into intimate niches, including a billiards space, a media room with a retractable projector screen, and a cozy sitting area. Reclaimed wooden barn doors introduce the embassy-sized formal dining room, ideal for sophisticated private gatherings. The chef’s kitchen, set against an exposed brick wall with open shelving, features a large marble center island with integrated seating, a commercial-grade Viking range, and a heavy-duty hood vent. A comprehensive suite of stainless steel appliances and a farmhouse sink complete this culinary haven.
The exposed wood and metal staircase, a functional work of art, is bathed in natural light from a large picture window and highlighted by a striking Restoration Hardware chandelier—one of many designer fixtures throughout the home. The upper-level landing offers a welcoming living area, leading to the primary suite through double doors. This luxurious retreat includes a private sitting area with a linear fireplace, a marble bath with dual vanities and a freestanding tub, and a spacious dressing room with a built-in island. A generously proportioned secondary suite with its own walk-in closet, along with two additional bedrooms, a hall bath, and laundry facilities, complete the upper level.
The penthouse level is designed for both relaxation and entertainment. An extensive marble wet bar with a built-in drinks fridge and an ethereal fitness studio framed by two walls of glass create a versatile space. Stackable doors open onto the wraparound rooftop patio, offering breathtaking views and ample room for multiple seating areas and al fresco dining. A private automatic roll-up door reveals a stylish, secure carport with two parking spaces—an exceptional luxury in the city.
Perfectly situated near public transit, trendy cafes, shopping, and entertainment, Unit #7W at The Helicopter Factory offers a refreshing take on luxury urban living without compromise.
