The 1850 Lofts

The 1850 Lofts is a single-story collection of converted industrial loft residences located in Boston’s South End SoWa district, originally constructed in 1900 and later adapted into condominium units. The property preserves characteristic brick-and-beam architecture with exposed wooden posts and beams, oversized factory-style windows, and polished concrete or plank floors in many units. Interiors typically feature open-plan one-bedroom layouts (with occasional studios and two-bedroom penthouse variants in listings), gourmet kitchens with granite counters, stainless-steel appliances, maple or custom cabinetry, and modern systems such as central air and in-unit laundry hookups. Common elements include an elevator, professionally managed operations, on-site bike storage, and internet availability; exterior amenities reported across listings include city views, shared deck/garden access, and professional landscaping with limited kennel provisions. Parking options are deeded or off-site garage spaces managed adjacent to the building. The conversion retains industrial loft character while providing contemporary finishes, making the property a low-rise, amenity-light residential option embedded in an active arts-and-market neighborhood with straightforward access to transit corridors, highways, grocery and dining destinations.
