Work/Live in a Chic, Historic, and Exceptionally Rare unit — A True South End Gem!

Welcome to an extraordinary, designer-renovated property in Factory Lofts, one of Charlotte’s most iconic and coveted buildings—formerly the historic Lance Cracker Factory and now home to just 50 exclusive offices/homes. Set in the heart of South End, Charlotte’s hottest and most dynamic neighborhood, this home blends industrial heritage with refined, designer-level sophistication. Perfect for interior designers, attorneys, artists, you name it! #217 is currently set up as a one-bedroom plus office space, this unit was gut-renovated by an internationally known interior designer as her personal residence, resulting in a level of craftsmanship and finish rarely seen in the market. Soaring 15′ ceilings, refinished hardwood floors, a stunning Thassos marble backsplash in the kitchen, and a Carrara marble bathroom countertop set a timeless, elevated tone throughout. Thoughtfully designed custom closets maximize storage, while curated lighting by Visual Comfort adds warmth and architectural drama. The loft-like layout offers exceptional versatility—perfect as a primary residence, pied-à-terre, or income-producing investment. Even more rare, Factory Lofts is one of Charlotte’s only true LIVE/WORK buildings, allowing you to operate a boutique business, studio, or office directly from the unit. Additional highlights include gated parking, separate storage, and abundant original factory details that celebrate the building’s historic character.
