The 1922 South Boston factory/headquarters of the Joseph Burnett Company, a manufacturer of vanilla and other flavorings, food colorings, puddings and cake mixes for more than a century, has acquired a new flavor and color as The Lofts at 437 D St., a 42-unit loft condominium.

Now for sale here at $869,000 is a 1-bed, 2-bath penthouse unit with 54 feet of windows, exciting city views, radiant sun, and high, wide living spaces that can be arranged according to your personal taste.

Configure creatively

Home arrangement is a piece of cake in this 1,719-square-foot unit because of how the old concrete supporting columns create vast hardwood floor areas by eliminating the need for walls. This means the sky’s the limit on where and how to configure the dining room and raised living room. The exposed concrete 12-foot ceilings and columns and the industrial detailing bring in the factory aesthetic of an artist’s loft to stimulate your creativity.

Cool custom kitchen

By the dining area is a kitchen with contemporary European cabinetry, granite counters and stainless steel appliances, mixing industrial with high-end finishes.

Diamond in the rough

The family room roughs it with the exposed concrete but refines it with the crimson wall, whetting a spectrum of taste buds.

Mammoth master suite

The sweeping factory floor allows the unit an oversized master suite that interconnects the bedroom with the bath, with a soaking tub as the bridge. Finely honed granite finishes like those in the kitchen awash you in luxury.

The unit’s penthouse level has another plus: 642 square feet of roof rights directly above. This allows the construction of a deck the size of a starter condo for enormous entertaining by the backdrop of stunning city and sea views.

The unit’s current owner also has stamped plans for a potential addition of living space up here to make your penthouse into a duplex.

An elevator-accessed garage parking space comes with the unit. The pet-friendly building has a secured entry.

Seaport scene

Beyond the scenery of the Seaport District is a simmering scene of sights, sounds and smells: the Institute of Contemporary Art, exhibitions at Seaport World Trade Center and the Boston Convention & Exhibition Center, summertime concerts at the Bank of America Pavilion, and more restaurants than you can name: the No Name Restaurant, Anthony’s Pier 4, The Barking Crab and LTK Bar & Kitchen, to name a few.

The Lofts at 437 D St. are also within walking distance of Silver Line bus service to Logan Airport and South Station.
