Lowell was one of the original old mill towns to get a loft makeover. Other mill towns, Waltham being one of them, haven't made the leap to converting there old mill buildings (no more office space, we want lofts!) to residential space. North Andover, Haverhill, Lawrence, and especially Lowell have cashed in on there wonderful historic mills and created loft renovations and North of Boston Lofts.com applauds it! After all what goes better with a new loft with big windows than a water view?
The Lowell Lofts as they are known include several different Loft buildings all within the same general downtown area (where the mills were originally clustered together) and within walking distance of transportation, restaurants, and shopping. Some are strictly condos but some are dedicated to rentals. The value here is huge! Were talking enormous spaces with the average loft being over 1300 square feet with 14 foot ceilings these are the lofts we dream about.
Many of the Loft buildings have fantastic amenities as well. Board on a weekend? Perhaps you would like to play a game of basketball on the half court in your building or visit the art gallery that features local artists who just might be your neighbor. Speaking of artists, living in Lowell means you can be a short stroll from the Lowell Summer Music Festival. The Festival is an annual music extravaganza that features BIG name acts (Ani Difranco!) who preform on a tiny outdoor stage in a tiny National Park area. A great chance to see your favorite act up close and personal under the stars.
If you are considering the Merrimack Valley I would strongly recommend considering these lofts. These lofts are a big bang for your buck with the average loft listed at only $1250! We have to admit were a little smitten!
