What was once the former Buster Brown Shoe factory in Chelsea is now the Spencer Lofts.

The industrial building, which was constructed at the turn of the century, was converted to 100 loft condos in 2004 – now one of them is up for sale, not without some modern touches the previous owner left behind.

60 Dudley Street, Apt. 124 has one “bedroom,’’ one bathroom, and 1,086 square feet of living space.

Story continues after gallery.

The loft has a custom raised space that can be used as an office. The sleeping area is raised as well, giving the owner privacy in an otherwise very open concept loft.

There is also a 375-square-foot private patio connected to the unit with plenty of space to have guests over or have a BBQ. Parking is on the other side of the patio.

Architectural period details left in the loft include exposed brick, beams, high ceilings, and huge windows – and it is just a quick ride into Boston.
