In the heart of Scott’s Addition, this striking two story loft delivers historic character with a fresh, modern edge. Originally home to Baker Equipment, a renowned early 1900s manufacturer of commercial vehicles and fire engines, Hook & Ladder Lofts has been thoughtfully restored to preserve its industrial character while introducing the finishes and systems today’s buyers expect, even retaining the original hook as a nod to its past. This 3 bedroom, 2 bath loft offers 1,628 square feet of well designed living space, featuring a first floor primary suite with a full bath, an updated kitchen with clean modern lines that flows into a dedicated dining area, and carefully selected finishes throughout. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms and a full bath are complemented by a unique flex space off the third bedroom that is ideal for a home gym, studio, or creative workspace, leading to an open air balcony filled with natural light. Recent upgrades include new electrical service, energy efficient lighting, and all new interior finishes, while the exterior has been fully revitalized with a new roof, reglazed windows, restored brickwork, and upgraded lighting. Located in one of Richmond’s most vibrant neighborhoods, Scott’s Addition offers an unmatched lifestyle with breweries, restaurants, cafes, and fitness studios all just moments away. This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Richmond history reimagined for modern living. Photos shown is of a similar model within the community and may not reflect the exact loft.
