Skylight Lofts, in downtown Urbana, Ohio, is an historic 3-story Victorian brick building just completing renovations that preserve its large skylights and available lighting from huge exterior and interior windows. All 150-year old woodwork and original doors have been preserved, as well as open common areas in the middle of the second and third floors. Living spaces have been upgraded to energy efficient exterior windows and AC/heat pump mini-splits in all rooms, and brand new all electric stainless steel appliances. 12 foot high ceilings and original wood floors have been refinished in living areas, and bathrooms have luxury vinyl flooring with walk-in showers. Advanced fire suppression and alarm systems are throughout the structure for resident safety and peace of mind. The two-room suites are usable as live/work studios or 2-bedroom living quarters. Most second rooms have a separate interior entrance from the common areas that can provide a separate business space if desired.
