*Pictures are samples of various units throughout the complex and may not be specifically the subject unit. Unit specific photos will be uploaded Thursday night/Friday morning* Step into a piece of Richmond’s history with Hook & Ladder Lofts — a beautifully reimagined 2-bedroom, 1-bath flat offering 947 square feet of stylish, one-level living in the heart of Scott’s Addition. Originally the building was home to Baker Equipment, known for building commercial vehicles and most importantly fire engines in the early 1900s. This historic building has been thoughtfully restored to preserve its industrial soul while delivering the modern finishes and systems today's homeowners expect. Exposed wood beams, soaring ceilings, and incredible natural light from oversized skylights set the tone for this one-of-a-kind space. And yes — the original hook once used by Baker Equipment still hangs proudly in the building, a tribute to its legacy. Inside Unit 3, you’ll find a spacious, open-concept layout with two well-appointed bedrooms, a sleek, updated kitchen and bath, and beautiful touches throughout. Major upgrades include new electrical service, energy-efficient lighting, and all-new interior finishes. The exterior has seen a full transformation too — from a brand-new roof and reglazed windows to freshly pointed brickwork and upgraded exterior lighting. Don’t miss your chance to own a piece of Richmond’s industrial past, redefined for modern living. Schedule your private showing today and experience the perfect blend of historic charm and contemporary convenience.
