About This Home

Originally constructed in 1895 as a bakery, “Old Manchester Lofts” is filled with character including massive archways, exposed brick walls, and a large atrium at the center of the building. Just inside the main entrance you’ll enjoy a welcoming common area with local artwork and lots of seating. It’s zero-entry from the parking lot to your front door—old or young, it’s a nice perk! Inside, tall ceilings, handsome wood beams, and rich exposed brick create a warm, one-of-a-kind backdrop. The open floor plan provides flexibility for both entertaining and everyday living. The bedroom sits at the front with a spacious closet, while the living area anchors the rear of the unit, with a wonderful flow into the kitchen. The kitchen blends function and design with custom-painted cabinetry, on-trend hardware, granite counters, a new tile backsplash, and stainless steel appliances. Pendant lighting over the island completes the look and makes it an inviting gathering spot. The living room feels like it belongs in a magazine—bright, open, and beautifully styled. The updated full bath features a marble-topped vanity, modern lighting, and quality hardware for a fresh, elevated touch. Before you leave, be sure to take the elevator to the building’s rooftop deck, where sweeping city views in every direction remind you why living in Old Manchester is so special. It’s a long list of attractions and restaurants that are all within walking distance from your new home! **Assigned parking for unit is #63 | New HVAC 2024**

After graduating from college in northwest Ohio in 2005, my wife and I moved to North Carolina. We lived there for six years while I taught various levels of English and Language Arts. We had a comfortable life in N.C., but we grew eager to shake things up. Her career brought us to Richmond in 2011 where I continued teaching. The new city, new jobs, and new friends all contributed to our love of Richmond. It was during these first few years in Richmond when I decided to follow my heart and to
