Downtown Lynchburg, Vault Loft, 1,500 sq. ft., Va

This downtown Lynchburg warehouse used to be the Craddock Terry’s main office. This loft has the original vault in it (locked for your safety)! We kept the lofts as open as possible to maintain the integrity of the building, so there is a bedroom area but it doesn’t have wall/a door. There is a courtyard which this unit opens up to (but is not yet accessible to guests as it’s not quite ready yet!). No-smoking unit / building #mainofficelofts #vaultloft
