Photo gallery for 124 Lofts #1 - Downtown Dundee - Walk to Dining

King bed, original brick, and warm industrial sconces. This is what a well-designed downtown loft actually feels like.
The open layout puts everything within reach — king bed, workspace, and flat-screen TV, all wrapped in exposed brick and warm hardwood.
Two windows, a full dresser, and a wall-mounted TV - the bedroom has everything you need and nothing you don't.
Industrial pipe sconce, tufted headboard, original brick. The details are what make it.
Granite counters, a Keurig, microwave, and mini fridge — everything you need to start the morning without leaving the loft.

About this property

124 Lofts #1 - Downtown Dundee - Walk to Dining

Summary:

124 Lofts is a boutique collection of modern, design-forward lofts set within a beautifully restored historic building in downtown West Dundee.



This listing is for Loft #1, a one-bedroom space featuring exposed brick, timber ceilings, and clean finishes that feel both character-driven and easy to enjoy.



Each loft includes a king bed, private bath, kitchenette, fast Wi-Fi, and a 60" smart TV, just steps from restaurants, shops, and the Fox River.



The Space:

Originally built in 1893, the building has housed a department store, men’s clothing store, and photography studio over the years. Fully restored in 2018, it now features a coffee and donut shop on the first floor with a collection of boutique loft accommodations above.



124 Lofts offers four private, thoughtfully designed spaces that blend historic character with modern comfort. Exposed brick, timber beams, and natural light create a warm, textured environment, paired with clean finishes and an open, easy layout.



Each loft features a king bed, private bathroom, and a kitchenette equipped with a microwave, sink, Keurig coffee maker, and under-counter refrigerator. Please note that there is no oven or stovetop.



The lofts are well suited for couples, business travelers, and guests visiting for weddings or group events. Guests attending events at nearby venues like The BRIX on the Fox often reserve multiple lofts for a shared, walkable experience.



Traveling with a group? We also offer nearby accommodations, including Sinclair Suites and Kildahl House, all within walking distance, allowing guests to stay close while enjoying their own private space.



Guest Access:

Guests have full private access to their individual loft, with secure, contactless entry for a smooth and seamless arrival. The building entrance is located directly on Main Street, and detailed check-in instructions will be provided prior to your stay.



Free parking is available in nearby municipal lots just steps away.



Please note that all lofts are located on the second floor and require one full flight of stairs from street level. There is no elevator due to the historic nature of the building.



The Neighborhood:

124 Lofts is located in the heart of historic downtown West Dundee - a walkable stretch along the Fox River that is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.



You’re just steps from local restaurants, coffee shops, breweries, and live music, including Emmett’s Brewing Co. and RocHaus, as well as the scenic riverwalk, bike trails, and outdoor spaces throughout the Fox River Valley. Guests can also rent bikes nearby or bring kayaks and canoes to enjoy the river.



Downtown Dundee has an easy, welcoming energy - active without feeling crowded and full of local character. It’s the kind of place where everything is close, and the experience feels natural and unhurried.



We’re also a short drive from The BRIX on the Fox, making 124 Lofts a popular choice for wedding guests. Traveling with a group? Explore our nearby properties, including Sinclair Suites and Kildahl House, all within walking distance, allowing guests to stay close while enjoying their own private spaces.



Getting Around:

Downtown Dundee is best experienced on foot, with restaurants, coffee shops, and riverfront access just steps from your door.



For trips beyond downtown, 124 Lofts offers convenient access to the surrounding area. Interstate 90 is just a few minutes away, and the nearest Metra station is within a short drive, providing easy access to Chicago. Rideshare services are readily available.



Chicago O’Hare International Airport is approximately 30 minutes away.

Clean and Comfortable

The location was great! Walking distance from many restaurants and music venues. The room was clean and comfortable. The only negative thing I really could say was the noise from the street in the early morning, but that had already been mentioned prior to my stay and they did provide ear plugs. Overall, I enjoyed my stay and would go back again.

Clean, quiet and cozy…just right for a short get away. The town of Dundee is relaxed with plenty of restaurants. My in the clean, well kept loft was perfect! Suzanne is a perfect host. She communicates completely in a timely manner. I hope I have the opportunity to stay again!

Birthday getaway

The space was clean and beautiful, just as seen in pictures! In a great area with restaurants and things to do for adults. Perfect size for me and my husband. My only complaint would be the noise from the cars on the street and the other people renting the other rooms were pretty loud and slamming doors at midnight when we were trying to sleep. The bed and pillows were so comfortable! They provided ear plugs which I’m glad and a parking pass to park right by the loft. Overall was a great experience and would stay again.

Wish It Could Last Longer

From the moment we stepped into the unit we were happy with it. A nice "welcome" message written on a hallway mirror. A well done kitchenette stocked with some welcome snacks like micro popcorn, chocolates and water bottles. A full ice cube tray was even waiting in the freezer. The only negative would be the road noise during the night. But we were warned about old buildings and thin walls. Plus, there were two pairs or ear plugs on the counter. The owner obviously accounted for that and it was a nice touch. We were very pleased with our stay and wouldn't change a thing!

About the host

Hosted by Suzanne Burns

Host profile image
Hi, we’re Suzanne & Andy -- best friends, parents and small business owners. We have a keen appreciation for the importance of small downtowns and the role they play in defining a sense of place. That’s why we located our business, Emmett’s Brewing Co., in downtown West Dundee and it’s also why we’ve branched out over the years and opened additional locations in other small historic downtowns nearby. We view Airbnb hosting as a logical extension of our creativity and passion for hospitality. We live nearby and enjoy small town living. When we’re not busy running our businesses we enjoy working on our historic home, traveling, great food, drink and companionship.

Why they chose this property

The building was built in 1893 and over the years has housed a department store, men’s clothing store and photography studio. In 2018 the property was completely rehabbed and now offers a charming coffee and donut shop on the first floor and boutique hotel on the second floor. Free parking is offered in nearby municipal parking lots. 124 LOFTS offers the freedom and convenience of self-check-in with key-less entry. Please note that due to the age and historic nature of the property there is no elevator and access requires walking up a flight of stairs. 124 LOFTS is perfect for couples, solo adventurers and business travelers
