Why they chose this property

We historically restored three buildings in Historic Downtown Bristol. Its so cool to stay in these lofts with the exposed brick walls, the original wood beam ceilings, and the location Downtown is ideal. You are close to so many music venues, performance theaters, and the Birthplace of Country Music Museum.

Our loft is located on the second floor. Only 26 steps up to the Urban Living Loft.

During warmer weather months, there several live music events, so there is a potential for noise. However, there is a city ordinance that all music must end at 11pm.

This building is over 100 years old and we have beautifully restored it. You will find lots of charm with a modern flair! We have very high cleaning standards, but you may find the naturally occurring brick dust occasionally. In the loft you will find exposed ceiling beams and lots of character throughout.

We have several fitness centers nearby that offer daily rates.
-Anytime Fitness
-YMCA & YWCA
-CrossFit 423 located across the street
-Breathe Yoga Studio adjacent to our parking lot
-Professional Billiards hall across the street.
-Grocery store located less than a mile away
-hair salons & barber shops
-4 craft breweries downtown
-many local restaurants in walking distance

We have a 3 night minimum for race weeks and 2 nights for Rhythm & Roots music festival. We use VRBO Smart Pricing and rates increase during peak times such as Rhythm & Roots Reunion and the 2 NASCAR race events throughout the year.

What makes this property unique

The location makes this property so appealing. We are located on State Street which is the dividing line between Bristol, VA & Bristol, TN. There are lot of great local restaurants, craft breweries, coffee shops, retail stores, bakery, ice cream & candy shop, and a Fudgery. These are all in walking distance. Just park your car in our reserved parking lot and walk all over Downtown.
