About this property

Modern meets Historic, Natural Lighting + High Ceilings, Near Metro

High ceilings, exposed brick walls, & beautiful Brazilian cherry wood floors make this luxury loft a place you won’t easily forget. The perfect cross between modern & historic, with updated appliances and historic features. Conveniently located near the metro station and just a short ride to downtown St. Louis, Scott Air Force Base, and Southwestern Community College (SWIC), and is walking distance to the St. Clair County Courthouse. You'll fall in love with this amazing loft and the location!

The space
This spacious, luxury loft is part of the historic Reichert building that was built in 1879 by the Reichert Family. You will love the fine details of this historic loft, including the original, burled wood doors and impressive woodworking details throughout the second floor. The 2400 square foot second floor was once used as a mercantile and a boarding house. During Prohibition, the 2400 square foot third floor was converted to a speakeasy. The building was completely renovated while keeping the original trim, doors and windows.
In the commercial space below, we have a small venue space/wine/bourbon bar that has live music on Thursday through Saturday. The music is usually from 7-11pm. Most guests come down and enjoy.

Location
Located in downtown Belleville, and walking distance to shops and restaurants and the court house. Conveniently located near the metro station and just a short ride to downtown St. Louis, Scott Air Force Base, and Southwestern Community College (SWIC). Only a few blocks away from St. Clair County Courthouse.

Guests have internet access throughout both floors. 42” in living room on the second floor. 42” on third floor. Both TVs have Cable access.

Upstairs Bar & Rec Area
This property has plenty of space for you to spread out. The third floor is complete with rec area, bar, and full kitchen. Enjoy a drink! Relax with a game of ping pong.

Kitchen
This gourmet kitchen is complete with granite counters and a built-in breakfast bar. Guests always comment on the impressive, modern fridge and freezer.

Accessibility & Security
There are 4 stairs outside the unit and roughly 28 stairs going up to the unit itself. From the second floor to the third floor also has stairway. The 2nd and 3rd floors do not have an elevator so you must be able to climb the staircase and carry luggage. This is a historic building, so the stairs are steep.
