Throughout,  wonderful, multi-paned hopper windows (hinged at the bottom and tilting inward) provide natural light and airflow.  Hopper windows open inward from the top, providing excellent ventilation while preventing rainfall or debris from entering.  The building is lit with an array of fluorescent lighting and further cooled with ceiling fans. This building also has a small half bath with a utility sink in the main room. A loading dock at the rear provides ease of moving equipment, furnishings, and more. A small shipping/receiving room here has been created with a false wall that could be removed if desired.  This structure is equipped with 220 3-phase electricity, and its HVAC system is also approximately 5 years old. This building can be leased for $1,445/month!

There are 4 parking spaces behind the buildings and 2 additional spaces at the driveway to the left of the structures. A metal container comes with the property for additional storage. The gravel drive to the right of the buildings is partially owned by the neighboring City of Salisbury Fire Department, where a water tower acts like a local landmark.

This 2-building property, whether you purchase the property or lease one or both of the buildings, is totally customizable for your intended use!  Located in an area of Salisbury known as 'Five Points', where Main Street and Fulton Street meet, 1409 South Fulton Street is zoned HB (Highway Business), even though a residential neighborhood abuts the property.

Award-Winning Industrial Loft Living AND Turn-Key Air BnB ~ FOR SALE ~ with Salisbury Real Estate

A walk-in opportunity to LIVE/WORK in a 5000 sq ft dream industrial artists' loft in the center of vibrant downtown Salisbury!

120-B E. Innes Street in the heart of Historic Downtown Salisbury, North Carolina is FOR SALE with Realtor® Greg Rapp with Salisbury Real Estate. 

 

This centrally located condo is an artist-inspired brilliant adaptive reuse of a spacious industrial loft. Formerly the circa 1930s Flowers Bakery building, a pair of artists repurposed the historic bread factory in 2005 into an artist’s dream, 'EastSquare ArtWorks': a luxury spacious home, gallery space, and art studio, with works in varied mediums, including gourd art, painting, kiln-formed glass, and textile art. As the commercial bakery grew, so did the building.  An original bakery began in 1905 at N. Main Street.  As the business grew, the company built the long 2-story additions moving toward Lee Street in the 1930s - 1950s. Many of the original components in the space now are from that latter era.

'EastSquare ArtWorks' historical up-fit of the old bakery factory brought excitement and contemporary art and design to the historic beauty of downtown Salisbury. The first floor of the massive industrial building featured gallery and studio space, while the second floor houses the sophisticated urban loft the artists call home. The project received three awards for historic preservation, restoration, and adaptive reuse from the City of Salisbury and the State of North Carolina.  Historic Salisbury Foundation presented the artists with a Preservation Award in 2007, and the loft was featured in the Foundation's 2008 Annual Salisbury OctoberTour of Historic Homes.

Located in the heart of thriving Historic Downtown Salisbury, this 2nd-story loft condo is an unusually quiet downtown dwelling.  Up the private staircase at the entry and into the entry hall, you'll find a utility closet, laundry room, and coat closet. The tall orange metal lockers are the original lockers from the industrial bakery.  (A matching set is the yoga studio on the ground floor.)

To your left, immediately upon entry but tucked out of sight, the massive primary bedroom suite opens to an eye-popping expanse of private luxury. Painted and exposed brick walls encircle this large, airy room that has space for a king-sized bed, a spacious sitting area, stand-alone bath, a large vanity with dual sinks, walk-in shower, and huge walk-in closet. . . . all streaming with natural daylight from a surround of windows.

As you exit the hall, your next steps will stop you in your tracks as you enter into over 4,000 square feet of open-concept living space!  

Here, a huge swath of original hardwood floors, soaring ceilings, and loads of natural light greet you. In this sprawling open space, the owners created defined 'rooms': a luxurious living room space, an office, a central dining area, and a high-functioning, fully-equipped corner kitchen with a long dining table. Nearby, a porch swing hangs from the industrial rafters at a pair of French doors that open to overlook the historic center city. An industrial dolly houses a flat-screen television. Pops of color - vivid yellow I-beams, cherry-red sprinkler system, spot-lit art, an accent purple wall - delight the eye. The space, despite its industrial roots, is flowing, warm, and inviting, with the original maple floors and subtly handsome track lighting. 

 

Known during its artistic heyday as 'EastSquare ArtWorks', and more recently as the 'Artist Loft Air BnB' ~ 120 B E. Innes Street has been a working 5-star Air BnB since 2018 and is 'bed-and-breakfast' ready, offered fully-furnished and beautifully decorated with art, much of it original! There are *4-bedrooms, ready to go with sheets, quilts, and pillows, and bathrooms stocked with towels and amenities.  A library is stocked with books.  The kitchen is cook-ready. The sprawling space is an exquisitely decorated, flexible open-floor loft space. The furnishings, artwork, and library all convey!

Towards the back of this 2nd story paradise, a wide wooden ramp original to the building takes you to the artist's studio (formerly a 'yeast room' for the bakery) ~ a breathtaking open space with a skyrocketing ceiling, and a working overhead, garage-style door that opens to a Juliette balcony overlooking the rear alley. The walls here are the original vanilla-colored 1950s glazed block; underfoot, the glazed red brick floor is also original to the historic building.  The space offers an office nook,  art-wash sinks, plenty of storage and work surfaces, and a full bath (currently utilized as the guest bath for Air BnB guests).  

The pièce de résistance is the surrounding mezzanine level overlooking the art studio. The Air BnB's 4th bedroom is at the top of the staircase, with a catwalk leading to a small sitting area.  Again, natural light floods the area via a brigade of windows that overlooks the rooftop. 

Included in this amazing condo's space is a long 1000 sq ft unfinished room.  The current owners utilized the space as storage with plans to create gallery space, but for YOU, the future potential is limitless: remodel into an apartment, office, studio, or storage.

The condo additionally offers a ground-floor 500 sq ft garage that opens to the East Square municipal parking lot. The current owners used the garage as a workshop and gallery space.  The garage is wired for both 120V and 220V and features more of the handsome red brick flooring found in the art studio. There is access to a non-passenger freight elevator via a shared common space with the adjacent building (also part of the original Flowers Bakery site).  The raised loading dock at the building's exterior is at the freight elevator.

A rear alley accessed via N. Lee Street or E. Council Street provides additional parking and space for an urban garden or entertaining.  

This amazing opportunity to step right into a once-in-a-lifetime loft-living, business-owning opportunity is located in the HEART of Salisbury's thriving downtown, with unique shopping, restaurants, galleries, public library, theatre, and a popular award-winning microbrewery. A beautiful central park, the Bell Tower Green, is just two blocks away.  Many neighboring historic buildings also include residential components, creating a downtown neighborhood vibe. Need to get on the road? 120 E. Innes Street is two convenient blocks to Salisbury's landmark Amtrak Train Depot and within an hour's drive to either Charlotte or Greensboro airports.

Downtown Salisbury is one of ten historic districts listed with the National Register of Historic Places.  City of Salisbury Historic District Design Standards and the C.O.A. (Certificate of Appropriateness) process apply for exterior changes to the Flowers Bakery building.  Historic Preservation Grants may be available for exterior improvements.  This building is zoned DMX (Downtown Mixed Use), so it's up to YOU whether you choose to make this a residence, an event center, a bed-&-breakfast . . . the choices are yours.

Turn-key opportunities like this one in the heart of a vibrant downtown community don't come along every day!  To see this quality space in person, give Greg Rapp / Salisbury Real Estate a call:  704.213.6846.  Live your best life at 120 East Innes Street!
