I guess Wiktionary might be mistaken, but it says the not-really-so-modern meaning of ‘loft’ is shared among Germanic languages: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/loft

Nope, seems I am in the wrong here. Looks like Danish for example has both "Luft" (air) and "Loft" (the room), which come from the same word.
