I have written before about the new W Residence condos in Downtown Austin. Yesterday, The W hosted a select group of 80 Austin Realtors to tour the property and enjoy a reception by the resident pool. I really like this property! The finish out is impeccable and the views are spectacular. 10' ceilings, wide plank hardwood floors, Miele appliances, Bulthaup cabinetry, marble counters and baths. The residents have their own pool separate from the hotel, and receive a 20% discount on food and drinks from the hotel restaurant, bars and the W Away Spa. Concierge services are at each resident's disposal as well.

Service at W Austin residences is a priority as is making sure upscale living is enjoyed by all who purchase here. The petite one bedroom is a great pied-a-terre and starts in the upper $300's. HOA fees are 55 cents per square foot--lower than other luxury buildings but much higher than other new buildings that offer slightly less service and amenities.

According to the sales director at W, 65% of the residences are under contract and/or sold. That leaves 50 or 60 units still available in the 37 story building with prices up to a few million dollars. One of the upper level 3 bedrooms just went under contract for over $2 million.

W is a great addition to Downtown Austin living. I think I prefer the W to the Four Seasons or Austonian because the design is edgier and the building has a more energetic vibe, although I know every person must decide for themselves what environment suits them best.

Contact me any time for an appointment to see the W or any other Downtown Austin luxury condominium.
