Deftly modern downtown condo with views for miles reduced to $745K

After Atlanta’s condo market went Chernobyl a decade ago, a selection of top-flight condos at The Residences at W Atlanta-Downtown were offered for as little as $199,000, or $299,000 for legit two-bedroom flats. (Time machine, please).

But by all indications, this wasn’t one of them.

It’s a high-floor end-unit (No. 2202) that covers the full north face of the building. That translates to 180-degree views from the kitchen to a large, covered terrace and around to the master bedroom.

Listed this week at $745,000 by Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Georgia Properties, the two-bedroom is billed as a rare opportunity to live among such luxury. Amenities include a valet, concierge services, notable onsite eats, a spa, dry-cleaners, room service, and even that helipad on the roof.

Inside, the home blends customizations with original components that still look slick, including Gaggenau commercial appliances, Dornbracht fixtures, Alno kitchen cabinetry, power window shades, built-in sound, and modish light fixtures.

Yet it hasn’t exactly flown off the market.

Records indicate the condo has been listed for as much as $795,000 in early 2019. Maybe the monthly $1,152 HOA commitment is a tough pill to swallow, though it does entail the aforementioned perks. Well, probably not room service.

This glassy downtown tower, finished in 2008, has been a preferred home of Atlanta athletes over the years. The building’s address chalks an 81 “Very Walkable” WalkScore.

Property records put this home’s square footage at 1,823 and show that it last traded for $659,000 in 2014.
