Just when you think you’ve seen every cool luxury high rise in Dallas, along comes something extra special, like this AMLI Fountain Place penthouse!
Two photos totally sold me. The first one, above, because, COME ON! That view and those uber-cool slanted windows of the ENTIRE downtown area? To paraphrase Louis Armstrong, “’S wonderful! ’S marvelous! ’S awful nice! ’S paradise! ’S what I love to see!”
Y’all know we see the crème de la creme here at Candysdirt.com, so we admittedly become a bit jaded. But that first photo and the one of the pool made me choke on my coffee. This is what people expect from a Dallas luxury high rise and AMLI Fountain Place delivers.
After the distraction of enormous estates changing hands at lightning speed last year, I’ve turned my attention to high-rise luxury properties because they are an exceedingly hot market right now. Almost every luxury Realtor has told me buyers are selling the big house and investing in a luxurious second home outside Texas, but moving into a luxury high rise in the Metroplex.
The reasons are evident. A lock-and-leave lifestyle is coveted by most and essential to anyone with multiple properties. We want the amenities of a luxury hotel but personalized. That lifestyle means high-rise luxury condominiums. Rentals in this league are few and far between, so it’s very exciting to have an entire tower of luxury condos for rent in the city center.
AMLI Fountain Place is quite the story. Heather Hunter laid it out beautifully last March. Here’s a snippet, but you should definitely read her entire story for the complete picture.
Some 30 years after I.M. Pei’s iconic tower graced the Dallas skyline, we’re finally seeing the companion building architect Henry N. Cobb always intended.
Well, almost as he intended.
Cobb’s original design called for two identical towers, rotated at 90-degrees from one another. But instead of an exact copy of the original tower, the new addition is its own design, one that pays homage to its predecessor, with some notable differences.
Primarily, at 45 stories, the blunt-topped new tower comes up shy of Fountain Place’s 60. Echoing the distinct, late-modernist lines, it complements rather than copies Cobb’s original design. Similar, but managing somehow not to be derivative. So while not exactly the twin Cobb envisioned, the new high rise is constructed with the same green glass exterior, visually uniting them as siblings. Fraternal twins, perhaps.
And what a lovely fraternal twin! Of course, you don’t want to be in just any luxury high-rise rental. You want the penthouse. This one just hit the market and has never before been available. At 3,383 square feet with three bedrooms and three bathrooms, this 43rd-floor penthouse has plenty of room for a family. If you have a talented kiddo headed to Booker T. Washington High School for the Performing and Visual Arts, they can walk!
You are in the heart of Dallas at Amli Fountain Place with an off-the-charts walkability score. Imagine having the Katy Trail, Klyde Warren Park, and the Dallas Museum of Art at your fingertips.
There are amenities galore, including the essential GolfZon simulator, an electric car charging station, an open-air yoga deck, and a sky lounge on the 45th floor with panoramic views of Dallas.
This is quite simply a rare opportunity to lease a spectacular penthouse.
