The Windrose Tower at Legacy West in Plano has taken the luxury high-rise concept to an entirely new level. Condo living has captured a broad demographic in Dallas over the past few years, and I’m not surprised. Who wouldn’t want spectacular views, walkability, and every amenity imaginable?
I’ve always longed to be Eloise at the Plaza, so the idea of living in luxury with a 24/7 personal assistant (because, let’s face it, that’s what a concierge truly is) has been a childhood fantasy of mine. Apparently, many folks have that same fantasy because luxury condos are selling at quite a pace. Maybe that’s because we have so many people moving here, or perhaps people are just over the maintenance issue that single-family homes require.
Or, as Compass Real Estate listing agent Suzanne Warner said, “People are right-sizing their lives. They are buying a vacation home and moving into a luxury high rise for the lock-and-leave luxury lifestyle.”
I think Warner is spot on. We’re all looking to get it right for work and family, spend less time commuting, and more time enjoying life, especially after 2020. Last year was a wake-up call and made us all think about what’s truly important.
Where we live and what we surround ourselves with is critical to our emotional well-being. High-rise living is an incredibly healthy option because your stress level takes a nosedive the moment you sign the contract!
If you’re ready to de-stress, this jaw-dropper on the 22nd floor of Windrose Tower just hit the market. We all know the higher up you go, the better the views, and from this unit, you overlook all of the dining, shopping, and entertainment of Legacy West.
“You feel like you get those urban pleasures of the city, but you’re in a calm area,” Warner said.
If you haven’t been to Legacy West in a while, you are in for a surprise. We’ve seen a flood of corporate relocations to the area over the past few years. There are now some of the finest retail establishments in the country to support that influx, from the largest food hall in North Texas to incoming Gucci and Louis Vuitton shops. So, yes, you overlook all that and more from this condo. You are also only seven minutes from The Star, offseason Home of the Dallas Cowboys!
This gorgeous 5,392-square-foot luxury high-rise condo has four bedrooms, four bathrooms, a powder bath, and a home office. If you are moving with children — and yes, high-rise living is great for kids (think of the entertainment at your fingertips) — you’re in the Frisco Independent School District. It doesn’t get better than that.
The George Bass Stage & Design team worked their magic, so we can all see how this luxury high-rise condo lives. Staging takes the guesswork out of where your sofa is going to go, and in properties of this size, it can be daunting to figure out furniture placement. I can’t make any guarantees, but you just may be able to work a deal on all that gorgeous furniture and have a truly is live-in ready home at your fingertips! It’s certainly worth asking because how do you improve on perfection?
It’s the amenity-driven lifestyle that really resonates with luxury high-rise buyers. I could do an entire post on what Windrose Tower offers, but I’ll simply call out the Aqua Lounge, golf simulator, and on-call masseuse because that did it for me!
As Warner says, “Windrose Tower is not simply a property, it’s an experience.”
