(Savannah, GA)- It's exclusive living in every sense of the word. To enter the
Studio Homes of Ellis Square, one must have access to the secured building.
Once inside, there is an elevator just for residents and guests of the 28 brand new, fully-furnished and decorated units.
"The designers and the architects wanted to maximize the efficiency of the units," said Stevie Edwards, Sales Manager for the property.
The Studio Homes of Ellis Square is connected to the
Avia Hotel. The two not only share similar views of the city, but amenities, too.
"Living here is like living in a 150-room house," said Edwards. "We have a swimming pool that's heated with the beautiful cabanas and the fire pit," she continued. Whoever buys one of these condominiums will have access to the hotel's fitness center as well.
The one and two-bedroom units are "turnkey," meaning the property is ready for someone to move into it. Not just "ready" in that the walls are painted and the floors are clean. The future occupants of these condos only need their clothing and their toiletries.
"Everything is provided for your comfort and efficiency," said Edwards.
All appliances including the smaller ones like the coffee makers have already been purchased for the units. "Inviting. Very inviting," smiled Edwards.
The studio homes are not only brimming with modern luxuries, but so are the features outside. A rooftop patio with a fire pit and comfortable seating offers stunning views of the city. There is a 7th story room with ceiling to floor windows. Inside that space is a wet bar, more seating, and space to host a party.
Future property owners at The Studio Homes of Ellis Square will have modern conveniences like trash pickup at
receptacles located on each floor and an assigned space or two in a secured, underground parking garage.
Owners will have to pay a homeowners' association fee of approximately $500/month. The fee pays for the condo owners' access to the Avia Hotel's pool, patio, and fitness center, as well as trash collection, a private storage room for items like golf clubs and bicycles, and a coveted parking space in downtown Savannah.
The feel of old Savannah emerges in the brick façade included in each unit. Oversized windows make the indoor areas feel more spacious and dark heart pine flooring compliments a neutral, yet interesting color palette.
The bathrooms offer something unique too!
"It's a composite of quartz and concrete, but you have the oyster shells inside the composite concrete," explained Edwards about the bathroom countertops. "People love it!"
For the person without an eye for design or the buyer who wants a stress-less getaway home, these gems are waiting to be discovered in downtown Savannah.
Prices for the units range from $295k to $595k.
