Avenue One

Avenue One opened in the summer of 2005 to rave reviews. This concrete and steel condominium building, located at 2721 Clay St., was designed to maximize both light and space. Both the private residences and the shared amenities provide an elegant respite from the outside world.

Each of the 116 units feature warm, modern interiors, with an extensive emphasis on the use of granite and wood. Floor to ceiling windows frame spectacular views. The intimate lobby of Avenue One opens into a sleek elevator foyer featuring original works of art. Two high-speed elevators whisk residents to their homes. Avenue One’s many other amenities make entertaining and relaxing easy. Residents can take advantage of the onsite fitness center, complete with free weights, treadmills, and other state-of-the art equipment. A roof top terrace offering sunset views is available exclusively to homeowners. For parties, residents have full use great room, which comes with an equipped catering kitchen and extensive entertainment system. There is also a fully furnished guest suite, available by reservation. Additional  amenities include onsite, secure underground parking, a recycling center, and individual storage units.

This building, developed by Intracorp Real Estate LLC, is located on the southwest corner of the intersection of First Avenue and Clay Street. That puts its right in the middle of Belltown’s many fine restaurants and trendy boutiques. Unlike other Seattle condos, Avenue One residents do not have to walk far to go out for a stroll or night on the town. It is the perfect location for urban dwellers who want to live within walking distance to some of the city’s most hip and stylish establishments.

The demand for Avenue One units has been extremely strong. The initial prices for these condos range from about $250,000 to more than $1 million.
