Luxury + Modern Condos with Terraces
When it comes to luxury and modern condos for sale, one of the key amenities that many buyers look for is a terrace. Private outdoor spaces allow a welcome respite, a place to relax and unwind, and enjoy coffee or a nighttime beverage. It’s also the opportunity to dine al fresco on warm nights.
A terrace can be a catch-all term, referring either to a balcony on the side of a building or a larger space, either covered or not. Other outdoor retreats at a luxury condo can include a patio at ground level or a rooftop deck, the latter commonly associated with penthouses. For the sake of this page, we’re going to go with the broadest definition, that being any outdoor space that comes with the condo and is not common property to anyone else in the building.
Here is the Luxury and Modern Condos with Terraces Collection
An Extension of Private Space
By the broadest definition, a luxury and/or modern condo is a residence that can be a cut above others, either by price point, style, or what it has to offer. That can include things such as gourmet kitchens with stone counters and stainless steel appliances, updated bathrooms, and glistening hardwood floors. You can also up the ante with big ticket items such as private elevators, or that ultimate coastline perk, a view of the water. A private terrace is another real bonus, offering the luxury of extending personal living space from within four walls to the outside world.
Luxury and modern condos for sale with terraces aren’t uncommon in the Washington Metro region. However, partnering an outdoor space with other elements that might be on your wish list will lower the available inventory. Turnberry Tower in Arlington’s Rosslyn neighborhood is a good example of true luxury, open space layouts, and terraces all coming together nicely. East and north facing units will also often boast views of the nearby Potomac River. In addition, many Turnberry apartments have direct access elevators.
The venerable Watergate in Washington’s Foggy Bottom is a great example of modern architectural design, pampered luxury, and extended balconies, many with water views. City Center in DC is a high end mixed-use development in the heart of Mount Vernon Triangle. Many of the condos have balconies and some have delightful sky terraces with landscaping. The community also boasts numerous upscale shops, restaurants, as well as a 1.5-acre park. The Ritz-Carlton West End provides full-service hotel-style amenities and spacious floorplans. Many but not all units come with generously sized terraces.
The handful of popular buildings mentioned above represent just a small percentage of luxury and modern condos with terraces in the DC area.
