Take sweeping views of Houston and combine them with thoughtful design elements and luxe living, and the result is the Residences at The Allen.
Located at the southeast corner of Allen Parkway and Gillette Street, The Residences at The Allen anchor a six-acre mixed-use development by DC Partners. The exclusive homes are above the chic Thompson Hotel, and offer luxury living, breathtaking views, thoughtful design, and unparalleled amenities.
The space is rapidly approaching closeout, with only two penthouses left on the market. Ranging in size from 3,500 to 7,200 square feet, these shell-spaces are listed in the upper $3 million range, giving buyers their final opportunities to own a piece of Houston’s most prestigious address.
Imagine a home that blends every modern amenity with the luxe living of the finest hotel. That is what owners at The Residences at The Allen enjoy. There’s a private Fendi lobby with a 24-hour concierge and valet. The Thompson Hotel’s one-acre pool deck, with cabanas and a private resident changing room, is a relaxing retreat. The exclusive owners’ lounge and card room provide elegant spaces to connect and unwind.
Residents can also order meals from the Thompson Hotel’s room service menu, and have access to housekeeping and the hotel’s state-of-the-art spa, which offers rejuvenating treatments. There’s also the fully equipped fitness club, onsite restaurants, and a helistop.
“These spaces represent the highest standard of luxury living, showcasing the unparalleled lifestyle offered at The Allen,” said Samuel Katz, director of sales for the Residences at The Allen. “I’m truly excited to see these residences come to life once the design and build are complete — and I can only hope I get an invite to the housewarming party."
Two penthouses, totaling 11,000 square feet, previously listed for $7.25 million and $9 million respectively, are now off the market. In addition to the two penthouses remaining, there are also a limited number of two- and three-bedroom residences available, with prices starting at $1.9 million.
