Imagine waking up to panoramic views spanning Cityplace, Downtown, Uptown, Turtle Creek, Oak Lawn, and West Village. Those stunning views set the stage for every moment in this week’s Highlight Home of the Week, sponsored by Lisa Peters, Senior Loan Officer with First Horizon.
Whether you’re headed off to work or for a day of fun, it’s an easy commute from this sophisticated highrise residence in McKinney Avenue’s LaTour building, where you can step out the front door onto the McKinney Avenue Trolley; walk to shopping, dining, and nightlife; or quickly access major highways like 75 and the Tollway.
LaTour is known for its turn-key, concierge lifestyle, where residents enjoy amenities like a beautiful pool and spa with cabanas, tennis and pickle ball courts, 24/7 concierge service, and more.
The listing at 3030 McKinney Ave #1006 is on the 10th floor and was taken down to the studs in 2022 by the previous owner, so it has an entirely fresh, modern take. It has a lovely entry with sleek, clever storage lining the hall.
The open floor plan consists of two sitting areas with a gas fireplace, and the entire space is lined with banks of glass giving an almost 360-degree view of the city. The windows are equipped with auto shades to keep the glare out.
I can’t imagine a better backdrop for an elegant meal — especially when the lights of the city are out at night! And this home is likely getting both sunrise and sunset views through most of the year. You almost don’t need the statement lighting — but you’ve got that, too.
In the kitchen, you can make your culinary dreams a reality with all the right equipment, space, and storage. Custom cabinetry and quartzite countertops and backsplash with an integrated coffee center, island with microwave drawer, and beverage–wine refrigeration make this kitchen feel like luxury.
Take in some fresh air, enjoy outdoor dining, or maybe morning coffee on your patio in the sky. I especially like the starburst tiles as an added detail here.
What can I say about the primary suite? “It’s huge!” says listing agent Tricia Weiner, with Ebby Halliday. “It has tons of storage, there are built-ins everywhere, and the windows look in three directions. It has a massive closet.” And don’t we just love a massive closet?
This is the kind of enviable high-rise home with walkable Uptown/Downtown living that comes along rarely. “It’s sophisticated, spacious, turnkey, and the views are spectacular,” said Weiner.
Ebby Halliday Realtors agent Tricia Weiner has 3030 McKinney Avenue #1006 listed for $865,000.
