600 E Market St: $6,000/mo (Alteza)
1. Alteza
Located smack-dab in the middle of Downtown San Antonio (above the Grand Hyatt on E Market St, to be exact), Alteza offers condos that encapsulate the classic “urban luxury condo” lifestyle. Life at the Alteza feels like a luxury hotel vacation every day. From the units themselves (featuring city views and beautiful layouts) to the community amenities (a rooftop pool, concierge service, top-of-the-line fitness center, etc.), Alteza condos are coveted units in the downtown area.
2. St Benedict’s Lofts
Another take on downtown living, St Benedict’s Lofts are located in the heart of Southtown. Brimming with one-of-a-kind character, these condos are the perfect combination of luxury and unique personality. St Benedict’s offers 66 luxury living spaces (only about 10 years old). Architect David Sprinkle explained, “The goal was to create a modern oasis in the heart of the historic King William neighborhood.” The design elements blend mid-century modern with minimalism. Units are characterized by large windows, open floor plans, and exposed brick. Amenities include a 24-hour fitness center, lounging and pool area, convenient parking, greenery, and over three acres of communal courtyard space.
230 Dwyer Ave: $690,000 (La Cascada)
3. La Cascada
Blending old San Antonio charm with urban amenities, La Cascada is yet another beautiful example of downtown luxury living. This twelve-story high rise is located on Dwyer Ave, just southwest of the River Walk and all its excitement. Due to its prime location, the views alone are stunning enough to convince any buyer! Amenities include a rooftop pool, fitness center, spa, jogging trails, gated parking, and excellent staff. All 46 condo owners are privy to a 24-hour lobby staff and security team. La Cascada condos include balconies, custom tile and flooring, and more.
4. The Broadway
For residents who want to be close to the downtown experience without being directly in the middle of it, The Broadway holds great appeal! Just north of downtown, The Broadway condos lay claim to uptown San Antonio, the cusp of the burgeoning Cultural Corridor(not to mention The Pearl). The Broadway offers 21 floors of 12 luxury floor plans that vary in both style and price. According to their website, The Broadway condos seek to display “the perfect blend of style and practicality, creating a distinctive environment of elegance and ease.” Residents have full access to a resort-style pool, fitness room, yoga & pilates studio, concierge service, and valet parking.
17902 La Cantera Parkway: $359,900 (The Ricchi)
5. The Ricchi
Are you looking for an urban luxury experience without the traffic and noise of downtown living? You might consider looking into The Ricchi! Located on the northwest side of the city near the intersection of I-10 and Loop 1604, The Ricchi is the first condo development in this desirable section of the city (near La Cantera, Six Flags, The Rim, etc.). Because it’s away from the epicenter of the city, The Ricchi is able to offer a more tranquil luxury experience. The condos offer beautiful units with top-of-the-line appliances and features (as well as unique community features like a pool, jacuzzi, and exotic gardens).
6. The Vidorra
A beautiful 20-story tower, The Vidorra lies just to the east of the hustle and bustle of downtown. Less than a mile away from all that downtown San Antonio has to offer, these luxury condominiums are the perfect location for anyone looking to stay close enough to the action but far enough away from the tourists. Available units range from 1-3 bedrooms up to about 2,500 square feet. Many units feature panoramic views of the city skyline. Amenities include a highly acclaimed 24-hour concierge, high-quality fitness center, saltwater pool, putting green and driving range, coffee bar, reserved parking, 24-hour security, and even a private rooftop garden! Units include private balconies, large windows, and everything from natural hardwood floors to stainless steel appliances.
1401 Flores St: $450,000 (Steel House Condos)
7. Steel House Condos
Located in a re-imagined turn-of-the-century building in San Antonio’s most beloved arts district (South town, naturally), the Steel House Condos blend “historic spaces with modern living.” Head down the hallways (bearing a signature art collection) and step into another world: exposed original concrete columns, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, 14' ceilings, concrete floors, and lovely outdoor sitting areas (see above). The creativity and imagination put into Steel House Lofts has led to numerous awards: the Best Adaptive Use – Residential Award (by San Antonio’s Downtown Alliance in 2013), the Historic Preservation Award (by the San Antonio Conservation Society in 2014), and The Excellence in Construction Award (by the South Texas Chapter of the Associated Builders & Contractors in 2013). Amenities include a twenty-four hour, gorgeous pool, smart home features, and two covered parking spaces.
