Metropolis Lofts and Flats – Elegance and Style

Condo living is here to stay in Las Vegas. The city has millions of visitors every year and almost 6000 new people move here every month, but surprisingly, high-rise structures are just coming into their own. Many projects have been launched with great hype though some have remained just plans. The initial excitement and the sharp rise in real estate prices in the valley tempted a lot of real estate investors. Many big name developments were sold out within weeks and as they now near completion, all you have are second sales. These too are worth the money, the way things seem to be going in Las Vegas property markets. Metropolis comes to mind in this respect.

Completely sold out, Metropolis is only a few weeks away from completion, and those who missed the opportunity to purchase a flat or loft earlier can now seriously consider buying a brand new resale with spectacular golf and Strip views. Metropolis Lofts and Flats offer a unique combination of Las Vegas City living with peace and tranquility. Just across the strip, overlooking the Wynn Golf Course, Metropolis is just around the corner from the glitz and excitement of Las Vegas, yet away from it all. With fantastic views of the mountains by day and breathtaking views of the city and golf course, this is a high rise that promises to be a good buy. The 19 floor Metropolis is almost complete and there are "new" resales available starting in the $800s.

A lovely art deco style building, with large pool and lush courtyard, it can transport you to another world in a minute. The exterior design is reminiscent of turn-of-the-century art deco structures of the Big Apple, with horizontal bands running across the structure, topped with stainless steel and neon lights. Efficient concierge sevice and an elegant art deco private lobby with a 2-story ceiling lobby set the tone. There are 14 guest-parking spaces plus street parking and access to the private parking garage is through controlled access gates. Apparently each homeowner will receive two transmitters for this. The complex offers spare storage rooms for purchase.

Obviously designed with party animals in mind, in addition to the built in wine cellars in each unit there is a private wine cellar and a completely equipped caterer's kitchen that residents can use for private functions. The condo also has its own a first class Fitness Center with state-of-the-art equipment. The lofts have exciting possibilities with their near twenty foot height of ceilings while the flats too have a comfortable eleven feet ceiling height. The builders have offered a choice of flooring material of either wood, tile, or carpet which can vary from unit to unit. Granite topped kitchens, well equipped bathrooms, Metropolis has it all. The surprising part is that there are very low maintenance charges making ita very viable proposition as a second homeor even just as an investment which will certainly appreciate sharply with time.
