New East Austin, TX Condo, Townhome Community, Gravity ATX sells over $18M in 30 days in pre-construction sales before breaking ground Fall 2020
The Springdale neighborhood’s new market-rate, attractively priced residences appeal to first time buyers, empty nesters and work-home environments just five minutes from Downtown Austin
AUSTIN, Texas and TUCSON, Ariz., Aug. 12, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — In partnership with Diamond Ventures, Austin-based Legacy Communities is set to break ground this Fall on Gravity ATX, an attractively priced, 90 one- and two-bedroom condo, townhome community. Gravity ATX is the only such residence in up-and-coming East Austin and is proving to be the right offering to the market, with 65 percent of its pre-construction residences sold in the first 30 days.
Slated for a Fall 2021 completion, the four-acre master-planned property — just five minutes from downtown Austin (at the intersection of 51st and Springdale Rd) — will feature 10 “live/work” style condos and seven townhomes within the total residential mix (priced from the mid $200s to the high $400s), blending a contemporary urban style with relaxing comfort.
Amenities will include modern, high-end finishes, a spacious dog park and paw spa, Amazon storage lockers, walking trails, covered parking spaces, a swimming pool with tanning ledge, an outdoor fireplace and kitchen to cook al fresco, and an all-resident rooftop deck to relax and enjoy stunning views of Austin’s downtown skyline. Gravity ATX is a less-than-five-minute drive from the renowned Mueller community (a new mixed-use urban village in the heart of Austin), 10 minutes from the University of Texas’s Austin downtown campus and offers easy access via 183A and 130 to Austin’s technology employers and Austin-Bergstrom International Airport.
“After seeing East Austin’s rapid growth of luxury properties, we saw a unique opportunity to develop new market-rate attainable homes for first-time buyers, empty nesters, those looking to set up professional home offices and others tired of wasting money on high Austin rents,” commented Legacy Communities Partner, Philip Jalufka, who’s also president and CEO of Legacy International, an international sales and marketing firm of luxury, master-planned residential, resort communities with a current portfolio of over $1 billion in revenue. “We didn’t let the Covid shutdown or pandemic hinder or stall our sales and marketing efforts to interest home buyers, which has resulted in $18,172,000 in pre-construction gross sales in just 30 days — a remarkable achievement in my view.”
Legacy Communities has solid experience as an innovative real estate multi-service firm in the Austin market with such residential communities as Westside Landing Rough Hollow, The Isabella, Cooper’s Square and The Addie at Westlake. As it continues to expand its portfolio, Legacy has partnered for the first time to build Gravity ATX with Arizona-based Diamond Ventures, a leading real estate development and investment firm with residential, industrial, office, retail and build-to-suit projects in Arizona, Colorado and Texas.
