Giorgetti construction to begin soon
In the heart of one of Houston’s most soughtafter neighborhoods, luxury condos are changing the game by offering a completely unique architectural and design experience.
Sudhoff Companies features its Giorgetti Houston, located in the Upper Kirby District.
Construction on Giorgetti is scheduled to begin soon.
From the ground up, buyers will find only highquality finishes in each of the 32 units, starting with the Listone Giordano hardwood flooring, made of the finest Italian wood from the forests of Burgundy. These floors are manufactured in the most environmentally friendly and sustainable way. Every plank is individually designed to be beautiful and functional, and capable of withstanding a wide range of temperatures and humidity.
Each kitchen features Italian quartz countertops, under lighting, Giorgetti cabinetry and Gaggenau appliances.
The Italian influence continues outside each unit with private loggias. Each loggia is an extension of the indoor living space, complete with a full outdoor kitchen and fireplace.
The seven-story building features amenities around every corner. Four-legged friends will love the impeccably landscaped grounds and dog porch.
Residents have the convenience of a private garage and direct access from one of four elevators in the building.
With its modern luxury and European style, Georgetti fits perfectly in the Upper Kirby neighborhood. It is close to shopping and restaurants, and soon, an H-E-B store will be just across the street.
Construction on Giorgetti is set to start soon, as the project was not impacted by hurricane Harvey. Units range from 2,700 to 4,400 square feet, and they are selling quickly. Sales presentations are available daily, and representatives are available if you have any questions. Call 713-600-5062, or visit www.GiorgettiHouston.com for more information.
It might just look like another building popping up, but much forethought and consideration went into creating a condominium for Houston’s high in-demand market.
Developing a condo from start to finish is a thorough process to please discerning clients who choose to make high-rise living their way of life.
UrbanToronto.ca’s online article, How to Develop a Condo Start to Finish, breaks down the steps in making a building come to life. This seven-stage process includes Project Design and Pre-development, Marketing and Sales, Urban Construction, Planning and Legal Compliance, Condo Pre-registration and Occupancy, Condo Registration and Condo Post-Registration.
Getting started begins with knowing your customer and what they desire in a living space.
Real estate developer Randall Davis of Randall Davis Co. has extensive experience in the industry. He said choosing an A+ property, preferably on a corner, is as “good as you can get” especially when its prime location is near major shopping and entertainment venues.
Davis’ properties, which are numerous in Houston, include the Marlowe, Arabella and the recently completed Astoria. The Marlowe is located across from Toyota Center while The Arabella, next to the River Oaks District, is a few blocks from the Galleria.
After land is acquired, a building begins to take shape with architects, designers and contractors.
Fixer.com stated the tasks like creating schematic designs, drafting floor plans, finalizing drawings with incorporated details on material and finishes along with fixtures or equipment are part of the process. Acquiring permits, completing construction documents, selecting contractor and materials while also hiring subcontractors all come into play.
Davis said creating his buildings starts with a concept and builds from there. Astoria took on an art deco air with the Arabella being more modern, and Marlowe portraying a striking bold appearance he said.
“I spend a lot more on the architecture,” said Davis. “People have pride in ownership and like being in a building that’s distinctive. It’s not a beige box.”
After the exterior is addressed, it’s the interior that’s next. Buyers love luxurious amenities with all the extras to create a unique environment.
You can find a gravity-defying rooftop pool with a glass bottom at Market Square Tower. At The River Oaks, there’s a variety with a fitness center, guest rooms, massage and yoga rooms, dog park, and outdoor and catering kitchens. The Warwick offers a little bit of everything with controlled access, 24/7 concierge, valet, tennis courts, putting green and jogging trail to name a few.
Davis has his own approach. At The Arabella, residents can enjoy gourmet chef kitchens, six sky pools and private elevators, garages and gardens. The Astoria has some of the same amenities as Arabella, but also boasts a Starlight infinity-edge pool, pied-a-terre for guests, and private wine room and movie theater.
“My plan is to take the building beyond the competition,” he said. “It helps distinguish the building. We want to do better than the trends and go the extra mile.”
Working with homeowners with floor plans and finishes before delivering is the last step. Presenting the final product is about bringing the best of high-rise living to the forefront.
“It’s a long process. You have to treat customers with a lot of respect because they’re buying a home. You have to deliver a terrific finished product. You need a lot of practice, help, organization and a good general contractor,” Davis said.
