Trading in suburbia for The Ogden

-

that offers VA loans, was a rare gem. The Ogden is not only affordable; its flexible financing options and very smooth buying process made it possible for us to purchase our dream home in the heart of the action — right where we want to be,” Dan Dinga said.

The Dingas especially appreciate the low-maintenanc­e lifestyle. Also, since they work from home, they sold one of their vehicles, because they are able to walk almost everywhere from home, including 150plus restaurant­s, nightlife, museums and attraction­s. And for their fourlegged family member, The Hydrant Club dog care is just a few blocks away. They also enjoy the city lights and stargazing from their balcony.

“The concierge team at The Ogden has made life here so enjoyable, and we appreciate how welcoming the community is to pets. There is even a small dog run on property for Stella to get some exercise. And resident amenities, such as the fitness center and rooftop pool, keep us very happy.” Brenda Dinga said.

“We love both the Strip and downtown, but downtown has a special charm about it that can’t be found anywhere else, so our guests prefer to hang out here when they visit. We also are frequent participan­ts in the exciting and fun activities hosted by Evelyn Connors, the community’s lifestyle director. I never in a million years would have imagined agreeing to live in a condominiu­m, but The Ogden has completely changed my perspectiv­e, and I couldn’t be happier,” she added.

Since acquiring The Ogden in 2013, owner DK Las Vegas has made a $2 million investment to re- fresh the lobby with high-end design treatments, creating an immediate sense of luxury and arrival. Homes at The Ogden range from a one-bedroom, 815-square-foot residence with prices starting in the mid$200,000s to a three-bedroom plus den, 2,044-square-foot home starting in the low $600,000s. The Ogden’s single-story, open floor plans offer flex spaces that can serve as a home office, den or yoga room, extra bedrooms for accommodat­ing multigener­ational family and guests and expansive windows that fill interiors with natural light — all sought-after design features by millennial­s, profession­als, empty-nesters and retirees.
