Those looking for big-city luxury building amenities in the suburbs can now find them in a new Watertown property, with apartment prices lower than you'll pay in Boston or Cambridge.
The 206-unit Watertown Mews, whose first tenants moved in yesterday, was developed by Mill Creek Residential Trust, a Texas-based company founded in 2010 that already has more than 40 luxury properties around the country. The Mews is its first Boston-area complex, and it's designed with some urban pizzazz.
For starters, there's a large, Art Deco-inspired marble-floored lobby with a light-box wall and built-in gas fireplace.
The Mews' main building has 164 apartments, with a huge section of the first floor dedicated to amenity spaces. There's an 8,000-square-foot clubroom that has a living room with doors out to a patio, as well as a wet bar and shuffleboard and pool tables. Across the hall is a large media/gaming room featuring a nine-screen TV setup.
The business center has work space with computers plus a glass-enclosed conference room. A fitness facility also has a yoga/Pilates studio. Outdoors is a saltwater pool and deck, a bocce court and a courtyard with barbecue grills.
"People are amazed at the amenities here and there's no extra charge to use any of them," says property manager Trenda Wallace of the Bozzuto Group. "It has hotel-like qualities, and renters can entertain their friends here, and always have places to go within the complex."
Prices are lower than comparable new luxury digs in the city. You can actually find apartments here for less than $2,000 a month, with 535- to 553-square-foot studios renting for between $1,795 and $1,910 per month.
One-bedrooms average about $2,300, two bedrooms are around $2,600 and there are a few three-bedrooms about $3,200. Utilities are not included, but outdoor parking is free. Garage spaces rent for $50 to $90 a month.
Wallace says that 30 apartments have been leased, with two-bedrooms the most popular.
We took a look at a 780-square-foot one-bedroom model with wood-plank flooring that is renting for $2,230 a month. It features a galley kitchen with quartz countertops, espresso-stained cabinets. G.E. stainless-steel appliances and white and glass-mosaic tile backsplashes. The open living/dining area has glass doors out to a private balcony. The carpeted bedroom has a big walk-though closet to a master bathroom with a tiled floor and shower with a deep-soaking tub. The unit also comes with a stacked washer/dryer.
A second 42-unit Mews building will open in September, and Wallace projects the Mews will be fully leased by October.
"We're getting a great response from people who see it and regrets from a few who are renting elsewhere," said Wallace. "We're offering city living in the suburbs."
