The Lux Life

For the last few weeks I have been working on the final portion of the cover story for the February issue of Triangle Catalyst Magazine. Finally, we are getting close to the end!

The feature piece is about 2,000 words and highlights downtown living in Raleigh and Durham. You know, the old tobacco warehouses and cotton mill’s turned lofts and the luxury high rise condos with all the bells and whistles. Really, it covers what is out there to buy now, what’s in the works and what they all have to offer.

I have really enjoyed this assignment. Some of these properties are so unique. You have some with concrete floors still baring the marks from earlier days as a paint shop. Others with freight elevators, rooftop pools, even meals catered to your condo or loft from the swanky restaurant in the lobby. Best of all, these options are all within walking distance of shops, restaurants and bars.

It really makes you think … is there any reason to get that home with the white picket fence and big backyard???? Who wants to mow lawn on the weekends when you could be enjoying a swim in a pool overlooking the city?

The main factor ...If you are not scared to pay $220,000+ for one or two bedrooms or even $1.2 million than antee up!
