I had a light lunch at Desert Ridge today (salmon salad…I’m on a mission to be the Biggest Loser!), and subsequently took the opportunity to swing by City North and check on the status of the luxury rentals they have at the Residences. Stacia Fox greeted me and then gave me a wonderful tour of what they have available with regard to rental units.
The second floor is currently available, with move-in nearly immediately, while the fourth floor won’t be ready until mid-January (still pretty soon). After discounts, prices on the second floor start as low as $1175 for a one bedroom, $1880 for a two bedroom, and $3125 for the large two bedroom plus den. Quoted rates are actually higher, but the first two months are free! There are actually 3 different one bedroom options and 4 different two bedroom options, so there’s decent variety to choose from.
Each unit will have granite countertops in the kitchen, quality cabinets, GE Profile stainless steel appliances, including fridge, washer, dryer, a mix of Italian tile flooring with Berber carpets, 10 foot ceilings, and 8 foot doorways. We toured the model for the E model, which was fully furnished and looked great.
Along with price and number of bedrooms, you probably want to know what else you get. Here are some of the perks:
- One parking spot per bedroom leased. They are considering leasing additional spots for those in need.
- Salt water swimming pool and spa.
- There is a concierge. Unfortunately, the extent of the services weren’t available today, as that department was on vacation.
- Homes range in size from 753 square feet to 1805 square feet.
- A storage area for each unit is provided, which was approximately the same size as the laundry room, and certainly large enough to store a bicycle.
- Residents get a discount from the stores/restaurants at City North. Details are available from the concierge.
Two small pets are allowed (dogs/cats), as long as they are less than 25 lbs. The association is paying for water/sewer/trash/gas for a flat monthly fee of either $65/mo for the one bedrooms or $90/mo for the two bedrooms for those utilities. Deposits are extremely reasonable at $700 combined ($200 of which is non-refundable) along with a $45 application fee.
Clearly City North is being aggressive with their pricing. If you are in the market for a new luxury rental in North Phoenix, call or email me. I’ll be happy to show you around.
