Buyers Flock to Synergistic Lifestyle of Serenity and Sophistication
Situated at the heart of the downtown Tempe Mill Avenue district, these spacious two and three bedroom en-suite homes represent the latest collaboration between Clary and renowned architect Bing Hu, each of whom drew upon their own recollections of hometown architecture.
Catclar Investments cater to the discerning tastes and active lifestyles of today’s urbanites, the luxury townhome neighborhood of 4 TwentyOne West are selling fast!
“The response to this lifestyle-driven neighborhood has been immediate and enthusiastic,” says developer Irene Clary. “Ours is a different type of product that has not been seen here previously. Tempe was a natural choice given the high influx of young professionals who prefer to spend their free time at the gym, bicycling to the nearby lake, shopping, or dining, rather than maintaining their yard.”
“We feel these homes are a perfect blend of the classical brownstone, with all the rich architectural detail associated with these exteriors, and the sleek, sophistication of the urban-vertical interiors seen in Bing’s hometown of Beijing, and Irene’s hometown of Toronto” says Clary. “It’s the best of both worlds, affording the elegance and nostalgia of a classic small-town Americana streetscape with refined, transitional modern floorplans.”
With framing completed, the project has begun to really take shape drawing tremendous interest and brisk traffic. According to the developers, occupancy will be available this September, but there is still time for buyers to take advantage of incentives such as a 21.8 cubic foot Bosch stainless steel finish refrigerator. Interested parties are encouraged to act now so that they have the opportunity to make custom upgrades to their home including but not limited to flooring, cabinetry, and energy efficient solar panels. Availability of upgrades are dependent on the phase of construction at purchase.
With the emphasis on an enhanced lifestyle, these expansive three and four-story plans, ranging from 1,553 to 2,270 square feet, feature a soothing, interior Zen Garden and spacious, exterior balconies. Meticulously designed, open floor plans are accentuated with 11-foot ceilings on the main level, rich hardwood floors, granite countertops, Bosch stainless steel appliances, and Kohler plumbing fixtures. In addition to two private balconies, each home includes an attached, private two-car garage. Prices range from approximately $365,000 to $534,000 and include a complimentary 3-hour interior design consultation.
“Despite living in the heart of the city close to entertainment, culture, and work, these private, outdoor living spaces afford our residents a secluded retreat where they can relax or socialize with their neighbors,” notes Clary.
Endeavoring to maximize energy-efficiency and other green components, the developers have incorporated low-e Milgard windows, GreenFiber wall structures that utilize 85 percent recycled products providing solid noise attenuation between walls, and optional upgrades to solar panels for added energy savings.
Many of the standard features included in construction of these homes are typically considered upgrades in other new home communities, but Clary feels they are essential to realizing her vision for transitional contemporary luxury at 4TwentyOne West.
In fact, every aspect of this neighborhood has been carefully scrutinized and selected in an effort to create a one-of-a-kind living environment. Clary has been involved in the design and development of townhome projects since 1990, when she lived and worked in Toronto, Canada. “Over the years I’ve had the opportunity to fine-tune and tweak designs and scout unique locations,” says Clary. “4TwentyOne West is the culmination of all those years of experience and I believe, offers an ideal environment for those who thrive on the energy and amenities of the city yet, like all of us, want to come home to quiet luxury.
“When I first moved to Scottsdale in 2000, we spent New Year’s Eve in Tempe,” she continues. “I loved the vibrancy and feeling of charged energy. I immediately recognized that a beautifully designed townhome community combined with proximity to all of the best shops, restaurants, cultural amenities, and employment centers would be a perfect match. I knew that someday I would want to bring that vision to life creating an eclectic cultural experience.”
Clary resides in Scottsdale with her husband and three children and is active in her community supporting various civic and charitable organizations. A percentage of all sales at 4TwentyOne West will be donated to help Casa Center for Positive Social Change expand its services. Since 1973, Casa has assisted more than a million children, teens and adults through their Valley school programs focusing on social and emotional awareness and positive relationship and communication skills that significantly reduce bullying and relationship violence and abuse.
