Turnberry Tower: For Those in Need of an Uber-Luxury Condo: Figure 1

Turnberry Tower in downtown Rosslyn is a luxury condo development that caters to buyers who are accustomed to staying at four or five-star hotels, and expect that same type of service while at home. With its high-performance, energy-efficient blue glass exterior and curved façade, Turnberry makes a bold statement that stands out against the Rosslyn skyline.

Location, Parking and Transportation

Turnberry Tower is a 26-story, 247-unit condo development located at 1881 North Nash Street on the corner of North Nash Street and North Key Boulevard (see map here).

Located one block from the Rosslyn Metro station, it is served by both the blue and orange lines, and is across the river from Georgetown, so you can be in the popular DC neighborhood’s restaurant, nightlife and shopping district in about three minutes via cab (or 20 minutes walking).

All units are sold with either a pre-specified number of parking space(s) or guaranteed valet parking. As owners exit the parking garage, they have access to a number major transportation arteries for the DC area (GW Parkway and Routes 66, 50 and 110).

Building Amenities

As would be expected of a high-end luxury building, Turnberry sports top-notch amenities including semi-private elevators, a state-of-the-art fitness center, a common room with party space and media room, an indoor swimming pool with skylight, valet parking, 24-hour doorman and a concierge.

Living Space

Every unit at Turnberry Tower comes “Designer Ready” meaning that walls are primed and floors are provided as bare concrete slabs allowing the purchaser pick the custom paint and the flooring of their choice prior to moving into their unit.

All units are equipped with Snaidero cabinets, Miele appliances and Jacuzzi whirlpool hydrotherapy tubs. The floorplan for most units include an open kitchen leading into the living/dining room. This is an excellent layout for entertaining and the floor-to-ceiling windows allow for plenty of natural light. The master bathrooms are larger than some studio apartments and feature dual sinks, marble flooring with matching marble vanity tops and frameless glass shower enclosures.

Price Range for Available Units

As noted above, Turnberry caters to a condo buyer that expects a certain level of luxury at home and the prices at the development are indicative of that expectation. Prices range from approximately $699,000 for a 1,322 square-foot one-bedroom to over $7.1 million for a Tower Suite at over 5,000 square feet. All units have private balconies, ranging from 254 to 900 square feet. HOA fees run anywhere from $570 to around $2,200 a month, and include payment for most of the amenities mentioned above. Turnberry closed on its first unit in early August 2009 and is approximately half sold at this time.
