Grand opening this weekend at Old Bellevue’s Newest Condominiums,
One Main Street; already 11 homes sold pre-grand opening

Over 285 groups toured One Main Street Condominiums in Old Bellevue during the Sneak Preview weekend on March 13^th and 14th, making it one of the most successful preview weekends in recent memory. The first public open house at One Main Street Condominiums is this weekend, Saturday and Sunday, March 27^th and 28^th, with three model homes and a selection of other available homes open for touring from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. With construction nearly completed, this is the first chance for prospective buyers to tour and purchase these new luxury condos, most of which are ready to move in today.

One Main Street is a ten-story building with just 57 homes, constructed of concrete, yet designed in scale with the surrounding Old Bellevue neighborhood. One Main Street’s address scores a near-perfect 91 on walkscore.com with unique, local businesses that you can enjoy from a morning coffee at Gilbert’s to a happy hour cocktail at the 520 Bar and Grill. The boulevard is lined with locally-owned boutiques and restaurants with a friendly attitude and a personal touch.

“The thought of living in Downtown Bellevue appeals to many people, but they don’t like the idea of the city noise and heavy traffic, and the feeling you are going to get run over trying to get across the street to your local restaurant,” says Mike Miller of Matrix Real Estate who represents One Main. “At One Main, you get all the benefits of living in Downtown Bellevue, but on a quiet street in a real neighborhood. You can step outside your front door and stroll to shopping or dinner, or just take a walk in the Meydenbauer waterfront neighborhood. It’s really the best of both worlds.”

Parks are also just outside the front door, with a convenient pedestrian walkway offering easy access to the Bellevue Downtown Park, (with Bellevue Square and Lincoln Square just on the other side), and waterfront access just two blocks away at Meydenbauer Park. The proposed new waterfront park in Bellevue is just across the street from One Main, and when completed it will extend Main Street to a public waterfront with a swimming beach, pedestrian pier, picnic areas, kayak storage and a floating boardwalk with short-term moorage.

Inside, there are 37 unique floorplans with one or two bedrooms, and three-bedroom homes coming soon. Homes are thoughtfully designed with expansive kitchens, spa bathrooms, powder rooms for guests, and many have dens that are large enough to double as a guest bedroom.

Floor-to-ceiling windows flood the spaces with natural light and capture spectacular views of Meydenbauer Bay with the Downtown Seattle skyline in the distance, Mount Rainier to the south, and the Olympic Mountains as well as city lights of the Downtown Bellevue skyline to the east. Many homes feature oversized decks and terraces, some pre-plumbed for your gas barbecue, extending your living room to the outdoors with plenty of space for your container gardens and outdoor living.

Custom-engineered German cabinetry by SieMatic lends a sleek elegance and convenience to the gourmet kitchens which also feature sealed limestone, quartz or granite countertops topping large work islands, full-height glass tile backsplashes, Bosch stainless steel appliances, and Zephyr stainless steel venting hoods. The spa bathrooms are equally stunning, with oversized, open walk-in showers, deep soaking tubs, double-sink vanities, radiant heat floors and heated towel rails.

Conveniently, each home comes equipped with Lagotek wireless home automation with a video touch screen for front door monitoring, plus upgradable controls for lighting, blinds and media. The building has a formal lobby with controlled keypad entrance, concierge service, two high-speed elevators, and reserved, controlled-access garage parking and storage included with purchase (up to two parking spaces per home).

Home prices range from the mid $300’s to $1.6 million. 3.5% FHA financing is available. In addition, below-market jumbo interest rates are available for under 5% through our on-site preferred lender.

Three fully furnished homes, including two by Greenbaum Home Furnishings, are open this weekend, March 27^th and 28^th, 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. at 10000 Main Street, Bellevue. A lender from Cobalt Mortgage will be on hand to answer your questions about pre-qualifying for a home loan. Visitors can enter for a chance to win one of three $500 gift certificates to Greenbaum Home Furnishings.
