Los Angeles is a city where dreams come true. In this case, getting the opportunity to tour a…read morehigh-rise luxury apartment in one of America's finest cities was an absolute honor and privilege. Since my lady works in the property management field, we were given a full-on tour of "Vision on Wilshire" thanks to the folks at UDR Apartments who made this all possible.
Located directly on the corner of Wilshire Blvd. and S. Crescent Heights Blvd. in the Beverly Grove neighborhood of Los Angeles, "Vision on Wilshire" opened its doors during the spring of 2018. We ended up meeting with Olga, the Assistant Community Director of this property. The lobby itself looked more like a luxury hotel than an actual apartment. This is the floor that includes a 24-hour concierge, espresso bar (with a high-end Nespresso machine), and the offices where the managers conduct business.
I will have to say that this place sells itself. It is absolutely phenomenal and the amenities are bar none some of the best I've ever seen in my life. This includes a full-on clubhouse, conference rooms, fitness center (with state-of-the-art gym equipment), a massage table, electric car charging stations, and lower garage parking. Additionally, this is a pet friendly community that allows cats and most dog breeds. You also have the option of renting a furnished or unfurnished apartment home.
What really sets Vision on Wilshire away from its competition is their dynamic rooftop pool. Olga mentioned to us that this is one of only a couple high rise apartments in all of Los Angeles that offers a rooftop pool. And even better is that this is offered 24 hours a day! Residents also gain full access to a jacuzzi, private cabanas, and even gas grills for cooking your meals on the roof.
As far as the apartments itself, every apartment home is prewired with high speed internet. You also receive a top-of-the-line gas range, quartz countertops, full-size stackable washer/dryer, glass backsplash, hardwood floors, a walk-in closet, USB outlets (for your phone, tablet, laptop), keyless entry, Bluetooth enabled thermostat, and even a wine cooler! Oh, and did I mention that you get a patio/balcony with some of the most amazing views of the Hollywood Hills?
The lease terms are very flexible as you can lease from a little as one month or as much as one year. As far as the prices, studios start at $3200, 1-bedrooms from $4,300/mo, 2-bedrooms from $6,700/mo, and 3-bedrooms/penthouses that range from $8,000-$12,000/mo. These prices change dramatically depending on the housing market. Do keep in mind that the deposits range from $500-$2500, pet rent is $75/mo, and parking in the underground structure ranges from $250-$400/mo.
If much of what I mentioned fits your needs and budget, I would definitely recommend checking "Vision on Wilshire" out. It screams luxury all over it and is in my humble opinion, one of (if not) the finest high-rise apartments I have ever stepped into. LA has thousands of options when it comes to housing; this to me ranks as one of the best. My rating based on the service and entire experience from visiting here, a perfect five stars.
