First Look Inside the Luxury High Rise at 9 W. Walton in the Gold Coast

9 w walton almost built 2017

This 3-bedroom in 9 W. Walton in the Gold Coast just came on the market.

If you recall, this is a luxury new construction luxury building with 66 units.

It’s the building in which Citadel CEO Ken Griffith recently bought several units, including the penthouse.

The building has been popular with buyers and is basically sold out.

With this unit coming on the market, this is the first look we’ve had at “real” photos of the interiors (i.e. not computer generated by the developer.)

It has European oak hardwood floors and custom crown molding throughout.

The kitchen has O’Brian Harris cabinets and luxury appliances by Subzero and Wolf.

The master suite has a spa bath with heated floors and a Victoria Albert slipper tub.

Each unit has a large, recessed heated terrace.

It has central air, a separate 7×7 laundry room and 2-car parking is included.

The building has an exercise room and an indoor pool.

This unit closed this week and came back on the market the next day.

According to Redfin, it has come back on the market for $665,000 more than the original closing price, at $3.9 million.

Is demand so strong that it will get the premium?

Melinda Jakovich at Coldwell Banker has the listing. See the pictures here.

  1. Really really nice but I kind of feel like its a waste having that bathtub and associated bathroom take up the corner window exposure of this place!
    Can not afford, can never afford but it looks pretty thats for sure.

    I would think that having it staged might help give a better perspective on how large and tall the ceilings are and how livable the space would be

  2. Depressing to spend $3.5-4 million and be that low down.

  3. Nice corner windows being used by a tub that looks into the building next door – fail.

  4. Looks very similar to the renovated units in the adjacent condo/apartment building at 2 Delaware (by the same developer). Looks nice, but i wouldn’t pay that much for a condo when I can buy a house for the same price in the gold coast.

  5. Looks like every other luxury condo these days. You could buy multiple more interesting properties for this kind of money.

  6. Staging would help.

    Also, like others have said, I really don’t understand why that one bathroom just has a tub in the corner by the windows and a ton of unused space. I also don’t get the appeal of that at all — assuming you can’t see in, is it supposed to be great to bathe and look at the view?

  7. Agreed that this looks like every other new place. A bunch of white walls all over the place with Viking appliances. Yawn. And the pool? Really? That’s it? The heated balcony is good though. Finally a balcony that can be used in three seasons. If I were in the market, id wait to see what the new place at 1300 n. LSD is going to look like.

    Why do you assume you can’t see in?

    There’s another condo building just south of this building that you can see in the pictures. That is VERY close to be sitting in your bathtub (or, frankly, standing in your underwear in front of the sink.)

    I don’t understand the point of this either. While I like natural light in the bathroom, in a dense urban environment, corner windows seems a bit much.

  9. Just giving it the benefit of the doubt. Obviously if there’s any chance you can see in, it’s a total fail of a setup, but even if you can’t I don’t get it, given other possible ways to use the corner windows.
