Realtor: The Ogden ‘takes the cake’
After nearly two decades in Las Vegas, Realtor Helen Michel has witnessed the popularity of high-rise condos grow to new heights. While there are several high-rise condominiums dotting the Las Vegas skyline, Michel believes The Ogden in the heart of downtown is exceptional. Not only does it literally stand taller than its high-rise neighbors, The Ogden’s comprehensive amenity package compares favorably with those of Strip towers.
Originally from Russia, Michel moved to Los Angeles 24 years ago, before moving to Las Vegas in 2000 to be closer to family.
“I have been selling homes for a long time, but when builders began breaking ground for high-rises in Las Vegas, I was excited to dive into that market and refine my skills to suit that audience,” Michel said. “Downtown Las Vegas has evolved so much over the last 10 years, and one of the best things to happen in the area is the development of more vertical residences. I’ve done a lot of business in downtown, and I genuinely believe The Ogden takes the cake for high-rise living because of its amenities, location and stunning floor plans.”
Michel shared that while she has a wide range of clients, she has noticed a pattern in those whose needs fit the high-rise lifestyle.
“Young professionals looking to buy their first home find it helpful to have The Ogden’s onsite lenders guide them through every step of the loan process,” Michel said. “Small-business owners who work from home are drawn to The Ogden’s floor plans, expansive views and proximity to great restaurants. Snowbirds who call The Ogden their second home love the proximity to gaming, downtown hotels and entertainment as they escape harsh winters. And finally, couples in their golden years appreciate the opportunity to ‘right size’ their home to create a more hassle-free and enjoyable lifestyle.”
Michel said The Ogden has left no stone unturned during a recent refresh of the tower and its amenities. She shared that her clients especially appreciate The Ogden’s convenient access to freeways and the Strip. She said clients are even more blown away when they see they see the level of luxury at The Ogden, including granite marble finishes, city and mountain views and an array of floor plans.
“There is just so much appeal to living at The Ogden,” Michel said. “Clients feel the energy when they walk into The Ogden, and they are immediately taken by the friendly and helpful concierge staff, the polished lobby décor and the bustling vibe inside Itsy Bitsy: Ramen and Whiskey. It’s basically work, live, play — the best of all worlds, under one roof.”
Homes at The Ogden range from a one-bedroom, 815-square-foot residence for $200,000 to a three-bedroom, plus den 2,044-square-foot home for $629,000. Residences feature a modern design aesthetic in keeping with the architecture and the lifestyle vibe, private balconies and expansive views of downtown Las Vegas, the Strip and the mountains that frame the valley.
The Ogden’s single-story, open floor plans offer flex spaces that can serve as a home office, den or yoga room, extra bedrooms for accommodating multigenerational family and guests, and spacious windows that fill interiors with natural light.
