NOVEL Ballantyne brings upscale luxury to a multifamily community, while still retaining a cozy, suburban feel. Part of the Ballantyne area, which has encountered significant growth in recent years, this community is directly adjacent to two existing retail centers, with grocery and restaurants.
Designed as a bespoke “residential atelier,” there are three five-story buildings, totaling 285 units, comprised of studios, one- and two-bedroom options. The design references a modern European feel; soft white facades are enhanced by pops of black or natural woods present in the canopies and stylistic accents. A mix of high-quality amenities includes a clubroom with co-working space, fitness center, dog park, and resort-style pool with covered lounge spaces. Ample greenspaces, with outdoor porches and work areas, are also offered to provide residents and visitors with casual gathering spaces.
