Solaia, the luxury new condo building designed by Ft. Lee, NJ-based Architectura,in Hudson County’s North Bergen, has enjoyed a flurry of sales throughout the normally slow holiday and winter season.    

The boutique 14-story building nestled in the Palisades Cliffs overlooking the Hudson River and Manhattan skyline recorded eight new sales in a recent six-week period, according to developer Skyline Development Group.  The sales, including several to former New York City residents, totaled more than $10 million and elevated the property to 35% sold, with most of those homes already closed and occupied.  Included in the burst of activity was one of the most significant sales to date at the building, a spectacular three-bedroom penthouse home with private outdoor space that sold for a record $2 million.

Light-Filled Living Spaces

Solaia features a mix of well-appointed one-, two- and three-bedroom homes with just seven Manhattan-facing residences per floor.  Most homes have private outdoor space.  Available layouts include a highly popular two-bedroom, two-bathroom floorplan with a flexible bonus room that can be used as a home office, den or bedroom. Residences at the building are priced from the $600,000s, according to The Marketing Directors, Solaia’s exclusive sales and marketing agent.

Designed by renowned architectural firm Architectura and curated by Doni Douglas, Solaia fully maximizes its natural and picturesque surroundings on an elevated, secluded street adjacent to the historic Palisades Cliffs and overlooking the majestic Hudson River.  The light-filled residences feature expansive, energy-efficient windows, dark espresso flooring, in-home full-size washer and dryer, and living rooms with gas fireplaces, along with Smart lights, thermostats, and Latch keyless entry to homes and amenity spaces for everyday convenience.

Kitchens boast custom Italian cabinetry, SapienStone countertops with waterfall islands, and GE Café Wi-Fi enabled appliances.  Luxurious master bedrooms call attention to custom closet systems and five-fixture en-suite master baths with Seedwood tile feature walls and oversized soaking tubs.

Emphasis on Mind, Body and Spirit

The awe-inspiring 10,000 square-foot one-of-a-kind amenity center at Solaia was designed as a holistic approach to balanced living.  Highlighting the spa-infused offering is The Sanctuary, a three-story wellness center dedicated to rejuvenation and active lifestyles for exclusive use of the residents and their guests.  Its exceptional spaces include a fully equipped fitness center with 18-ft ceilings, TRX and boxing, and a steam room, sauna, experiential rain shower, Himalayan salt inhalation therapy room with infrared relaxation stations, jetted vitality tub, and dressing rooms with personalized residents’ lockers.
