The Novus Bringing Luxury Living to Downtown Durham
A
ustin Lawrence Partners, a locally based private real estate development firm, plans a new luxury residential offering in downtown Durham’s Five Points district – with completion expected in the fourth quarter of 2024. The Novus, 27-story high-rise, boasts 54 for-sale condominiums and 188 rental apartments, as well as groundfloor retail. The developer indicated more than 40 percent of its condos already are reserved. Condos range in pricing and feature elevated interior finishes including floor-to-ceiling windows, large private balconies, waterfall countertops, integrated cabinet front appliances and more. The building will feature a 25-meter pool flanked by private cabanas, hot tubs, plunge pool, steam room and a massage room to create a luxury resort feel at home. The focus on wellness continues with an outdoor yoga area, a pickleball court, putting green and two golf simulators. The Novus will also offer an outdoor movie theater, a dog park with covered area, and 2,000 sq. ft. of covered common area that transitions between indoor and outdoor communal spaces. A co-working space will include offices, conference and common area space. “We are deeply invested in the continued growth and development of Durham because we personally know what an incredible place to live, work and play it is,” said Greg and Jane Hills, ALP’s founders. “We are thrilled to share our vision for The Novus and bring this new luxury living concept to the area. We’re looking forward to continuing to engage with the community and showcase milestones along the way over the next few years.” The Novus will be located just two blocks from One City Center, ALP’s first residential high rise in downtown Durham, and Unscripted Hotel Durham, the firm’s inspired renovation of one of the city’s most iconic buildings. ALP is collaborating with design partner LS3P Architects and construction partner Samet Corporation to build the addition to the skyline of Durham. The project will be constructed in two phases: Phase One encompasses the residential high-rise, with estimated completion by the end of 2024; while Phase Two
