Bravern bound: Inside The Bravern Signature Residences
An indoor spa, 25,000-square-foot Terrace Garden, two outdoor dog runs, private theater and two Great Rooms –
Welcome to life inside The Bravern Signature Residences.
While looking for a place to call home in Bellevue, Roderick Bond knew he needed to take his dog, Sasha into account. His six-year-old Golden Retriever needed an outdoor space and Bond was seeking the convenience and security of living in an upscale complex. The two found their match at The Bravern Signature Residences, developed by Schnitzer West.
Hesitant to buy a condominium at the time, Bond was drawn to the apartment homes in the South Tower, situated above The Shops at The Bravern.
“I loved the space the moment I saw it and the added security was what sealed the deal for me,” Bond said. “This isn’t just a home here. This is a community and a lifestyle. It’s the right fit for me.”
His apartment is a 1,300-square-foot, two bedroom, two bath luxury space with rich finishes, expansive windows, hardwood flooring and gourmet kitchens with Bosch appliances. The condominium and apartment towers share a secure, underground parking garage and a 25,000-sqaure-foot lifestyle and entertainment center on the fourth floor. The shared space includes two fireside lobbies, a fitness center, a Garden House, exhibition kitchen and the Terrace Garden with views of Mount Rainier.
“The Terrace is Sasha’s favorite space,” Bond said. “It’s a great place to come and relax, do some work on my laptop or entertain some guests.”
The name “Bravern” is derived from the word “brave” and was chosen to capture the entrepreneurial spirit of Bellevue. The Bravern’s development team visited 25 of the world’s greatest cities and drew inspiration from legendary communities such as Rockefeller Center, Rodeo Drive, Via Condotti, and the Magnificent Mile.
