Nobu Residences Bellevue - The Residences

Standing directly across the pedestrian courtyard from its sister tower, The Residences at Nobu Residences Bellevue (formerly known as Avenue Residences) makes up the 25-story south tower of downtown Bellevue’s flagship mixed-use block. Completed in 2024 and re-branded alongside the master development backed by Silverstein Properties, The Residences offers a contemporary, approachable entry point into this world-class campus.

While The Estates tower targets ultra-luxury multi-million-dollar custom buyers, The Residences delivers smart, efficient floor plans with sleek European style. If you want the unbeatable location, energy, and perks of a global luxury brand without buying a 2,500-square-foot estate, this is your ticket into the community.

The Building & Residences

The Residences features 224 homes spanning from compact 570-square-foot one-bedrooms up to comfortable two-bedroom and three-bedroom floor plans around 1,400+ square feet. The aesthetic inside is clean, serene, and modern, pulling inspiration from Pacific Northwest natural tones blended with warm contemporary lines.

Our Take

The Good:

• More Accessible Price Point in a World-Class Complex: You get to be part of the most talked-about, design-forward development in Bellevue without paying Estate-level penthouse prices. It opens up the building to move-in-ready buyers in the sub-$1.5M range.

• Global Hotel & Brand Perks: You still get the upside of the Nobu ecosystem—priority restaurant reservations, in-home dining access, and worldwide hotel hospitality perks.

• Ultimate Bellevue Way Walkability: Stepping out your front door puts you immediately at Lincoln Square, Bellevue Square, and endless restaurant options without ever needing to touch your car.

Things to Keep in Mind:

• Different Finish Level Than The Estates: While finishes are sharp, modern, and high-quality, remember that the South Tower uses a different finish spec (Pacific Northwest contemporary) than the North Tower's Ernestomeda/Gaggenau custom estate buildouts.

• West-Facing View Watch: Just like with The Estates, if you’re looking at west-facing homes, keep an eye across the street on the Bellevue QFC/Bartell shopping center. Pinnacle International’s long-term plan calls for multiple high-rise towers there, which will eventually alter western views down the road.

• Busy Core Energy: This isn’t a sleepy side street. Between traffic on NE 8th and the weekend retail rush around Bellevue Square, expect an energetic, dense downtown environment.
