According to the Mehlman family, luxury should be just as easy to find in a condominium complex as in a single-family home. And if it’s not available, they’ll build it! As owners of two residential real estate development companies, they have been serving the Clayton community for more than 40 years and currently are working on a joint project, The Pearl Condominiums. Husband and wife Mark and Debi own Mark S. Mehlman Condos, and sons Blair and Scott own Mehlman Brothers Condos. They are developing the new property under the ownership group Topton Way Condominiums.
“People in the market for condominiums like these tend to be educated buyers,” Debi explains. “They are looking for a ‘lock the door and leave’ lifestyle that addresses their need for easy, worry-free, luxury living.” Another main attraction is The Pearl’s prime location near Shaw Park, Clayton High School, the Center of Clayton, restaurants, shops and other services. Mark says it’s ideal for employees of Centene Corp., Enterprise Holdings and Caleres who want to live in the area.
Blair adds that it was very important for the new property to meld with its surroundings. “We made sure the buildings fit the neighborhood in terms of architecture and appearance,” he notes. “We designed them to be beautiful and modern, but also to look as if they’ve been part of the area forever. That’s one of our trademarks.”
The two companies have extensive experience developing luxury communities in the Clayton area, including The Crescent and several other midrise condominium projects. Scott says the family is always on the lookout for exciting new opportunities as well. “A development like The Pearl may open a door to our next project,” he notes. “We always stay in tune with what is happening in the area. The four of us bring different styles and perspectives to the table, but we combine them to reach one goal—building beautiful properties for clients. Our strong family bond is a testament that we know how to create lasting relationships.”
Mehlman Brothers Condos and Mark S. Mehlman Condos are family-owned residential real estate development companies that offer luxury living for clients in the Clayton area.
