The Ashton Dallas Apartment Tour: Floor Plans & Amenities

If you’re researching Dallas apartments—whether you’re local or brand new to the city—The Ashton is a building you’ll want to have on your radar. This Uptown Dallas high-rise combines peaceful luxury living with a full suite of amenities, and in this tour, I’ll walk you through everything you need to know to see if The Ashton could be the right fit for your next move.

Welcome to The Ashton in Uptown Dallas

The Ashton is a 21-story high-rise built in 2005, offering 267 units that range from one-bedroom and two-bedroom layouts to three-bedrooms and penthouses. Located in Uptown Dallas, this building is known for its quiet, laid-back atmosphere and clean, well-maintained spaces. If you’re looking for a party scene, The Ashton might not be the best fit—but if you value peace, privacy, and a more established community, it’s worth a look.

First Impressions: Lobby & Concierge

As you enter The Ashton, you’ll notice the 24/7 concierge and a private seating area featuring a unique fish tank—a rare touch among Dallas high-rises. There are coffee machines, jars of dog treats, and three elevators just behind the concierge desk, making the lobby both welcoming and functional.

Parking & Valet Services

The Ashton offers valet parking (7:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. on weekdays, 7:00 a.m. to 1:00 a.m. on weekends), which is extended compared to many buildings in Dallas. There’s also guest parking on the ground level, all within a covered garage. Residents have access to five levels of secured parking, with entry via toll tag or a building-issued tag, plus a few EV chargers for electric vehicles.

Inside the Units: Floor Plans

One-Bedroom (A1)

The A1 is a staged one-bedroom unit featuring hardwood in common areas, tile in the kitchen and bath, and carpet in the bedroom. Kitchens come with Maytag appliances, and bathrooms include a dual vanity with a tub and shower. Note that the bedroom in this layout does not have a window—something to consider based on your preferences. However, the living room boasts floor-to-ceiling windows and a long balcony facing the Crescent Hotel, providing plenty of natural light in the main living space.

Two-Bedroom (B6)

The B6 is a spacious two-bedroom layout, reportedly over 1,500 square feet (always verify current details with the leasing office). Both bedrooms feature floor-to-ceiling windows, and the kitchen follows the building’s signature look with brown cabinets and white quartz countertops. This floor plan works well for those who work from home and need a dedicated office space or for anyone needing an extra room.

One-Bedroom Penthouse

The Ashton’s one-bedroom penthouse stands out for its expansive wall of windows, maximizing natural light. The kitchen is tucked in the corner, opening up a large living area—perfect for entertaining or just having extra room to spread out. While it’s called a penthouse, it feels more like a generously sized one-bedroom, but the label is yours to use as you like.

Amenities at The Ashton

Pool & Lounge

The fifth-floor pool lounge includes ample seating, vending and coffee machines, and leads out to the pool area. The pool deck offers plenty of loungers, tables, and shaded spots under a pergola covered in greenery. There are also gas grills and outdoor TVs for residents to enjoy.

Fitness Center

The gym features cold water, an electric scale, free weights (dumbbells up to 75 lbs), a Smith machine, and cardio equipment. It’s a solid on-site option, though if you’re into heavy lifting or need more space, you may want to keep your gym membership elsewhere.

Work-from-Home Spaces & Conference Room

Residents have access to a work area with two desktop computers (a Dell PC and an iMac) and a printer. There’s also a reservable conference room with glass doors and windows, perfect for meetings or focused work sessions.

Theater Room & Wine Cellar

The theater room seats about 15 and is accessed via a hallway lined with art. The wine cellar offers residents secure, numbered boxes for storing wine or spirits, available 24/7 to those who reserve a spot.

Resident Lounge & Kitchen

The main lounge area features two TVs above a full kitchen—ideal for hosting larger gatherings or cooking if your unit’s kitchen feels cramped. Residents can reserve this space along with a dining area in the back for private events.

Dog Park

The Ashton’s gated dog park is reserved for residents and is kept clean with twice-weekly power washing. There’s plenty of space for pets to run and play, and the area is secure and well-maintained.

Its floor plans cater to a range of needs—from solo renters to those working remotely or hosting guests.
