“Our first purchasers have told us they decided to buy at Edgewater because of its convenient location, the full warranties they receive because its new construction and the fact Edgewater is being developed within an established, gated community that already has all its amenities in place,” said Kemp Deming of Hidden Bay Development Management, LLC.
Edgewater is being developed on the remaining sites in Hidden Bay, a gated, 14-acre condominium community located on picturesque Little Sarasota Bay, a popular recreational waterway that separates the main land from Siesta Key and the Gulf of Mexico.
When completed, Edgewater at Hidden Bay will consist of three bayfront buildings encompassing 52 new residences with covered parking and spectacular bay views of Little Sarasota Bay.
“This groundbreaking ceremony marks the beginning of construction of Phase 1, which is the first of three buildings,” stated Deming. “The first of the three five-story buildings is scheduled to be completed in July 2017 with the second building’s construction commencement scheduled for January 2017.”
Edgewater’s units, the Siesta, Casey and Lido, represent three open-concept floor plans ranging from 2,434 square feet to 2,105 square feet of living area all with under building covered parking.
All of Edgewater’s three floor plans contain three bedrooms and either two or two-and-a-half-baths, 9-foot ceilings in the main rooms, full code compliant impact windows and doors, and a building security entry system.
