Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage, the largest real estate services organization in New England, is pleased to announce the introduction of The Sea Point series of condominium homes to the Lewis Farm Conservancy community. Representatives of Lewis Farm, LLC, developers of the project, Pine Brook Builders, and Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage, the marketing firm for Lewis Farm, held a special groundbreaking ceremony.
Presently, the Lewis Farm Conservancy contains 40 individual home-sites accommodating both single family and condominium homes. Located in the seaside town of Kittery, Lewis Farm Conservancy is an environmentally responsible, planned community offering homeowners their own private sanctuary within a 135-acre site. The homes are hidden amongst a handful of wooded cluster neighborhoods surrounded by 90 acres of private conservation land.
With this groundbreaking, prospective buyers will now have a wide range of housing options to choose from at Lewis Farm, including custom estate homes, cottage, cape and colonial style single-family homes, and condominium homes.
Phase I of the condominium construction is well underway in the Dahlia Dr. neighborhood at Lewis Farm. Each of the seven lots off Dahlia Dr. will contain two condominium homes. Thee three-level, two and three bedroom cape style homes are being offered with 1,650 s/f of living space. The homes offer expansion capabilities in the bonus room above the two-car garage or in the full walkout garden level.
Additional features include first floor master bedroom suite, hardwood floors, granite countertops, cathedral ceilings, skylights, corner gas fireplace, entertainment deck, laundry room, and loft/office. Construction of the homes is scheduled for completion this December. Pre-construction sales are currently underway and a number of design finishes and floor plans may be selected prior to completion with prices starting at $379,900.
"When we envisioned this development, we anticipated there would be a great need and desire for those who wanted to live at Lewis Farm, but within a condominium home setting, offering not only the amenities of living at Lewis Farm but with the added benefits of condominium ownership as well," said Richard Johnson, managing partner of Lewis Farm, LLC. "We are meeting this demand by providing uniquely designed, green and quality constructed condominium homes that can be enjoyed by multi-generational homeowners, from first time buyers to retirees and empty nesters."
Lewis Farm Conservancy is the first green community in York County. The building team is actively involved with the LEED for Homes pilot program promoting Green Building Council efforts and Energy Star solutions. LEED for Homes is a voluntary rating system that promotes the design and construction of high performance green homes. A green home uses less energy, water, and natural resources; creates less waste; and is healthier and more comfortable for the occupants.
Benefits of a LEED home include lower energy and water bills; reduced greenhouse gas emissions; and less exposure to mold, mildew and other indoor toxins. The LEED Rating System is the nationally recognized standard for green building.
Lewis Farm's 90 acres of protected conservation land offers mature forest groves, peaceful walking trails, a festive pavilion and large open meadows. Lewis Farm enjoys a superb location just minutes to the Atlantic Ocean, extraordinary beaches, boating, art galleries, and museums, recreation facilities, and world-class restaurants.
The Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage office in Portsmouth, NH was selected by Lewis Farm, LLC to exclusively market the community.
"This is a landmark development and we anticipate that these new condominium homes will sell quickly," said Johnson. "The units are competitively priced and buyers will not find a comparable condominium home in this area, in this natural setting, and at this starting price point."
