Rise above it all at New Horizon's highly anticipated condo on Burlington's waterfront
Burlington's beautiful waterfront will be forever transformed with the on-going development at the greatly awaited Bridgewater Residence on the Lake.New Horizon Development Group, a proven leader in Southwestern Ontario for building communities with picturesque settings, savvy design and high quality craftsmanship, is offering something truly once-in-a-generation on the Burlington waterfront. Full construction began in Spring 2016 when New Horizon Development Group broke ground at the highly anticipated ground breaking ceremony. What once started as a vision will soon become a reality for those who will call Bridgewater home.
With over 80 per cent of the development sold, those who are looking to call this magnificent waterfront setting home have the opportunity to experience the height of luxury at Burlington's most prestigious address. Amongst the available suites, only two breathtaking penthouses remain at Bridgewater Residences on the Lake. Each of these units features over 3,000 square feet of space, three bedroom plus den, and four balconies with unobstructed views of the lakefront. It is truly a taste of luxury few have ever seen.
"Luxury in the sky is the best way I can describe this special opportunity to reside in a place that truly has it all," says New Horizon's president, Jeff Paikin. "Size, space and uncompromising quality inside, with a view and lifestyle offering unmatched in this marketplace, make this truly a once in a generation opportunity to live on the spectacular downtown Burlington waterfront."
Nestled along Lake Ontario, in the heart of the city in arguably Southwestern Ontario's finest location, Bridgewater Residences is a destination community for those seeking luxury and lakeside living at its finest. Bridgewater Residences on the Lake presents a 22-storey residential condominium paired with a 7-storey boutique residential condominium, offering a never-before seen standard of luxury in the City of Burlington. The two landmark buildings will include 11,000 square feet of ground-level convenience commercial space, complimented by a four-star hotel. Residents will have access to limitless amenities such as a state-of-the-art fitness centre, entertainment lounge, indoor pool, a 3,000 square foot ballroom, executive boardroom-style meeting rooms, full-service restaurant, concierge services and 24-hour room service.
To further enrich the lifestyle, each element of these luxurious residential condominiums is designed with sophistication and elegance by internationally recognized designer Brian Gluckstein.
Bridgewater Residences provides all the advantages of luxurious and convenient condo living in the finest location, the Lakefront in Canada's best mid-sized city. Conveniently located within walking distance to an abundance of local amenities, including Spencer Smith Park, the Waterfront Trail and the new and improved Joseph Brant Hospital, Bridgewater truly provides a relaxing and care-free lifestyle. Additional transportation options include easy access to the QEW, 400 series highways, GO Stations, and two international airports within an hour's drive.
While building continues, suites in Bridgewater Residences continue to sell. The award-winning presentation centre, which was originally situated on development property, was downsized and relocated.
An attractive selection of suites still remain, most with spectacular unobstructed waterfront views. Now is the time to determine that Bridgewater Residences on the Lake is the next place you should call home.
Visit the new Presentation Centre, located at 439 John Street in Burlington. For further information or to book an appointment, contact Sonya or Brad from the Bridgewater sales team or visit the website.
