Villages at Edgewood recognized by National Association of Home Builders - Constructed by Windover Construction and Dewing Schmid Kearns, Architects + Planners

According to Windover Construction, the Villages at Edgewood, a residential community built in partnership with Dewing Schmid Kearns, Architects + Planners, has recently been honored by the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) with a Gold in the best of 2013 50+ Housing Awards. This annual awards program recognizes excellence and innovation in the design, development, lifestyle and marketing of housing for this target market. The Villages at Edgewood is a continuing care retirement community made up of 24 single family residences. The homes are located on the grounds of a full-service retirement community, providing residential living combined with ongoing support and care. The farm setting and traditional Shaker-style architectural details create a distinct New England feel. Each home features two bedrooms, two baths, two car garage and full basement with high-end finishes throughout. The project received the award in the category for detached homes up to 2,100 s/f. "Everyone involved did an exceptional job of bringing the project to a successful completion," said Marlene Rotering, president and CEO of Edgewood Retirement Community. "The village fits perfectly with our mission and vision, greatly enhancing our overall community. We couldn't be more pleased with the outcome." "We were honored to be a part of this innovative assignment," said Lee Dellicker, president of Windover Construction. "With thoughtful collaboration and planning, we were able to deliver a beautiful, new community. We are so pleased to see it recognized on a national level." "Our goal was to combine traditional design with modern convenience to create something truly unique. And we couldn't have asked for a better team to help bring it to life," said Jeff Dearing, principal at Dewing Schmid Kearns. "The partnership we developed with Windover was crucial to the success of this project." Based in Manchester-by-the-Sea, Mass., Windover Construction builds commercial projects for institutional and corporate clients across a variety of focus areas, including academic and healthcare facilities, residential communities, banking, hospitality and retail.
