Driving along Lakeshore Rd through South East Oakville within the Platinum Belt, you will mainly see large scale, single family estate styled homes. However, recently the Edgemere Private Residences have become the latest and most unique addition to this highly coveted locale. The Edgemere Private Residences are a collection of condominiums nestled along the coastline within Oakville’s most exclusive neighbourhood. The styling follows a modern trend with hints of Muskoka inspired cottage accentuation and inspirations from the surrounding palatial homes. This contemporary combination fosters an architectural flow that blends within the surrounding nature seamlessly while still affording all the benefits of current time period designs. The large portion of land upon which the Edgemere Private Residences have been built was previously owned by Peter Gilgan of Mattamy Homes prior to the sale to Niche Developments. Rather than following the trend of segmenting the space into a subdivision, Niche Developments intelligently decided to create a luxury condo complex that had all the characteristics of the single family residences which are prevalent within the area. This technique also allowed for the formation of a unique product that takes advantage of the lakeside location.

Due to the heritage of the entire site and Oakville’s constant efforts to preserve historically significant structures, the Edgemere Estates development took into account to incorporate the old existing structures into the layout of the entire project. Saving the boathouses and designating a portion of the waterfront space for public use are just some of the positive aspects associated with this development. Utilizing underground parking for the 30 luxury condo residences minimizes surface impact. The mature trees have remained untouched and the entire orientation of the buildings allows for a natural feel, incorporating stone, glass and wood to form quality organic architecture. As visible on the provided map, the total area of the Edgemere Private Residences is quite expansive. the buildings themselves are up to 4 storeys tall and the Garden/Terrace luxury condos offer private elevators for access. Prices range from $3,349,000 to over $5,799,000 depending on square footage, finishes and features. As previously mentioned the developer behind the Edgemere Estates is Niche Developments with NAK Designs handling landscaping and Architecture Alliance being the team behind the structure designs.
