Eanes ISD Lakes Edge Community Update

I have received numbers of inquiry on the new gated Eanes ISD Lakes Edge community, and it’s understandable that many potential buyers are looking for new construction houses in the top notch Eanes ISD, since there have not had any new homes in Eanes recently years after the close out of Senna Hills. High quality new homes with price range in 500K to 600K will be very attractive considering houses in the nearby Eanes neighbor are way above this range.

The Lakes Edge community was expected to see first move-in ready house on the second half of 2017, and we are eagle to see how the development is going.

I went to visit Lakes Edge Community on the first day of the July, and took some pictures. As you can see, construction is underway for the roads and utilities. There is no sign of any houses, or any land/lot subdivision.
