Remember the neighborhood where you grew up?  “Back in the day”, neighborhoods were a mix of homes, apartments and multi-family buildings, where people at all different stages of their lives lived together, sharing the activity of the neighborhood and keeping an eye out for each other.  For me, that is the definition of the word, neighborhood. 

Today, on the south edge of Whitewater, a new version of the old neighborhood, called Waters Edge South, has sprouted up!  Teronomy Builders has taken a tract of land within the city limits and when complete, will form an entire neighborhood of 234 residences to include single-family homes, duplexes, apartments and condominiums.  Teronomy Builders is a local business out of Elkhorn established in 1989, when Terry Larson and his son Tony began doing finish carpentry projects and framing new homes.  Since then, son Thomas Larson after graduating  from West Point, added his skills and talent to the mix, enabling the family business to evolve into a full-service construction company specializing in the design and building of custom single-family homes and condominium planned developments.  Erika Larson is the first Larson face you’ll most likely have the pleasure to meet, as she handles the sales and design for the Whitewater project.

Erika understands that the key to homeowner happiness is finding the perfect combination of location, design and craftsmanship. To that end, Teronomy continues to develop Waters Edge South to bring quality, luxury living to Whitewater.  They take great pride in quality craftsmanship and in building each and every home as if it were their own, working with the owner every step of the way to create a home that will meet all needs and surpass expectations.

“What is so great about Waters Edge South is the whole neighborhood concept.  Someone can start in an apartment, then build and own their home and then later, when the time is right, move into a condo; all in the same neighborhood!  We offer every stage of life in a beautiful place to live and grow, just 3 minutes from Downtown Whitewater and 5 minutes from the University. The folks in our neighborhood enjoy large backyards, community green space, spacious walking and biking areas, the peacefulness of waterfront living and open countryside to the south.  It couldn’t get any more cozy and yet so beautiful!” says Erika with a big smile.

Waters Edge Apartments at Tripp Lake, opened in January 2008.  You can enjoy living in a Whitewater neighborhood where you can hike, bike and enjoy a day of relaxation at nearby Tripp Lake. Waters Edge offers 1, 2 or 3 bedroom units with private entrances, underground parking, one to two bathrooms, full size washer and dryer, central air, private storage, walk-in closets, and much, much more.

Waters Edge South is made up of single family homes and condominium buildings featuring four family units and duplex style units, some with that sought after walk-out lower level.

THE CREEKSIDE
With wonderful views of Trippe Lake, the Creekside is the perfect place to call home. These four unit ranch style condos feature spacious floor plans with full walk out lower levels - quality crafted and built for style and comfort. Finish the lower level with a media or game room.

THE BAYBREEZE
Centrally located inside the subdivision, the Baybreeze overlooks the central water feature within a serene, park-like setting. Amenities include walk-in closets, main level master suites and vaulted ceilings.

THE SPRINGBROOK
The Springbrook model condominium introduces a dynamic new floor plan. With vaulted ceilings and airy great rooms, this condo is a charming home. Overlooking the park-like grounds and wooded surroundings of Waters Edge South, the Springbrook also offers walk-in closets and attached 2 car garages.

The Single-Family Home designs have a lot to offer the distinguished home buyer. There are both Ranch style and 2-Story style Homes, with varying levels of open floor plans incorporated into the designs. Once you decide on a model of home, Erika and the Teronomy designers will work with you to personalize this home into everything you’ve ever dreamed of.  They also have a number of “Ready Homes” should you want to move in sooner than it would take to build from scratch. 

From the moment you step inside a Waters Edge condominium or single-family home, it is apparent that a great deal of thought and creativity went into the design of each plan. Check out their websites to explore the possibilities:
