BETHLEHEM TOWNSHIP, PA \u2013 The first residential phase of Madison Farms, the mixed-use community being developed in Bethlehem Township, is now 75 percent leased, development partners The KRE Group and The Silverman Group announced today.<\/p>\n
The first phase of the project has delivered 294 rental apartments and 123,000 square feet of complementary retail space to the Lehigh Valley, with another 40,000 square feet of retail space currently under construction. Now, that strong response from residential renters has prompted the developers to launch Phase II of the project.<\/p>\n
Construction began this month on the 276 rental residences that will comprise Phase II. The full build out of Phase II is scheduled for completion in the second quarter of 2018, with the first building scheduled for completion in the second quarter of 2017.<\/p>\n
The KRE\/Silverman partnership decided to begin construction of Phase II now because of the overwhelming success of Phase I, noting that demand for the community\u2019s luxury apartments will soon outpace supply.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe leasing pace at Madison Farms continues to be very strong,\u201d said Jeremy Kaplan, Chief Operating Officer of The KRE Group. \u201cWith 75 percent of our current apartments leased and activity in our retail village booming, we believe that now is the ideal time to launch Phase II and double down on our investment in this community.\u201d<\/p>\n
The rental success of Madison Farms mirrors the success of the thriving retail village that has risen on the site, with more than a dozen shops and restaurants, including ShopRite, Starbucks and Pet Valu. Residents have a short walk to the retail village as well as to the community\u2019s clubhouse and outdoor pool, providing the type of pedestrian-friendly experience the property\u2019s developers envisioned. Pocket parks, ponds, bike paths and more are all planned for the community as well. Ultimately, the project will comprise 837 luxury residences built in multiple phases across approximately 100 acres of property.<\/p>\n
The rental residences at Madison Farms range in size from 790 to 1,375 square feet. Six floorplans are available, including both one-bedroom, one-bath and two-bedroom, two-bath designs. Prices start from $1,320.<\/p>\n
