The Latest in Lake Living

With the popularity of lake living continuously on the rise, it’s difficult to find exceptional lots for new construction on Lake Martin. But The Ridge community is changing that with the opening of its new South Ridge Harbor neighborhood. 

Located on the southernmost tip of The Ridge, this land was previously home to the Dixie Sailing Club. When the club moved further north on the lake, the property became available for additional home sites within The Ridge. And on July 11, the public will have a chance to explore this new development during “A Taste of The Ridge.”

“Each property in South Ridge Harbor has been carefully designed to offer the best floorplans and waterfront views possible for lake living, ” says Janet Price, director of marketing for Russell Lands. In addition, Russell Lands-approved architects and builders have studied each site to provide expert advice for prospective property owners considering a new lake home. 

Three homes have been completed in the new neighborhood and will be open for tours during “A Taste of The Ridge.” The event will give folks a sampling of the latest architectural designs available on the lake while also enjoying live music and exceptional food and beverages from area restaurants.

July 11: A Taste of the Ridge

4 p.m. – 7 p.m. “A Taste of the Ridge” will include a variety of delicacies for sampling. Among the many savory food samples will be specialties from Chef Rob McDaniel of SpringHouse, Chef Ban Stewart of Kowaliga Restaurant, and Chef Leo Maurelli of Ariccia Italian Trattoria & Bar of The Hotel at Auburn University. Attendees can also enjoy treats from Catherine’s Market, Wickles Pickles, Fox Point Farm, Bayou Rum, Cahaba Brewing, and other artisans, all while relaxing in furnishings from Seibels. “It’s the perfect time to come experience this new neighborhood, ” explains Janet. “And as an added bonus, the sun will be setting just as the event winds down. There’s nothing like a Lake Martin sunset at The Ridge.”
