Edgewater, FL Condos for Sale

Edgewater is a community true to its name. The waters of the Indian River run along its eastern edge, serving as the lifeblood of the central Florida city. "There is no direct access to the ocean from Edgewater, which is why the river plays such a big role," says local broker Wendy Schwoerer, owner of Land and Sea Realty. "Locals have full access to boating, fishing, water sports and many other outdoor activities." Residents head to New Smyrna Beach to hit the shore. The city is primarily residential, so it stays relatively quiet compared to nearby bigger cities like New Smyrna Beach and Daytona Beach. Edgewater's leading industries include retail trade, construction and boat manufacturing. According to Team Volusia Economic Development, Boston Whalers, Everglades Boats, and EdgeWater Power Boats are some of the city's largest employers. The Edgewater City Council and City Manager have several plans for the town. The Deering Park North plan aims to bring thousands of homes and new office space to Edgewater, and the Deering Park Center will bring new hotels, shopping and restaurants. Most of the city's housing was built toward the tail-end of the 20th century in subdivisions
