Two units will have an additional option of being constructed as an additional bedroom or as an efficiency-type \u201cin-law\u201d or guest apartment.<\/p>\n<p>The townhomes will be three stories, with entrances through the garage level; a second-floor living, dining and kitchen area; and bedrooms on the third floor. The garages will be both one-and two-car. According to Witt, buyers will be able to choose from numerous amenities, working with Witt Construction\u2019s in-house designer and customizing the homes to their liking.<\/p>\n<p>The homes will be characterized by high ceilings, large double-glazed windows, open floor plans and signature detailing that has won Witt many awards over the years.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Each townhome will come with fireplaces and spacious second-floor porches as standard, with optional built-ins and other amenities available, he said.<\/p>\n<p>The project had originally been part of a special-use permit approved for construction of condos.

The multi-functional community development will offer a mix of amenities as well as opportunities for commercial use as the project continues.<\/p>\n<p>Witt envisions it as a multi-generational and pet-friendly community that offers a combination of urban living with the benefits of a community neighborhood. He said its proximity to Northway Exit 15 makes it a desirable location for people who work outside of Saratoga Springs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Maureen Werther Witt Construction expects to break ground soon and begin construction of Excelsior Park Townhomes located at 21-25 Whistler Court.
