Raven Crest

Raven Crest Homes for Sale – Bradenton, Florida 34212

Raven Crest is one of the new communities developed as national builders scrambled for prime locations in East Manatee amidst a strong pickup of the housing market around 2015. It is located on the western edge of Upper Manatee River Road, which is already the domain of some older, well-established Bradenton residential developments.

Raven Crest’s site is flanked by two prominent golf communities which count as popular destinations for searchers of Bradenton homes for sale. This newer community spreads east of the Waterlefe Golf & River Club, while to the south of Raven Crest is the Links at Greenfield Plantation as well as the sprawling acreage of the neighborhoods of Greyhawk Landing.

Raven Crest is much smaller compared with its neighboring developments, as it consists of just 38 residential lots. Nonetheless, Raven Crest homes for sale are as desirable as those in its nearby communities, as its builder ranks amongst the best and biggest in the U.S.

The Green Pride of Meritage

Raven Crest’s developer is Meritage Homes, a multi-awarded Scottsdale, Arizona-based builder whose shares are listed in the New York Stock Exchange. This company, founded in 1985, has built over 90,000 homes in its history of more than 30 years. It operates across the Western, Southern and Southeastern U.S., providing single family homes in various market segments including first-time, move-up, active adult and luxury home buyers.

At Raven Crest, Meritage also brings in its leadership for building energy-efficient homes as well as its reputation of providing buyers with distinctive and stylish residences of high quality construction. Notably, one of the awards that this builder has received is the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s ENERGY STAR Partner of the Year for Sustained Excellence Award. Meritage was the recipient of this award for innovation and industry leadership in energy efficient homebuilding in 2013, 2014, 2015 and 2016.

This certified green home builder started offering Raven Crest homes for sale during the 2014 third quarter, and soon, this community was quickly built out.

Improved Local Infrastructures

These Raven Crest homes for sale come in two- or three-story designs featuring floor areas measuring between 2,000 and 3,400 square feet designed with four to five bedrooms and up to four baths.

The construction of this bridge also included various improvements on the Upper Manatee River Road which directly benefited the homes for sale at Raven Crest.
