Comfort, privacy, style and plenty of room for a growing family may seem like a tall order for many aspiring homebuyers, but at The Grand at Berkeley all of that and more is available at pre-construction prices with no lot premiums.
Builder Anthony Garofalo, president of Diamond Developers, maintains that building family friendly homes that are priced within the reach of today’s homebuyers is vital to the quality of life in New Jersey.
“Many of us grew up in traditional colonial style homes, with big back yards and basement recreation rooms,” Garofalo notes. “Our children deserve the kind of environment where family members can both interact and have privacy.”
Garofalo’s company, Diamond Developers, is currently building The Grand at Berkeley, a community of 42 single-family homes set on one-third acre homesites. Homes range from 2,300 to 2,900 square feet and feature four bedrooms, either two and one-half or three and one-half baths and the option to add a finished basement. Prices start at $399,900.
“From our 2,300 square foot Ash model to our 2,900 square foot Dogwood design, homes at The Grande allow family members to enjoy the common areas of the home and also retreat to the solitude of a spacious master bedroom and bath suite, a large secondary bedroom or a private study.”
Flowing floorplans that both enhance everyday living and facilitate entertaining guests characterize homes at the community. Families with children will appreciate roomy breakfast nooks and kitchens that overlook the family room so that parents preparing meals can observe young children at play. As children grow, the finished basement option makes a perfect spot for teenagers and their friends to gather without disturbing the household routine.
The largest home at The Grand, the Dogwood also includes a private study off the main foyer. The study is ideal for a home office, hobby room or library.
Spacious bedrooms and baths also contribute to family living. Master bedroom and bath suites pamper busy couples with separate soaking tubs and stall showers, double sink vanities and ample closet space. Sizeable secondary bedrooms are also designed for relaxation and convenience. This is especially true of the Cherry model, which features a princess suite with a private bath and two additional bedrooms joined by a “Jack and Jill” bathroom.
In addition to elegant floor plans, homes at the Grand are distinguished by striking exteriors in color-coordinated vinyl siding and partial stone. Buyers may also choose traditional front porch elevations. Volume space, upscale standard features and quality construction materials such as TJI “silent floor” systems that eliminate squeaks and protect the integrity of flooring surfaces add to the value of these impressive homes as do energy efficient vinyl insulated low “e” windows and two-zone heating and air conditioning systems.
“Berkeley Township is a wonderful place to live and we wanted to build homes that would complement this terrific location,” says Garofalo. “Excellent schools, nearby parks, beaches, boardwalks and marinas and an exciting shore lifestyle are all more enjoyable when you have a well designed and well built home in which to live.”
