The New Jersey shore has become more than just a summertime vacation destination for people seeking escape from the sweltering cities of northern New Jersey and New York. Today, communities like The Grand at Berkeley are providing year-round homes for growing families affordably priced from $399,900.
“The beaches, boardwalks, parks and marinas have always been a magnet for vacationers,” explains Anthony Garofalo, president of Diamond Developers. “ But today with improved roads for easier commuting, the movement of businesses out of the northern cities and advances in internet technology that allow many people to work from home, families are discovering that they can enjoy shore living 365 days a year instead of just visiting or a week or two in summer.”
Garofalo points out that Ocean County is the fastest growing county in the Garden State. In the past years Ocean County was a haven for active adults who wished to retire and take advantage the area’s low cost of living. Now excellent schools and recreational facilities along with moderately priced homes are drawing younger families to the region.
“Whether you have children at home or you’re an empty nester, you can buy a spacious four bedroom home at The Grand and enjoy everything the shore has to offer,” he adds.
Homeowners at The Grand will find it easy to travel around the state thanks to the community’s central location near the Garden State Parkway, Route 37 and Route 9. Close to home, residents will find two sprawling state parks, Double Trouble State Park and Island Beach State Park. Double Trouble State Park provides nature trails, hiking, horseback riding and biking trails, canoeing and kayaking facilities while Island Beach State Park gives visitors the chance to spend a day at the beach, go swimming, boating, fishing, crabbing or simply relax in sun. Nearby Seaside Heights is known for ocean beaches and miles of boardwalk rides, food stands and other attractions. Also close by are many quaint shops, restaurants, theaters and major shopping centers located in downtown Toms River and along Route 37.
Golfers too will love life at The Grand. Ocean County boasts 16 public and private golf courses including the public courses at Cedar Creek in Bayville and Bey Lea in Toms River.
“Besides shore amenities, home shoppers will discover that they can own a beautiful home that also represents outstanding value at The Grande,” says Garofalo. “Right now buyers can take advantage of our pre-construction prices and buy homes on one of our best homesites without paying lot premiums.”
Homes at The Grand range from 2,300 sq. ft. to 2,900 sq. ft. and are set on one-third-acre homesites. Buyers may choose from front elevations in either color-coordinated vinyl, partial stone, partial brick or traditional front porch styles. All homes feature four bedrooms, a minimum of two and one baths and a long list of upscale standard features.
Interested buyers may visit The Grand Daily from 10:00 Am to 6:00 PM. Information is also posted on the web at www.diamonddevelopersnj/thegrande.com
