Sellout Eminent at the Heights at Tenafly in NJ - Buyers Bidding on Last Townhomes

March 16, 2011 - PRLog -- TENAFLY, NJ– The Heights at Tenafly, one of northern New Jersey’s hottest selling, urban chic townhome collections perched high atop the Palisades just minutes from the George Washington Bridge, is approaching a sellout. According to Coldwell Banker New Homes & Condominiums, one of the nation’s largest, award winning residential brokerage firms, the sales pace has been non-stop with one home going under contract this weekend and buyers clamoring for the last two maintenance free three-bedroom, four-and-a-half bath residences with gorgeous mountain views. Prices start from $1,185,000 and all are available for immediate delivery.

“No other townhome collection in Bergen County has experienced such a tremendous sales pace and in such a short period of time,” notes Coldwell Banker New Homes & Condominiums Regional Specialist Mary Ellen Fuller. “Within a matter of months of a special Grand Opening, eight of the ten townhomes are spoken for.”

The popularity of the Heights at Tenafly is due in large part to the spacious, fully appointed luxury townhomes by Mark-Built Homes.  “For more than three generations, Mark-Built Homes has continued a family passion for building homes of enduring value and character throughout New Jersey,” states Fuller. “It is no wonder The Heights at Tenafly has received numerous accolades including the Sales & Marketing Award (SAM) for Best Townhome of the Year Over $500,000 by the New Jersey Builders Association and Mark-Built Homes was chosen as the Best Builder of the Year for Attached Home Over $500,000 from the Community Builders & Remodelers Association of New Jersey.”

Markovitz recognizes the collection’s exceptional location in Tenafly has added to its attractiveness. “The town is renowned for its boutiques, shops, and fine restaurants as well as highly rated schools, creating the perfect environment for today’s families. There is also plenty of recreation including country clubs, parks, nature preserves and historic sites. Its magnificent hills and the Palisades create wonderful views.”

Markovitz continues, “Yet the town via public transportation is within minutes to New York City.  Tenafly is also a stone’s throw from the George Washington Bridge, major highways such as the New Jersey Turnpike, Routes 1, 9 and 4, and the Palisades Parkway to whisk residents to just about anywhere in the state and other areas of New York.”

Co-Site Manager Ruella Guss of Coldwell Banker in Tenafly agrees.  “Residents continually comment that nothing can compare to the beautiful craftsmanship, the spaciousness and the details of their homes. We host many young couples, who want the custom crafted luxuries of a Manhattan penthouse, but with more space and at a much more reasonable price. They love the maintenance free living and feel the Heights at Tenafly is the best choice.”

The remaining homes provide owners with classic old world construction that is unmatched in comparable townhomes.  Guss describes, “The grandeur begins with time-honored exteriors adorned in handmade brick, architectural columns, arched garage doors, metal roofs and an abundance of windows with traditional trim.  French doors, balconies, decks and porches add to each home’s stunning character.”

“Inside,” Guss continues, “a soaring entry foyer with marble flooring, dramatic sweeping custom stairs and three-piece, raised panel molding introduces guests to the home, while the posh living room with gas fireplace and dining room with 10-foot  soffit ceilings, oak floors with walnut inlay and custom crown moldings offer the perfect setting for stylish entertaining.”

The gourmet center island kitchen is well-stocked with furniture grade wood cabinetry, custom moldings, granite countertops and Viking and SubZero appliances.  Some of the homes feature a butler’s pantry. Adjoining the kitchen and breakfast area is a spacious family room with French doors to an outer deck.

When it’s time to relax, Guss points out that owners can retreat to a lavish master bedroom suite with nine-foot soffit ceilings in the spacious bedroom area.  Co-Site Manager Donnie Belgiovine of Coldwell Banker in Tenafly explains, “A sitting room with a gas fireplace creates a wonderful ambiance along with the tiled bath which includes dual vanities, a platform whirlpool and a large glass enclosed shower with soothing multiple shower heads and a convenient seat.  Outside the bath are two custom walk-in closets to add to the convenience.”  Two additional bedroom suites with full baths complete the upper level.

One of the most admired areas of each home is the magnificent lower level recreation room with glass sliders to an outer paver terrace.  Belgiovine points out that many owners customize this space into a media center, home office or even a fourth bedroom with full bath.  She adds, “In order to enjoy the ease of living on all levels, each home includes a private elevator.”

Prospective townhome buyers, who are searching for a custom crafted Manhattan-style luxury townhome just minutes from the City, should hurry to The Heights at Tenafly.  Open Houses are every Saturday and Sunday from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. or by appointment.  For additional information or to make an appointment, please contact Co-Site Managers Ruella Guss and Donnie Belgiovine of Coldwell Banker in Tenafly at the Sales Center at (201) 421-9557 or visit www.cbnewhomesandcondos.com or www.heightsattenafly.com.
