New Homes in Navesink Community Offers Luxury Inside, Maintenance-Free Outside

Aug. 7, 2012 - PRLog -- NAVESINK, N.J. – Families purchasing a new home at D.R. Horton’s The Manors at Cottage Gate (http://www.drhorton.com/nj) in the Navesink section of Middletown get something most single-family homes for sale don’t include: freedom from lawn care and snow removal.

The elegant single-family homes here offer all of the features one would expect of a luxury home, plus exterior yard maintenance and snow removal, meaning homeowners have more time to spend with family or enjoying the amenities in the area, including on-site nature trails and the near-by beaches!

“We know that many people want a beautiful home, but they don’t want to spend the hours it takes to have the beautiful yard to go with it,” said Randy Hix, director of sales and marketing in New Jersey for D.R. Horton, the nation’s largest homebuilder.  “The Manors at Cottage Gate answers that wish.”

Hix added that the community has been popular with those who commute to New York City and Jersey City for work.

“It’s a short commute – under an hour by ferry – and homeowners get to spend their spare time with their families or enjoying the many places to in the Middletown, Red Bank areas instead of mowing their lawn,” added Hix.

The Manors at Cottage Gate is an elegant community with homes ranging in size from 2,100 square feet to 2,800 square feet.  All the homes have basements, three or four bedrooms, eat-in kitchens and a variety of exterior finishes that keep the streetscape varied and homes individualized.

The community is so popular that D. R. Horton has started construction on a handful of homes so people can move in during the summer to immediately enjoy the shore location and be settled by the time school starts in September.

One of the homes available this summer is the Provincetown, with a brick front that is reminiscent of the classic architecture found in the historical sections of Middletown.  The home features a large kitchen, center island, stainless-steel appliances and granite countertops.  The master bedroom includes a private sitting area and huge walk-in closet.  Enter this 2,899-square-foot home by stepping into the entry foyer, highlighted by its soaring two-story ceilings and curving staircase to the second floor. Visitors can walk straight through to the large family room with fireplace, or to one side, into the dining room with optional tray ceiling.

The kitchen of this home is large and set up for easy use with stainless steel appliances and a center island.  There’s a lot of space for a table and chairs in the sunshine by the windows.  A large pantry is just off the kitchen as is the convenient laundry room.

Upstairs are the four lavish bedrooms.  In the master suite, the sleeping area can be defined by the optional tray ceiling.  It sits alongside the sitting area with plenty of room for a desk or table and chairs.  The master bath has a shower and a large bathtub, as well as a linen closet and double-sink vanity.

“The Provincetown is a great home for a growing family with all the features one could hope for,” said Hix.  “It has an open, flowing floor plan and lots of standard features, but the best features are the ones you add in our design gallery that make the home reflect your lifestyle and desires.”

With five home styles to choose from, The Manors at Cottage Gate offers luxury family living close to Jersey Shore beaches, parks, scenic and historic areas, lots of shopping, fine dining, golf courses and athletic facilities.

Homes here range from the 2,102 square foot Ashbourne, which offers three bedrooms, 2½ baths and a two car garage, to the Provincetown, offering four bedrooms, 2½ baths and a two car garage in a 2,899 square foot home.  Prices here start at $459,990.

Homebuyers get to individualize their home by selecting options and upgrades that fit their lifestyle.  In addition, mortgage and title services are available to make the home buying experience as easy as possible.  More information on The Manors at Cottage Gate is available at http://www.drhorton.com/nj or by calling (732) 872-4684.
