Alpine Ridge Delivers New Collection of Luxury Townhomes

Expansive Townhomes with Upscale Finishes and Appointments Situated Just Minutes from Downtown Westfield

MOUNTAINSIDE, NJ – Sales are underway at Alpine Ridge, an intimate new enclave of just 30 luxury townhomes for 55+ home buyers in the upscale Union County borough of Mountainside, NJ.

Nestled between the vibrant downtowns of Westfield and Summit and easily accessible to New York City via NJ TRANSIT, Alpine Ridge offers home buyers the opportunity to lead a lifestyle of comfort and luxury in an ultra-convenient location. Each design-driven, two- and three-bedroom townhome features expansive living spaces with upscale finishes and appointments that rival those found in many custom single-family homes, yet provides a sought-after low-maintenance lifestyle.

That means more free time for entertaining guests, pursuing passions, indulging in hobbies, or exploring the impressive array of local restaurants, boutique shops, golf courses, and cultural attractions that are just minutes from the community.

With construction of the boutique collection of homes now completed, immediate occupancy is available. However, buyers still have the opportunity to personalize their homes by selecting from a wide array of options and finishes.

“Alpine Ridge at Mountainside was designed for discerning homebuyers who are looking for upscale, easier-to-manage residences in a location that offers them a vibrant lifestyle experience,” said Robyn Tokar, Sales Manager at Housemart, which was tapped by developer Alpine Ridge, LLC as the community’s exclusive sales agent. “The homes have been meticulously crafted for style and function, with open floorplans, designer finishes and appointments, first-floor master suites and full basements for additional entertaining and storage space.”

Four distinctive home designs have been created for Alpine Ridge ranging in size from 2,429 to 2,740 square feet of living space at introductory prices starting at $699,900. The designs feature two or three bedrooms with a plush master suite on the first floor, a two-car garage and a full unfinished basement.

Found throughout the homes are gourmet kitchens with furniture-quality 42-inch cabinets and crown molding, granite or quartz countertops, large center islands and tile backsplash. A high-end, energy-efficient appliance package includes a self-cleaning oven, microwave, gas range, wet bar and wine refrigerator, per plan.

Master baths, second baths and powder rooms are similarly well-appointed, with granite countertops, furniture-quality cabinetry and vanities, oversized showers with seamless shower doors.

Each home also features hardwood floors throughout the first floor, wall-to-wall carpeting in the second-story lofts and bedrooms, and ceramic tiles in the baths and powder room. Custom oak stair railings are also included, as well as gas direct-vent fireplaces, available per plan. All ceilings are 9’ or higher.

Enhancing the appeal of the community’s homes are their attractive exteriors, featuring partial stone fronts, maintenance-free Hardy plank siding, and designer fiberglass front doors. All homes also include rear patios for outdoor living and al fresco dining.

Alpine Ridge at Mountainside’s location off Route 22 near both downtown Westfield and Summit means residents of the community are always just a short car ride away from an array of gourmet restaurants, casual bistros, espresso bars, farmers markets, shops, cultural attractions and parks. Mountainside itself is home to many favorite restaurants, a movie theater, and the Trailside Nature & Science Center, a wonderful launching point for a hike through the Watchung Reservation.

A number of public and private golf courses are nearby, including the Echo Lake Country Club just three miles away and the Baltusrol Golf Club, home to major PGA tournaments, just five miles away. Destinations such as the Mall at Short Hills, the Paper Mill Playhouse, the New Jersey Performing Arts Center and the Prudential Center are all easily accessible. Residents can also rent a paddle boat, picnic by the lake, visit the dog park, enjoy a free summer concert, or simply take an afternoon stroll at scenic Echo Lake Park, located less than two miles from the community.

For those looking to commute for work or pleasure to New York City -- located about 23 miles away – convenient NJ TRANSIT rail service is available from Westfield and Summit, while NJ TRANSIT bus service is located right across the street from the community.
