STATISTICS
96 Townhouse, 77 Condo, 37 Single-family Units
7.75 Acres
The 7.75 acre site of a former factory is transformed into an upscale Victorian-style residential complex detailed with cobblestone streets and walks, antique cast-iron street lights, wrought-iron fencing and entry gates, brick and stone pillars, and landscaped parkways. Distinctive environments are created by the arrangement of the homes in three clusters anchored by three private lanes that form plaza courtyards. The development’s twelve different housing unit configurations, including townhouses, condominiums and single-family homes, are uniquely articulated in limestone, brick, copper and slate shingle, combine to produce a harmonious yet varied sequence of living spaces.
