Closings will begin in late August at 55 Melrose, allowing buyers to start enjoying their new luxury condominium homes within the Pier Village oceanfront community in Long Branch before the end of summer.
The important milestone follows an exceptional period of sales activity at 55 Melrose, resulting in 50 percent of the 44 modern condominium residences sold in just the first 12 weeks, according to Ironstate Development Company, which developed Pier Village, the premier Jersey Shore lifestyle destination featuring upscale residences, restaurants and retail.
The limited offering of homes range from 766 to 1,648 square feet of living space and include one-bedroom homes priced from $310,000, two-bedroom homes priced from $445,000 and three-bedroom residences with a den priced from $709,000. Immediate occupancy is available.
“55 Melrose represents the first ownership opportunities at Pier Village, and the pent-up demand from both existing renters who were already enjoying the community’s desirable seaside lifestyle and those from throughout the region who have long thought about owning a full or parttime residence at the Jersey Shore is translating to sales,” notes Greg Russo, a principal of Ironstate Development. “Our buyers range from empty-nesters to single professionals who love the vibrant social nature of the community to families looking for a second home in an oceanfront setting.”
The new condominium residences at 55 Melrose offer spacious floor plans and include such designer features and appointments as oak hardwood flooring in the living areas, plush Berber carpeting in the bedrooms, and gourmet kitchens with custom wood white shaker cabinets, Caesarstone countertops, modern stain glass backsplashes and state-of-the-art stainless steel Frigidaire Gallery appliances. Spa-like baths are adorned with Silestone countertops, custom wood white shaker cabinets and wood framed mirrors, ceramic tile floors and contemporary Kohler undermounted sinks and faucets. All residences also include individual washer and dryer and desirable outdoor living space.
In addition to on-site parking and access to the Pier Village outdoor pool and residents’ lounge with billiards and plasma TV, buyers at 55 Melrose will receive a complimentary two-year gym membership to the Pier Village Gold’s Gym, and a complimentary two-year membership to Le Club, Pier Village’s members-only, European-inspired beach club. Le Club features a full-service beach experience including a private beach area adorned with Palm trees and lined with spacious cabanas, provision of lounge chairs, day beds and plush towels; food and beverage service on the beach provided by gourmet braserie, Avenue; and a rooftop pool and sun deck boasting panoramic vistas of the ocean.
Pier Village also offers more than 100,000 square feet of boutique shops and restaurants, a boardwalk and expansive beach, oceanfront dining and an outdoor festival plaza that hosts year-round events. Travel & Leisure Magazine named it one of the “20 Greatest American Beaches” in 2007 and the community was again honored in 2009 with the New Jersey Governor’s Tourism Award.
“For those who are fond of the Jersey Shore, 55 Melrose offers modern residences, direct access to extraordinary lifestyle amenities and an unbeatable location in the heart of a thriving, family-oriented oceanfront community,” notes Jacqueline Urgo, president of The Marketing Directors, the building’s exclusive marketing and sales agent. “With prices starting in the low $300,000s, 55 Melrose also represents unparalleled value considering our prime location and beautifully designed product.”
