New townhomes in Little Silver attracting buyers from rural Monmouth

Carriage Gate at Little Silver is the first community to offer newly constructed luxury townhomes in Little Silver in over two decades. Not surprisingly, demand has been strong for the new community from esteemed builder, Kalian Companies. An intimate, limited-edition collection of elegant townhomes set in one of Monmouth County’s most desirable locations, Carriage Gate offers a rare level of luxury and convenience that is appealing to a variety of buyers — including local residents who are interested in moving out of more rural Monmouth areas to be closer to Red Bank, Rumson and the Jersey Shore. Mazin Kalian, president of Kalian Companies, commented on the community’s strong appeal for this type of buyer. “Carriage Gate presents a rare and very attractive opportunity for someone who may be living in Monmouth, but ready to scale down from a larger home to something new, luxurious, and maintenance free,” Kalian said. “They know the area, they know how much they love Red Bank, the shore — and they want to be closer, especially during the summer months, when this area is bursting with activity. You couldn’t ask for a better location than Carriage

Gate. We’re only five minutes or one train stop from Red Bank, with all of its outdoor cafés, great restaurants and entertainment. We’re close to Rumson, to some of Monmouth County’s best parks, and of course, just a short drive from the Jersey Shore.”

According to Kalian, the new community has also appealed strongly to young professionals living in more urban centers of New Jersey like Hoboken or Jersey City, and particularly young couples ready for more space, ready for a more suburban lifestyle, and ready to stop renting and finally purchase their own home.

Designed in a charming Shore Colonial architectural style, with stone and shake siding, the two-story homes at Carriage Gate range in size from 2,378 to 2,960 square feet of living space, plus full basements and two-car garages. Homes feature three bedrooms, including expansive master suites and master baths, two-and-a-half bathrooms, gourmet granite kitchens, wood flooring, private outdoor living spaces, and paver courtyard driveways. The community itself is distinguished by beautiful landscaping with Belgian block curbing, sidewalks and decorative lighting, with an impressive grand stone pillar entryway to welcome homeowners and visitors. Of course, homeowners will enjoy the ease of townhome living, with its low-maintenance lifestyle. Pricing begins at $625,000, surprisingly reasonable for this kind of luxury in Little Silver.

Living in Little Silver, Carriage Gate residents can truly enjoy a lifestyle like nowhere else. The community is directly across from the Little Silver train station, which allows for an easy commute into Manhattan or anywhere in New Jersey. The area is known for its beautiful, large homes and proximity to so many recreational, cultural, shopping and entertainment destinations, as Kalian noted, including downtown Red Bank, with its appealing mix of fine dining, boutiques, stores, shops and entertainment venues. Some of New Jersey’s finest beaches and popular Monmouth County parks are less than five miles away. And The Grove at Shrewsbury, a popular upscale shopping center, is less than three miles from the community.
