          Battleground at Pine Valley, a community of 13 luxurious single family homes in scenic Manalapan will hold the Grand Opening of the new Hampton Model on Sunday, October 22nd according to Lynn Shaloub, President of HouseMart, Inc., exclusive broker for the new community. The Grand Opening event which will be held from 12pm to 4pm celebrates the beautiful country-like environment surrounding the community. Visitors are invited to enjoy refreshments and children’s activities including pumpkin painting, a moon bounce, pony rides and a clown.

          “This is a perfect time to visit Battleground at Pine Valley. The rolling farmland and wooded countryside of Manalapan are starting to show fall colors,” comments Shaloub. “Homebuyers can really get a feeling for just how beautiful this community will be. Homes at Battleground at Pine Valley occupy spacious one and one half to two acre homesites across the street from the new Charlestown Springs Golf Course.” Battleground at Pine Valley is one of four communities in the Battleground series. Battleground Woods and Battleground Ridge in Manalapan and Mallard Pond in neighboring Millstone are all communities featuring the Design 2000 collection of homes.

          Design 2000 residences feature sprawling five bedroom floorplans. According to Shaloub, homes at Battleground at Pine Valley measure up to 5,000 square feet of meticulously arranged living space highlighted by towering two story foyers with unique center staircases, private studies, enormous two story family rooms with fireplaces, gourmet center island kitchens and secondary stairways.
Many visitors to the community are particularly impressed with the elegant master bedroom suites found in Design 2000 homes. Equipped with private sitting rooms, and optional fireplaces, these palatial master suites also include magnificent master baths with garden tubs and separate stall showers as well as ample closet space.

          “Many homebuyers are pleased to learn that they may customize their Design 2000 home,” Shaloub notes. “Some families choose to add a first floor in-law or au-pair suite to their home. These expanded first floor bedroom and bath suites easily accommodate live-in child care providers, multi-generational households, and overnight guests.”

          In addition to elegant interiors, the exquisitely crafted exteriors offer abundant curb appeal. Elevations in brick, stone, stucco and color coordinated vinyl siding complement the tastes of virtually every homebuyer. Intricate details such as quoins, keystones and dramatic hip and gable rooflines further contribute to the stately character of elegant streetscapes which distinguish this community from others in Monmouth County.
