FRANKLIN (Somerset) Premier Development has made several recent announcements at Reserve North at Canal Walk as the single-family active-adult neighborhood enters the final stages of its sales program.

Most importantly, the initial residents in the current housing phase at Reserve North have moved into their brand new two-story homes and are now enjoying the amenity-filled lifestyle that has made this community so attractive to those aged 55 and older.

“One of the aspects that separates Reserve North is its location in a well-established community where the full complement of social and recreational components are complete,” said Sales Associate Marty Egan. “This means homeowners can immediately begin taking part in a wealth of activities as soon as they move in. They appreciate this even more during the colder winter months where they can take pleasure in our 32,000 square-foot, state-of-the-art clubhouse – the Premier Club.” 

Only a limited number of single-family homes remain available, all with outstanding private locations at Reserve North. They are the the final 5 percent of new singlefamily residences to be offered at the Canal Walk active adult community in Somerset County’s Franklin Township. They includes a select number of quick move-in homes with occupancy dates four to five months after signing a contract. 

These residences provide the best of both worlds — a new-construction home and the opportunity to add a selection of personal finishes. 

Residences at Reserve North are priced from $438,900 and provide from 2,248 to 2,779 square feet of living space. Standard upscale features include 9-foot first-floor ceilings, hardwood flooring, gas fireplaces and large eat-in kitchens with 42-inch cabinets, granite countertops and a full GE appliance package, including a self-cleaning range, space-saver microwave, dishwasher, refrigerator and washer and dryer. 

First-floor master bedroom suites include tray ceilings and a master bath with a soaking tub and separate shower with built-in seat. The homes also include plenty of storage space. 

Single family homes at Reserve North are New Jersey Energy Efficient (Tier 1) which significantly lowers monthly gas and electric bills. Construction is also underway on a one-of-a-kind custom built single-family home at Reserve North. The three-bedroom residence – the Geneva – will offer a special and unique opportunity for estate-style living at the community. The 3,291 square-foot home boasts three-and-a-half baths, a private master bedroom/ bathroom wing with a very large walk-in closet, a spacious eat-in kitchen with island and walk-in pantry, a bright two-story family room and a large bonus storage area upstairs. 

“Our homeowners are heavily engaged in this community with more than 42 clubs and groups already formed and running,” Egan said. “We also have full-time activities and social directors responsible for organizing and planning events and trips to exciting destinations such as Atlantic City, Mohegan Sun, historic Cape May, Yankees and Mets games, Broadway shows and much more. Living at Canal Walk is like being on vacation full-time with so much to do steps from your front door and excursions to popular spots nearby.” 

The community is a short trip from Interstates 287 and 78, as well as routes 22 and 202/206, offering easy access to major highways such as the Garden State Parkway and the New Jersey Turnpike. This allows children and grandchildren to visit easily.
