Homebuyers Find 'Perfection" At Ocean Breeze

STAFFORD TWP., NJ€”On a leisurely drive through Southern Ocean County in search of the ideal active adult community, little did Louis and Mary Ferraro realize that their unplanned arrival at Paramount Escapes Ocean Breeze in Stafford Township would soon transform their lives.

"We literally stumbled onto this community when we noticed the sales center off of Route 72," recalls Mary Ferrara, who along with her husband, Louis, look forward to enjoying this unique Paramount Homes community. "In our travels, we explored new neighborhoods as far south as Smithville in Atlantic County and found that Ocean Breeze offered the perfect combination of spaciousness and low maintenance we were looking for. We also wanted convenient access to the ocean, and we knew from friends in the area that Long Beach Island was only 10 minutes away."

Currently residing in Wayne, Passaic County, in a large 5-bedroom home, the Ferrara's refused to compromise comfortable living space for low maintenance. They purchased the Monte Carlo, one of three available designs and, at over 3,000 sq. ft., was perfect for their needs. "The Monte Carlo was exactly what we wanted because the floor plan was much more like a traditional single-family home than the designs at other communities," she explained. "It is very impressive, yet not overpowering. We love the large center island kitchen, the great room, the downstairs owner's suite and volume ceilings in the dining room and the foyer. Everything we need is on the spacious lower level, including a second bedroom with its own full bath."

The expansive Monte Carlo also features a standard loft on the second floor and space for an additional bedroom and bath, which the FerraraÕs opted to utilize. "With three large bedrooms and three full bathrooms, our home has more than enough room and amenities to accommodate visits from friends, family and grandchildren," said Mary. "In fact, the entire floor plan was so right for us that we purchased well before the builder had begun construction on the model homes."

The couple also anticipates meeting newfound friends at the community clubhouse and grounds. According to Paramount Homes, the 16,000 sq. ft. clubhouse will also feature a Grand Foyer with double-sided fireplace, fitness center, men's and women's lockers, library/media room, a dance studio, a catering kitchen, an outdoor and indoor pool and spa area and a concierge.

A secure, gated community, Paramount Escapes Ocean Breeze is located within minutes of two golf courses, Southern Ocean County Hospital and a variety of shopping and dining opportunities.
