    Fortune Ridge at Southeast, a “new” old-fashioned neighborhood of 103 single-family homes, is now offering for sale an exciting collection of architect-designed homes with exceptional neighborhood amenities in a spectacular wooded country setting.

    Located on 3/4-acre sites, the spaciously designed traditional 2,750 to 3,400 square foot new homes feature gracious exteriors that open to bright flowing contemporary interiors with state-of-the-art gourmet island kitchens and spacious master suites. Designs include homes with master suites upstairs and down. All have both formal and informal living spaces and at least four bedrooms.

    Each distinctive home style features three different elevations and a wide palette of country colors for siding, trim and roofs. In addition, homes can be enhanced with finished bonus spaces, screen or sunrooms, 3-car garages, finished garden levels, and an exciting selection of designer finish materials. The homes feature a variety of unique and interesting designs including a center hall with master down, a Wii room off the family room, a mid-level library design and a Florida style home with a rear grand master down.

    Value priced from $699,900 to the mid $800,000’s, the homes at Fortune Ridge at Southeast would sell for at least a half a million more just minutes away in Westchester.

    Fortune Ridge at Southeast is the ideal community for families who are looking for more home and a lifestyle all in one place as well as empty-nesters looking to downsize but stay close to friends and family. Residents of Fortune Ridge at Southeast will enjoy an exceptional lifestyle at “The Club at the Ridge” a multi-generational amenity featuring a pool and pavilion, a splash fountain and playground, tennis and sports courts, and an easy-to manage clubhouse with a neighborhood gathering room, a catering kitchen and a fitness center with a visible children’s playroom.

    Nestled in a wooded country setting at the Putnam/Westchester county line, more than two-thirds of the approximately 300-acre property will remain “forever green” so most home sites open to conservation space. Fortune Ridge’s state-of-the-art Sales and Design Center is located on the site in a magnificent stone castle that was once the estate of Max Dreyfus, the legendary music publisher whose clientele included the likes of George Gershwin, Jerome Kern, Richard Rogers and Cole Porter.

    Fortune Ridge is being developed by Fortune Home Builders, one of the foremost builders of custom homes in Westchester with more than two decades of experience throughout the county.  The company’s portfolio of fine homes includes Scarsdale Manor in Scarsdale, Boulder Pines in Katonah and Hardscrabble Lake in Chappaqua. The company is renowned for its high quality construction and an extraordinary dedication to customer service.
     
    “We are very excited to debut this extraordinary new residential neighborhood at a time when there is a great deal of pent-up demand for something truly new — well-priced well-designed single-family homes on a spectacular country site,” said Chris Munch, Vice President of Fortune Home Builders. “At Fortune Ridge, we offer buyers the advantages of a hands-on, locally-based homebuilder where the buyers have a wide array of choices and can truly personalize their homes. In addition, we bring our unique custom home experience, knowledge and level of service to the merchant built sector of the home building market,” he added.

    At a time when some homebuilders are unable to secure financing for their projects, Fortune Home Builders brings the financial strength and stability of being owned by a well-known private Wall Street investment company. ” Fortune Home Builders is a privately held business. We like to say we are owned by an old-line Wall Street family but not by Wall Street.  The commitment of our owner is clear here as Fortune Ridge has been almost 20 years in the making,” said Mr. Munch.

    Located in the well-respected Brewster school district on the Putnam/Westchester border, Fortune Ridge offers convenient access to major highways and Metro-North Railroad’s Harlem Line.  Fortune Ridge is located at 150 Deans Corner Road, just off Rte 22 at Croton Reservoir in Brewster, NY.  From Rte 684 North Exit 8 Hardscrabble Road make a left over the Bridge to Rte 22 to Croton Falls. Follow Rte 22 North to the reservoir. Turn Right at Deans Corner Rd. Fortune Ridge is ahead on the left.
