A seasoned expert in the multifamily real estate industry since 1996, Carmel Partners understands the fundamental components for enhancing property value. Approaching each project with a vertically integrated platform, Carmel Partners finds consistent success through their first-rate amenity packages, particularly in Los Angeles. Putting this competency on display is ‘Linea,’ a West L.A. apartment complex offering a rooftop pool terrace, fully-equipped fitness center, coworking lounge, 7,800-square-foot park and more. Also captivating L.A. residents through an unmatched amenity package is VOX, a luxury apartment destination with 10,000-square-feet of indoor and outdoor amenities.
Applying this amenity-focused perspective beyond L.A., Carmel Partners recently reimagined suburban living in Plainsboro, New Jersey, through the renovation of Hunters Glen apartment community. Located at 1109 Hunters Glen Drive, this 53-acre garden style community was built in 1978 and is comprised of 61 individual residential structures.
With a vision to introduce a modern interior amenity space at Hunters Glen, Carmel Partners designed and developed a centrally-located clubhouse to update the amenity package and encourage a social atmosphere. The 13,000-square-foot clubhouse opened in May of 2021 and houses a full fitness center, coworking lounge, children’s room, game room, leasing office and rentable space, all in a two-story, standalone structure. An amenity on par with new apartment developments in nearby New Jersey cities, the clubhouse allows residents to experience downtown-style amenities, from the solace of the suburbs. Residents enjoy a generous array of indoor amenities all in one building, a luxury that cannot be found in many other garden-style apartments in this neighborhood.
Hunters Glen offers several levels of interior apartment features across its 896 units, providing Carmel Partners the unique ability to attract residents with a range of price points in a singular community. The Collection offers the highest level of upgrades including new exterior façade and open kitchen floorplans, elevated with solid granite countertops, contemporary cabinets and stainless steel appliances. Keeping budget-conscious residents in mind, Carmel Partners updated a second portion of units on a reduced scale, while a third level of classic units complete the mix. The three apartment offerings provide a range of options for apartment hunters.
Carmel Partners also renovated all three pools and improved landscaping through the major throughways of Hunters Glen, creating a charming park-like setting with sundecks overlooking contemporary landscaping and meandering tour paths. Beyond its grounds, residents may explore The Meadows at Middlesex public golf course and Morris Davison Park, which includes a playground, volleyball courts, basketball courts, baseball diamond and secluded walking trails. Venturing 20-minutes west of the property, residents also find downtown Princeton, a historic city brimming with restaurants and shops.
Bringing over 25-years of experience, Carmel Partners holds a reputation for its entrepreneurial approach to development, prominently displayed in thoughtful amenity design which gives properties a competitive edge. The firm’s unparalleled standard is made visible at Hunters Glen, where revitalizing updates bring a modern farmhouse amenity design style to Plainsboro living. With such successful enhancements at Hunters Glen, Carmel Partners envisions a new model that incorporates the best of suburban and downtown living, all in one appealing property.
