K. Hovnanian's Four Seasons at Chester

Independent Assessment

Four Seasons at Chester was confirmed as a genuine, mature K. Hovnanian 55+ townhome community with consistent multi-source agreement on its 120-home count, 2000-2002 construction window, and four floor plans (2,195-2,980 sq ft). As a community built and sold out roughly two decades ago, all current purchases are resale, and a specific current HOA fee or price range was not independently confirmed — buyers should request both directly from the community association and a local agent. No on-site golf course was confirmed.

Who May Find This Community Appealing

Buyers wanting a smaller, well-established K. Hovnanian 55+ townhome community (120 homes) with larger floor plans (up to 2,980 sq ft), first-floor primary suites, and a quiet Morris County setting among Chester's rolling hills are a strong fit for Four Seasons at Chester. Its proximity to Northern New Jersey's parks, museums, and theaters also suits buyers who want easy access to cultural attractions.

Homes, Builders & Development History

K. Hovnanian built Four Seasons at Chester between 2000 and 2002, producing 120 low-maintenance townhomes across four floor plans ranging from 2,195 to 2,980 square feet. Homes feature two or three bedrooms, two-and-a-half bathrooms, attached two-car garages, spacious primary suites, and (in most models) first-floor primary suites and walkout basements. The community is now fully sold out and built out, with all current purchases being resale.

Current Pricing & Market Positioning

A specific current price range for Four Seasons at Chester was not independently confirmed. As a mature, fully sold-out K. Hovnanian community with larger-than-average floor plans (up to 2,980 sq ft) in a desirable rural Morris County setting, it likely commands pricing at the mid-to-upper end of the county's 55+ resale market, but buyers should request current closed comparables from a local agent.

New Construction vs. Resale Considerations

Four Seasons at Chester is fully sold out and built out, so all current purchases are resale. Buyers should request the community association's current financials, reserve study, and governing-document package, along with a full independent inspection, before purchasing — particularly given the community's age since its 2000-2002 construction window.

Taxes, Insurance & Special Assessments

Homes at Four Seasons at Chester are conventionally deeded townhome properties subject to Chester Township and Morris County property tax administration. Buyers should confirm current tax figures directly with the Morris County Tax Assessor's office and request the community association's current financials and reserve study before purchasing.

Community Layout & Lifestyle

Four Seasons at Chester offers a quiet, low-maintenance 55+ townhome lifestyle in a comparatively small, mature 120-home community, set among the rolling hills of Chester Township in western Morris County. The clubhouse, pool, and pond-side walking trails support a socially active but unhurried pace, distinct from the larger resort-style developments found in Ocean and Middlesex counties.

Shopping, Healthcare & Airport Access

Four Seasons at Chester is located in Chester, Morris County, in a rural setting within reach of Route 206 and Interstate 78, placing it within commuting range of Morristown and the broader Route 78 corridor while remaining close to Northern New Jersey's parks, museums, and theaters.

Age Qualification & Material Ownership Restrictions

Four Seasons at Chester is consistently described by secondary sources as an active-adult 55+ community. The community's own recorded governing-document age-restriction language was not independently reviewed, so buyers should confirm the community's actual current age-verification and occupancy-restriction standard directly with the community association. As with other New Jersey communities in this directory, New Jersey's *NJ Realtors v. Township of Berkeley* (App. Div. 2024) ruling concerned municipal restrictions on property ownership by age, not a private association's right to restrict occupancy, and should not be read as calling this community's own private age-restriction covenants into question.

Tradeoffs & Limitations

Because Four Seasons at Chester sold out and completed construction in 2002, all purchases are resale, and buyers should expect homes to reflect roughly two decades of aging systems and finishes unless previously renovated. No on-site golf course was confirmed for this community, and its more rural Chester location may mean a longer drive to some shopping and medical services than communities closer to major Morris County commercial corridors.

Comparison With Nearby Communities

Four Seasons at Chester shares the K. Hovnanian Four Seasons brand with Four Seasons at Great Notch in Woodland Park and Four Seasons at Wayne, giving buyers a shared-brand comparison point across Morris and Passaic counties. Within Morris County, it sits alongside Toll Brothers' Regency at Denville and Lennar's Greenbriar at Fox Ridge, distinguished by its smaller scale (120 homes), larger floor plans, and more rural Chester setting.
