Four Seasons at Manalapan Crossing

Independent Assessment

Four Seasons at Manalapan Crossing was confirmed as a genuine, actively selling K. Hovnanian 55+ community with strong multi-source agreement on its 280-home, three-phase plan, 2023 establishment, and $390/month HOA fee. An alternate establishment year of 2021 was also reported, but secondary sources consistently give 2023, which is treated here as the better-supported figure. Because the community is still selling into its later phases as of the most recent review, buyers should expect ongoing construction activity and phased amenity delivery typical of a new K. Hovnanian Four Seasons community rather than a fully mature, built-out environment.

Who May Find This Community Appealing

Buyers seeking brand-new construction with modern floor plans, designer-curated finish packages, and a full amenity package from the outset are a strong fit for Four Seasons at Manalapan Crossing. Its still-selling status also suits buyers who want to select a specific lot, model, and finish package rather than choosing from existing resale inventory.

Homes, Builders & Development History

Four Seasons at Manalapan Crossing was established by K. Hovnanian Homes in 2023 as one of its Four Seasons-branded 55+ communities, planned for 280 single-family homes across three construction phases in Manalapan Township. The community offers six models with a choice of four designer-curated interior finish packages (Loft, Farmhouse, Classic, Elements), with floor plans up to approximately 3,092 square feet and up to four bedrooms. As of the last update, the community was still actively selling, with some sources describing it as 'now pre-selling' on later phases.

Current Pricing & Market Positioning

Reported home prices at Four Seasons at Manalapan Crossing range roughly from $300,000 to $800,000, spanning a wide range of models and phases; builder promotions reported at points during sales (up to $100,000 off select quick move-in homes) suggest pricing and incentives have varied meaningfully during the sales process. This positions the community across a broad band of Manalapan's 55+ market, from mid-tier to premium depending on model. Buyers should confirm current base and available quick-move-in pricing directly with K. Hovnanian, as new-construction pricing changes more frequently than resale.

New Construction vs. Resale Considerations

As of the most recent review, Four Seasons at Manalapan Crossing was still actively selling new construction across its planned three phases, with builder-reported quick move-in incentives at various points. Buyers purchasing new construction should confirm the current phase, remaining lot availability, expected completion timeline for common amenities, and New Jersey's statutory new-home warranty coverage directly with K. Hovnanian.

Taxes, Insurance & Special Assessments

Homes at Four Seasons at Manalapan Crossing are conventionally deeded single-family properties subject to Manalapan Township and Monmouth County property tax administration. Because the community is new construction, buyers should confirm current assessed value and tax figures directly with the Monmouth County Tax Assessor's office, as initial assessments on newly built homes can differ from stabilized long-term figures.

Community Layout & Lifestyle

Four Seasons at Manalapan Crossing offers a new-construction, low-maintenance 55+ lifestyle with a full activities calendar led by an on-site activities director from early in the community's build-out. Its phased delivery model gives buyers the ability to select from six current models and four interior finish packages rather than choosing from fixed resale inventory, at the tradeoff of ongoing construction activity in later phases.

Shopping, Healthcare & Airport Access

Four Seasons at Manalapan Crossing is located in Manalapan Township at 3 Sunflower Drive, using an Englishtown, NJ 07726 mailing address common to several Manalapan-area communities. The location provides easy access to Route 9, Route 33, and the broader Freehold shopping and dining corridor, as well as the New Jersey Shore.

Age Qualification & Material Ownership Restrictions

Four Seasons at Manalapan Crossing is marketed by K. Hovnanian and consistently described by secondary sources as a 55+ active-lifestyle community, with at least one occupant per household required to be 55 or older and no permanent resident under 19. 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 K. Hovnanian or the HOA. New Jersey's *NJ Realtors v. Township of Berkeley* (App. Div. 2024) ruling concerned a municipal ordinance restricting 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 Manalapan Crossing is still selling across three planned phases, buyers should expect ongoing construction activity, phased amenity delivery, and the possibility of pricing and incentive changes between phases. A discrepancy in the community's establishment year was found across sources (2021 vs. 2023); buyers should confirm the exact timeline directly with K. Hovnanian. As with most new-construction 55+ communities, buyers should also budget for New Jersey's mandatory new-home builder warranty period and confirm which amenities are complete versus still under construction at time of purchase.

Comparison With Nearby Communities

Within Manalapan, Four Seasons at Manalapan Crossing is one of the township's newer 55+ communities, alongside the similarly recent (established 2021, now sold out) Toll Brothers Regency at Manalapan. Unlike Regency at Manalapan, which is fully sold out and resale-only, Four Seasons at Manalapan Crossing offers buyers the ability to purchase new construction directly from the builder as of the last update. Both sit well above the entry-tier pricing of Covered Bridge and the mid-tier pricing of the township's older communities, Renaissance at Manalapan and Village Grande at Battleground.
