Four Seasons at Monmouth Woods

Independent Assessment

Four Seasons at Monmouth Woods was confirmed as a genuine, completed K. Hovnanian 55+ community with strong multi-source agreement on its 251-home count, 12 floor plans, 2016 construction start, and gated status. New construction is confirmed no longer available, meaning the community is now fully built out with all current purchases being resale, consistent with a roughly 2016-2020s build-out timeline for a community of this size. Only a partial HOA fee figure was found — a $2,040/year sewer-charge component confirmed via Howell Township municipal records — rather than the full total monthly assessment, which was not independently confirmed.

Who May Find This Community Appealing

Buyers seeking a gated K. Hovnanian 55+ community with a substantial 6,830-square-foot clubhouse, a range of 12 floor plans (including loft and single-story options), and relatively recent construction (2016-era) are a strong fit for Four Seasons at Monmouth Woods. Its Route 9 proximity also suits buyers who want easy access to Freehold Raceway Mall and the Jersey Shore.

Homes, Builders & Development History

Four Seasons at Monmouth Woods was developed by K. Hovnanian Homes beginning in 2016 as a gated 55+ community in Howell Township, offering 251 single-family, low-maintenance homes across 12 separate floor plans — four with lofts, eight with single-story living — ranging from 1,747 to 3,664 square feet with two or three bedrooms and an attached two-car garage. New construction is confirmed no longer available, and the community is now fully built out, with all current purchases being resale.

Current Pricing & Market Positioning

Original K. Hovnanian pricing for Four Seasons at Monmouth Woods started in the $300,000s; the median listing price for new resale listings is reported around $675,000 as of the last update, reflecting appreciation since the community's 2016 construction start. This positions it as a mid-to-upper-tier Howell 55+ option relative to the more affordable, much older The Villages NJ. Buyers should request current closed comparables specific to the floor plan under consideration from a local agent.

New Construction vs. Resale Considerations

New construction at Four Seasons at Monmouth Woods is confirmed no longer available, so all current purchases are resale. Buyers should request the HOA's current financials, reserve study, and governing-document package, along with a full independent inspection, before purchasing.

Taxes, Insurance & Special Assessments

Homes at Four Seasons at Monmouth Woods are conventionally deeded single-family properties subject to Howell Township and Monmouth County property tax administration, plus a separately billed sewer-charge component confirmed at $2,040/year effective January 2024 per Howell Township municipal records. Buyers should confirm current total tax and utility-charge figures directly with the Monmouth County Tax Assessor's office and Howell Township.

Community Layout & Lifestyle

Four Seasons at Monmouth Woods offers a gated, resort-style 55+ lifestyle with a substantial 6,830-square-foot clubhouse and 12 floor-plan options, including both loft and single-story layouts, giving buyers meaningfully more model variety than many comparably sized New Jersey 55+ communities.

Shopping, Healthcare & Airport Access

Four Seasons at Monmouth Woods is located at 200 W. Farms Road (also referenced as 1231 West Farms Road) in Howell Township, just off Route 9, with the Jersey Shore beaches roughly 30 minutes away and Freehold Raceway Mall nearby.

Age Qualification & Material Ownership Restrictions

Four Seasons at Monmouth Woods is marketed by K. Hovnanian and 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 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

Only a partial HOA fee component was confirmed (a $2,040/year sewer charge via township records) rather than the community's full total monthly assessment; buyers should request the complete current figure directly from the HOA. As new construction is no longer available, buyers should also expect resale-market pricing and inventory rather than builder incentives.

Comparison With Nearby Communities

Within Howell, Four Seasons at Monmouth Woods is meaningfully newer (construction began 2016) and more expensive than the historic, 1967-1975-built The Villages NJ, offering a gated, resort-amenity alternative at a materially higher price point. Its variety of 12 floor plans gives buyers considerable choice.
