    SPARTA —Two fully-decorated model homes are drawing considerable public interest at Round Top at Sparta, the collection of 120 town homes and condo-style residences in the desirable Sussex County Township. The models - which were unveiled earlier this fall - reflect the living spaces offered in the community’s residences, according to Garden Homes, the developer behind Round Top at Sparta. “We’re thrilled with the public’s reaction to the Aristocrat and Beekman models which feature designer upgrades and finishes and provide buyers with an opportunity to view the varying ways they can personalize their new homes,” notes community manager Lee Boyer. “There’s really no substitute for being able to walk through a furnished home and experience first-hand the well-conceived living spaces and overall lifestyle that we’re creating here. These models were designed to do just that.” The first residents will begin moving into their new homes within the next few weeks. Their arrival signifies the community’s transition into an active, lively neighborhood. Many of the buyers cite the community’s unique blend of a desirable suburban setting and care-free, relaxed lifestyle as a major reason for purchasing a home at the neighborhood. “We are attracting buyers of all ages, including a growing number of young professionals, as well as empty nesters who are trading in big homes with no-longer-needed bedrooms and tiresome yardwork for Round Top’s care-free living,” Boyer points out. “Here, they have more time to enjoy the stress-free lifestyle they’ve always dreamt about.” Homeowners are discovering Sparta’s appearing setting more and more frequently. The township boasts an excellent school system and recreational facilities and programs, indicative of a family-oriented community. A number of parks and golf courses are located in town, while residents can enjoy a quick five-minute walk to a movie theater, bowling alley and a variety of shops and convenience stores. Sussex County also features several top retail outlets, antique shops and fine dining. “Commuting is made easy with Route 15 crossing Sparta, providing quick access to Route 94 and northern destinations, and I-80 to southern areas, “ Boyer notes. “New Jersey Transit also operates Manhattan-bound express train service from the nearby Dover station, in Morris County, as well as a Park-and-Ride station conveniently located next door to the community.” Priced from $349,900, two- and three- bedroom townhouses range from 2,100 to 2,300 square feet of living space. Distinctive, one-floor living-style homes offer from 1,300 square feet of space and start at $299,900. Both designs feature 2 or 2½ baths, with decorator vanities, soaking tubs and ceramic tile floors. “A full basement and one- and two-car garages are available with interior entry, while some homes feature wood-burning fireplaces with glass doors,” Boyer points out. “On-site landscaping and maintenance are taken care of by professionals, while attractive Belgium block curbing enhance the community’s upscale suburban setting which already offers stylish architecture of unmatched quality and attention to detail. “There will also be a recreational building with exercise equipment to provide homeowners access to recreational activities.” For additional information on the exclusive town homes and condominium-style homes at Round Top at Sparta, call 973-726-5600 or visit www.gardenhomes.com.
