New Pocket Community Offers Right-Sized Home Options and Maintenance-Free Living in West Newbury

If you long for the days when living in a neighborhood meant friendly people, block parties, and a true sense of community, yearn no more. The Cottages at River Hill, West Newbury’s new pocket community, features cottage-style homes designed to embody comfort and relaxed living, and encourage interaction, activity, and friendly conversation amongst neighbors. Homes include yards framed with white picket fences and large front porches that encourage casual conversation and provide residents with the perfect place for entertaining.

Perfectly blending the privacy of single-family living with common services typically reserved for a condominium, it is easy to understand why this latest community by builder and developer, Cottage Advisors, is nearly sold out. With just three home sites remaining, Chip Hall, Senior Vice President, urges interested parties to act fast.

“Out of our original 30 home sites, we currently only have three remaining. Two of those foundations have been poured and one home is nearing completion with a projected move-in date of May,” said Hall. “Since all our homes offer customizable finishes, this is the perfect time to purchase in our neighborhood because buyers can pick out their preferred upgrades before construction is completed. As this is a multi-generational community with a very broad appeal, homes are selling very quickly and I wouldn’t wait very long.”

The remaining homes at The Cottages at River Hill offer four distinct home styles tailored to fit the needs of today’s buyers. Each three bedroom cottage offers a thoughtful open floor plan, first floor master suite, and two-and-a-half baths. Ranging from 1613 to 1865 square feet (sf), some floor plans can also be expanded to feature finished lower levels for an additional 500-800 square feet of living space. Buyers can choose the floor plan that best suits their lifestyle and family. In addition, each cottage boasts hardwood floors on the main level and deluxe amenities such as stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, multi-purpose utility rooms, and spa baths. As an added bonus, Cottages Advisors has designed all homes to be ENERGY STAR certified, featuring Anderson Thermal Clad tilt-in windows, Carrier central heating and air conditioning, and on-demand natural gas hot water systems.

Set on 24 pastoral acres with stunning views of the rolling countryside, The Cottages at River Hill features walking and jogging trails, community vegetable gardens, and an outdoor Pocket Park with a fireplace, pergola, and seating area. These homes are also desirably located within minutes to downtown Newburyport, Plum Island, the MBTA commuter rail, and Routes 95 and 495.

“At Cottage Advisors, we strive for that tight-knit community atmosphere and what we call ‘right-sizing’,” said Hall. “Our customers told us that they were tired of the 4,000 sf home, multiplex, and age targeted condominiums with superfluous rooms, so we listened. Here at The Cottages at River Hill, we offer beautiful detached single-family homes with flexible floor plans and styles that reflect the needs of today’s home buyers. Our homes truly live larger than their footprint. When you couple that with the benefits of not having to worry about snow removal, landscaping and general maintenance, our residents have more time to spend with family, friends, and guests.”
