West Orange Community is Perfect Fit with Brand-New Residences,
Upscale Amenities and Well-Connected Location
WEST ORANGE, NJ – When Steven Weiner was apartment hunting this summer, he focused his search on communities with upscale amenities, proximity to highways, and spacious floorplans. He found all of that and more at one of New Jersey’s newest luxury rental communities: Stonehill at West Orange.
Mr. Weiner leased a two-bedroom residence with a den and moved to Stonehill in July. He was immediately blown away, not only by how much he loved living there, but by how smoothly the leasing and move-in process went and how courteous and professional the staff members are.
“The quality of staff, from management and leasing to maintenance and concierge, has been top notch from day one,” Mr. Weiner said. “My leasing specialist and the entire leasing team and management staff made selecting my apartment an enjoyable experience. The maintenance team is responsive and professional, and the concierge is always a pleasure to speak to. Everyone is kind, helpful, courteous and leaves you wanting of nothing.”
A modern, sophisticated rental residence and access to more than 44,000 square feet of meticulously crafted indoor and outdoor lifestyle amenities round out the luxury living experience.
“The apartment is fabulous,” Mr. Weiner said. “It’s spacious, well-built and well-designed in every aspect from the layout of the unit to the kitchen and appliances and even down to the closet storage. They thought of everything. And when you are not in your apartment you get to experience the most luxurious amenities available in the market. This has been a great joy to me, all of my guests, friends and family, and even my children and their friends.”
One- and two-bedroom residences are available to lease at Stonehill, with den and private balconies available in select residences. Mr. Weiner notes that the layout of each residence is well thought out, with an open kitchen and living area that maximizes available living space. In his apartment, there is plenty of room for his children Mason, 10, and Lillian, 7, to each have their own bedroom when they stay over.
Finishes and features include soaring 9 to 10-foot ceilings, oversized windows, modern plank flooring, stainless-steel appliances, and shaker cabinetry accented by quartz countertops. Plus, Stonehill offers all the at-home upgrades to keep its residents’ lives organized and clutter-free: abundant linen and pantry storage, generous walk-in closets outfitted with custom modular shelving, oversized washer/dryers, built-in desks, wine refrigerators, and more.
As a Stonehill resident, Mr. Weiner enjoys exclusive access to not just one, but two onsite lifestyle clubs, offering multiple social lounges, fitness centers, and entertainment zones. Amenities include 24/7 concierge service, an outdoor swimming pool with private cabanas, multiple co-working lounges with private offices, an indoor and outdoor movie lounge, poker and card rooms, virtual sports simulators, multiple fitness studios with commercial-grade cardio and weight-training equipment, private dining rooms, pet spas, a kid’s playroom, outdoor BBQs and firepits, scenic walking trails, and more. Private garage parking and complimentary shuttle service to NJ Transit is also available.
Among Mr. Weiner’s favorite amenities are the ones he and his children can enjoy together, like the two sports simulator lounges. They enjoy playing virtual golf, bowling, dodgeball, football and soccer.
“The simulator in building 1000 is great because you have your own space, but I like the one in building 2000 even more because you can reserve it, and when someone isn’t using it, or in between turns, there is a game lounge where you can play pool, chess, and other tabletop games.”
Describing himself as “a bit of a road warrior” when asked about his commute, Mr. Weiner said he travels throughout the state to meet with clients as part of his work in the insurance industry. Stonehill’s location less than a minute from Route 280 is perfect for that. The highway access and centralized location make it easy to connect to the New Jersey Turnpike, Garden State Parkway, and Routes 46, 287, 80, 78, 24, and 10, as well as his company’s offices in Parsippany and Woodbridge.
Stonehill opened earlier this year as part of a new live-work-play neighborhood in West Orange on the site of a former office park, which now includes a brand-new public library, new 1.5-acre dog park, luxury housing and walkable shopping, dining and entertainment at the Essex Green Town Center, home to 26 new retail businesses, including ShopRite, Starbucks, Petco, Panera, Total Wine & More, and AMC Dine-In Theatres.
Stonehill’s location in West Orange places residents in the heart of a township that blends suburban charm, natural beauty, and commuter convenience. Unique destinations and attractions include the Turtle Back Zoo, Richard J. Codey Arena for ice skating, and the Treetop Adventure Course for ziplining and rope obstacles. Nature enthusiasts can explore the South Mountain Reservation and Eagle Rock Reservation, while the Orange Reservoir Waterfront provides stunning views and outdoor recreation, including a playground, waterfront walkway, picnic pavilion, fishing, paddleboat rentals, and waterside dining at McLoone’s Boathouse.
Monthly rental rates at Stonehill at West Orange start from the $2,300s for a one-bedroom residence and the $3,200s for a two-bedroom residence.
