River Pointe sits in Manchester, NJ, and offers a gated, closed community mainly for adults aged 55 and better, so you'll find homes and amenities focused on comfort, convenience, and active living, and folks can pick from a variety of single-family home models, like Reston, Newhall, Copper Ridge, and Martin Ray, with sizes from about 1,269 to 2,668 square feet, and these homes come with options, such as lofts, sunrooms, two-car garages, and open floor plans, while some of them have first-floor owner's suites and you get choices for new or resale homes. The place has a 16,000 square-foot clubhouse called The Retreat, which holds a heated indoor pool, a large fitness center, an aerobics studio, a yoga room, arts and crafts spaces, a games room, a billiards room, a card room, a community arts room, a library, and meeting rooms, and you'll find outdoor swimming pools, tennis courts, bocce ball courts, a putting green, a horseshoe pit, sport courts, walking and biking trails around ponds, and a community garden for planting.
Life at River Pointe centers on active adult living, so there's a full-time Lifestyle Director planning a calendar full of social activities, hobby clubs, yoga, card games, movies, bowling, sewing, and reading clubs, plus there are resident-run organizations like a singles club, book club, or bowling league, and folks can join in on outdoor programs, fitness classes, and movie nights. Meals happen in a restaurant-style dining room set up to offer choices for folks with diabetes or allergies, and the kitchen team prepares meals that can meet those special needs, with allergy-friendly and specialized diabetic options available. There's on-site help, too, like housekeeping, laundry and dry cleaning, move-in coordination, concierge help, family support services, plus transportation and parking, and the community's furnished with Wi-Fi, kitchenettes, cable TV, air conditioning, and private bathrooms inside the homes.
River Pointe supports different levels of care, so there are independent living, assisted living, respite care for short-term needs, nursing home, memory care, and even continuing care retirement services, and people can get help with bathing, dressing, medication management, and there's a 24-hour call system, supervision, emergency alert systems, and monitoring by a guard house for added safety, with the guard house handling access at the entrance. Built by Del Webb and Pulte Homes, which are known builders for 55+ active adult neighborhoods, River Pointe homes come with modern design, quality craftsmanship, and a 10-year home warranty, and there's financing help and homecare guides for new owners. Shopping, department stores, boutiques, and healthcare including four hospitals sit close by, and the location gives quick access to Garden State Parkway, Route 9, and highways 37 and 70, so traveling's easy for visitors or residents. The whole place is made for relaxation and staying active, with plenty of indoor and outdoor spaces for socializing, activities, and rest, and the community follows guidelines for home modifications, so owners need to submit a form to the board for approval before making changes.
