Lot 22 of Long Branch Preserve provides a unique opportunity for a custom home build in a private, mountaintop community embedded in nature. Long Branch was designed as a place where residents and guests can enjoy an upscale neighborhood in a rural setting while benefiting from more than 300 protected surrounding acres that will never be encumbered with further development. From the community amenities to the design guidelines, Long Branch is, by design, a community focused on health, wellness, serenity and conservation. Safeguarding the existing hills, trees and watersheds within Long Branch make it unparalleled in its respect for nature in both design and building practices.
