Master planned by Duany Plater Zyberk & Company, it utilizes the principles of Traditional Neighborhood Design, which looks for its inspiration to many of the most cherished historic towns and villages in the United States such as Charleston, South Carolina; Stonington, Connecticut and Nantucket, Massachusetts. Traditional Neighborhood Design places emphasis on human scale, a lively mix of uses and pedestrian-friendly atmosphere. These neighborhoods typically feature a town center, a variety of housing types and interconnected street networks. Architecturally, Warwick Grove takes its cue from the historic precedents of the Hudson Valley, predominantly Dutch Colonial, Farm Country and Victorian. Warwick Grove has won numerous awards including a Gold Award from Builder Magazine for Design and Planning and a Platinum Award from Professional Builder Magazine for Best Single Family Detached Home. That home, designed by Donald Powers, has also been featured in “The Face of Home” by Jeremiah Eck (Taunton Press). Another home has been featured in Woman’s Day Special Publications. www.warwick-grove.com
