BARNEGAT, NJ--A new multi-story eco-friendly affordable housing community is currently under construction by the Walters Group, a local residential and commercial real estate developer.

Stafford Park Apartments, totaling 112 units, is part of the large-scale Stafford Park redevelopment located just off Exit 63 of the Garden State Parkway, on Stafford Park Blvd. in Manahawkin. The income-restricted housing project is slated to open in October 2009.

The development will consist of five low-rise buildings, featuring a selection of energy efficient one-, two- and three-bedroom layouts with rents ranging from $445 to $1,117 per month. Each of the five buildings will be divided into two sections with either two or four apartment units in each section. Apartment community amenities include a clubhouse with fitness center, washer/dryer in every unit, a tot lot playground, 24-hour on-site management and maintenance, and on-site parking.

Green building methods and materials are being used to construct Stafford Park Apartments. The eco-friendly community is designed to meet both LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) and Energy Star certification. LEED is a green rating system started by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC).

Located in southern Ocean County, the community is pedestrian-friendly, and situated within walking distance to shopping and dining. Public transportation is available via Ocean Ride, a county transit system that includes Reserve-A-Ride and local bus routes.
