THE BLUFFS AT BEACHFRONT NORTH

An activity-packed clubhouse gives this community a gathering spot

Matzel & Mumford's The Bluffs at Beachfront North, winner of the Community of the Year award from the New Jersey Homebuilders Association, has had a major impact on the Jersey Shore town's revitalization. One of the biggest draws in the home community is its two-story clubhouse, featuring interiors designed by Mary Cook & Associates. The shared space includes a fitness center, lounge area, heated outdoor swimming pool, spa, billiards room and library. Design highlights include the foyer, which has a two-story ceiling that peaks into a wood-covered vault, and the dramatic wood staircase that leads to the second floor. A bright color palette underscores the theme of rebirth for the region.
