Local Real Estate Broker Satisfies Client's Needs and More at Upscale Trio Condominium in Palisades Park

PALISADES PARK, N.J. – – With their children grown and no longer in need of their large home in Holmdel, N.J., Angela Cheng set out to downsize to a new residence that required less maintenance and was closer to New York City where both her parents and in-laws currently live.

To find the perfect home for their exciting new lifestyle, Mrs. Cheng and her daughter Jessica enlisted realtor Mindy Doong from Smart Realty in Edgewater, N.J. who specializes in luxury waterfront properties along the Hudson River to guide them through their search.

“We wanted to live in a high-rise building that provided an easy commute to New York City, since Jessica works there,” Mrs. Cheng says.  “Mindy took us to several new and resale condominium communities along the Hudson River such as Hudson Pointe, City Place and Hudson Harbour.  While they offered commutable locations in North Bergen and Edgewater, the interior finishes were not as nice as what we were looking for.”

Armed with knowledge of the Chengs’ strong desire for a high-rise address, luxury interiors and a premium location, Mindy immediately set her sights on a residential building she knew would fulfill all their needs.  Trio, an upscale condominium located minutes from the George Washington Bridge in Bergen County’s Palisades Park, had already impressed several of her clients with its upscale homes, exclusive lifestyle, world-class amenities and ease of maintenance-free living.

“Trio is the only new luxury high-rise in Palisades Park,” points out Mindy, who handles a large clientele of Chinese homebuyers in search of residences along the Hudson River waterfront.

“The interior finishes are very nice, the layouts are open and it has great amenities such as the concierge service.  My clients also love the huge wrap around windows, deeded parking, fairly reasonable taxes and, of course, easy access to New York City via the George Washington Bridge or public bus. With all this in mind, I knew it would be perfect for the Chengs.”

Mindy’s instinct would prove to be correct. The Chengs were immediately impressed with the bright, modern floor plans and designer appointments throughout the kitchens and bathrooms. With an address less than three miles from the George Washington Bridge at 800 12th Street in Palisades Park, her main objective of being close to loved ones was satisfied.   Purchasing a spacious two-bedroom condominium, the Chengs found their new home at Trio. 

“The commute allows us to quickly access the City,” Mrs. Cheng adds.  “The finishes were much more upscale than some of the other places we saw and the large wrap-around windows and openness of the home were a definite attraction. It was exactly what we were looking for.”

 Trio features luxurious one-, two- and three-bedroom condominiums priced from just $310,000.  Homeownership is made even more affordable at the building thanks to limited-time special offers, including a $30,000 buyer incentive program.

Condominiums at Trio range in size from 742 square feet to 1,751 square feet and boast designer elements including floor-to-ceiling windows, hardwood floors and modern recessed lighting. Gourmet kitchens include granite countertops, stainless steel GE appliances, custom maple cabinets, and Kohler fixtures. Designer bathrooms feature Crema Marfil marble floors, granite countertops, custom maple vanities, and Kohler fixtures. All homes come with an individual washer and dryer.  Immediate occupancy is available.

Trio also features an exciting suite of newly-renovated, five-star recreational amenities including concierge service, the lounge with billiards, ping pong and large screen TV with catering kitchen; state-of-the-art fitness center, the yoga studio, game room, virtual golf simulator, outdoor terrace and a business center all located within the buildings.  Covered parking is also available.

“The recreational and social amenities at Trio raise the bar for what homebuyers expect in a condominium community,” says Jacqueline Urgo, president of The Marketing Directors, the exclusive marketing and sales agent for Trio.  “By completely renovating these facilities, we’ve created a living environment that rivals some of Manhattan’s most exclusive buildings, but at a price that’s significantly less.”
