Continental Properties begins construction of Fairfield County luxury multi-family community

Shelton, CT Continental Properties, one of Connecticut’s most successful developers of luxury multi-family communities, began construction of its newest community, located in Fairfield County at 453 River Rd. Located on 9.4 acres between Coram Rd. and River Rd., Continental’s new community will consist of four 4-story buildings, each with elevators, a lobby and a mix of one and two bedroom homes.

In total, the community will consist of 152 units comprised of 132 market units and 20 affordable units. The new community will feature river views, amenities, including a 3,400 s/f clubhouse and adjacent pool. It will be just minutes from The Merritt Parkway and Route 8, less than 15 minutes to New Haven and Bridgeport, less than 10 minutes to the Milford train station, a quick drive to restaurants and shopping in downtown Shelton and a brief walk to the Housatonic River.

Founded over 65 years ago, Continental Properties has built over 25,000 luxury homes and communities throughout the country and Connecticut. Continental’s new community will be its second multi-family residential development in Shelton, joining The Mark, a 228 unit community, which opened in 2016.
