City Island, NY According to Greystone, a New York-based real estate development, lending and advisory company, “On the Sound,” a newly constructed waterfront residential development on City Island, is now 75% sold. Located on five waterfront acres at 226 Fordham Place, On the Sound has 43 townhome-style condominiums within a private gated community. McClellan Sotheby’s International Realty, led by Sona Davidian, is exclusively handling sales for the community.

On the Sound features two, three- and four-bedroom homes ranging in size from 1,407 to 3,345 s/f with both private garage and driveway parking for each unit. Designed by Kutnicki Bernstein Architects, all units feature gas fireplaces, Carrera white marble accents, GE Profile stainless steel appliances, hardwood flooring and walk-in closets.

“Our goal is to create a truly one-of-a-kind community with elegant finishes, open water views and an intimate neighborhood feel – something that’s hard to find in the five boroughs,” said Jeffrey Simpson, head of Greystone Development. “On the Sound is a truly unique addition to the City Island area.”  

On the Sound units offer residents either a spacious private garden or elevated terrace. The community’s private amenities include a clubhouse with elevated terrace, outdoor pool, playground, and fitness center. Just outside the gated community is a new esplanade, providing beautiful vistas of the Long Island Sound and environs.

“The property is drawing in a mix of buyers ranging from current City Island residents, to downsizers from Westchester looking for condo living, to residents from the surrounding New York City area,” said Davidian. “This gorgeous waterfront community is surely going to be the jewel of one of the most unique and distinctive neighborhoods in NYC.”
