“We have thoroughly enjoyed our relationship with Center Park Group spanning multiple projects in multiple markets,” said Tony Berry, Principal of The Berry Company. “The TBC team looks forward to kicking off another successful project with Center Park Group this year.”

Berkshire on Clements Ferry is set to redefine low-density living. The project uses only 15.5 acres of the site to maintain a neighborhood residential feel. The community will consist of thirty-six three-story buildings thoughtfully arranged in six residential pods, enhancing the sense of privacy and space for future residents.

Berkshire on Clements Ferry is within walking distance of Point Hope’s popular shopping center and is located in the sought-after Point Hope master-planned community, making it a prime location for families and professionals.
