NEW ROCHELLE—National Realty & Development Corp., which is headquartered in Purchase, reported on Feb. 10 that it is in the final phase of construction at WatermarkPointe, a luxury condominium waterfront community in New Rochelle.
Work is underway, with only 11 remaining homes priced from $1.83 million at the project that cost an estimated $100 million to develop.

Each boutique-style building has four floors with two units per floor, designed for privacy. Residents are currently occupying the first 4 buildings.
WatermarkPointe comprises 72 units ranging in size from 2,400 square feet to 2,700 square feet, with two distinctive three-bedroom layouts. The lushly landscaped site boasts a ribbon of beaches, sound-front promenade with walking paths, waterfront pool and clubhouse, and a tranquil green. Contemporary plans open to striking great rooms, where soaring glass walls lead to 30-foot terraces with stunning views. Units feature 10-foot ceilings in great rooms and bedrooms, 15-foot great rooms in the penthouses, eight-foot solid doors, expansive windows, Bilotta designed kitchens and baths and modern materials.
“We are so pleased with the record-breaking sales we’ve seen since the commencement of construction in 2017, with more than 50% of the condos sold in the pre-construction phase,” said Jerrold G. Bermingham, executive vice president at National Realty & Development Corp., builder of WatermarkPointe. “In today’s challenging real estate market, this speaks volumes to the incredible demand for luxury beachfront living in a prime location in Westchester County.”
