New Rochelle, NY Encore, a 29-story residential tower featuring 241 luxury residences and amenities, has leased 95% of its units and unveiled its exclusive spa amenity.

“We are delighted by the overwhelming response Encore has received from people looking for a luxurious residence with unmatched amenities and services with a convenient location in the heart of downtown New Rochelle,” said Louis Cappelli, chief executive officer of the Cappelli Organization. Encore was developed by Cappelli Development and built by its affiliate, LRC Construction. 

Located at 325 Huguenot St., Encore is three blocks from New Rochelle’s Train Station with Metro-North and Amtrak service. Encore is also near dining and shopping options. 

Encore’s apartments feature spacious layouts with luxury vinyl plank flooring, quartz countertops with full height backsplashes, stainless steel appliances, full-size washers and dryers, quiet-running dishwashers, porcelain tile showers and baths and walk-in closets with built-in shelving. The residences’ floor-to-ceiling windows provide views of Long Island Sound and New York City. Each apartment is equipped with a smart home technology package with keyless entry, central heat and air conditioning, programmable smart thermostats, and high-speed internet and cable connectivity.

Earlier this year, Encore unveiled its exclusive spa amenity. This oasis contains four relaxation spaces for residents’ ultimate at-home getaway, including a Sauna, Steam Room, Zen Room and Yoga Room. The Zen Room includes three high-tech therapeutic massage chairs as well as a water wall for complete serenity. 

Additional luxury amenities include a health club with state-of-the-art cardio and weight training equipment, Full-Swing multi-sport simulator, indoor putting green, multimedia lounge, rollerball mini bowling alley, ping pong lounge, co-working spaces and a children’s playroom. For entertaining, residents can enjoy a professional chef’s event kitchen as well as an outdoor grilling area with pizza oven.

Residents enjoy 24/7 concierge services, a package room, dry cleaning service, on-site covered parking, electric vehicle charging stations, beach club access and exclusive access to two Tesla vehicles. Encore, which is pet friendly, provides a pet spa and grooming station. There is also a bike repair and storage room. Common areas have complimentary high-speed wi-fi service.

Encore is located directly adjacent to Cappelli’s 3THIRTY3, a 28-story luxury tower that was similarly leased in less than a year. “We are very pleased with the continued success we have enjoyed in New Rochelle. This is a fabulous market for multifamily development,” said Cappelli.
