For this community by Trumark Homes, the message from the public was clear from the start: demand for new homes in Newark was high – the only thing missing was the homes themselves. In order to attract a variety of homebuyers, including young tech-savvy professionals with families, we set out to bring residences flexible designs that cater to all lifestyles. The architectural style is reflective of the natural setting with a contemporary coastal vibe.

Glass Bay encourages interaction by offering outdoor community spaces, a tot lot, a barbecue area and ample seating. Thanks to a location just across the bridge from Silicon Valley’s hub, this community keeps residents close to employment, restaurants, shopping, attractions and everything else the area has to offer. With more opportunities, a better price point and a shorter commute, this community goes above and beyond in every way, and we were honored to receive the Best Detached Community of the Year award at the 2018 BIA Excellence in Home Building Award.
