Ferruggia Associates

Ferruggia Associates, the developer behind Serenity Ridge, is a multigenerational, family-owned firm with over 50 years of experience delivering high-quality residential communities across New Jersey and New York. Founded by Chas Ferruggia Sr. and Bob Ferruggia—both still actively involved—the firm is now led by the second and third generations, including Rick Ferruggia, Chas Sr.’s son. This continuity ensures that the company’s values, commitment to excellence, and hands-on leadership are preserved across every project. Ferruggia Associates has earned a reputation for delivering on their promises. Their projects are built with care and managed with pride—a guiding philosophy that drives every step of development, from planning and construction to long-term community stewardship. Unlike developers who exit once the homes are sold, Ferruggia remains engaged to ensure that each community reaches its full potential. Their portfolio spans a wide spectrum of award winning residential development, from single-family homes to multifamily neighborhoods. Notably, they developed Cape Shores Resort, a successful vacation cottage home community in Cape May, NJ. That same vision is now being realized at Serenity Ridge—Ferruggia’s second vacation cottage home destination—where lifestyle, nature, and community intersect. When you choose Serenity Ridge, you’re choosing a developer with a legacy of reliability, a track record of successful vacation home communities, and an unwavering commitment to quality. Built with care. Managed with pride. That’s the Ferruggia way.
