A Putnam County builder is looking at a 20-acre townhouse and condo project in Stamford, Conn., as the “mothership” project for the company.

Sun Homes of Pawling is hoping to complete Palmer Hill, a private community on Havemeyer Lane on the Greenwich-Stamford, Conn., border, by the summer of 2008.

The project will feature 81 condominium homes and 114 townhouses situated on nearly 20 acres of park-like grounds.

Sun Homes is partnering with private investment firm Buckingham Partners of Haddonfield, N.J., to finance the project.

Palmer Hill will be located at 77 Havemeyer Lane in Stamford on the former office campus that housed the Dorr-Oliver Co. and later served as the corporate headquarters of Cuisinart.

Bill McGuinness, principal of Sun Homes, said this will be the largest project the company has undertaken. Most recently, it has built The Willows at Crestwood, in Westchester County, a gated luxury condominium community of 40 attached homes.

“We’re not that well known, but we’re growing,” said McGuinness. “This is the first time we’ve had institutional equity partners. This is seen as the mothership project for the company.”

The company has been issued a demolition permit for the existing building, but is still awaiting building permits to begin the new construction.

“We’re on a week to week permit watch,” McGuinness said.
