Port Royal Reserve Debuts as Philadelphia’s Newest Nature-Immersed Community

Michala Costello is the listing agent behind Port Royal Reserve, bringing nearly two decades of real estate experience to the project

PHILADELPHIA, PA, UNITED STATES, October 5, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Port Royal Reserve is a community of six new-construction homes by award-winning Harth Builders, located at 383-393 Port Royal Avenue in one of Philadelphia’s most unique and serene neighborhoods. Surrounded by natural beauty yet still within city limits, the setting offers a tranquil retreat from the hustle of downtown — just minutes from Manayunk’s Main Street, the Wissahickon trail system, and Chestnut Hill, with easy access to Center City. The community was designed for those who value connection, both to nature and to the people around them.
“What makes Port Royal Reserve so special is the lifestyle it offers. It is a true nature setting, yet still within the city of Philadelphia. That kind of balance is incredibly rare to find.” said Michala Costello.
Buyers can choose a move-in ready model, customize select features, or build their dream home from the ground up. Each home is custom-built with exquisite finishes and meticulous attention to detail, set on generous lots of up 3 acres on the two larger lots. The model home, spanning 4,400 square feet, with four-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath residence pairs classic colonial-inspired architecture with modern interiors, priced around $2.6 million. Inside, a chef’s kitchen with a 10-foot island and walk-in pantry anchors the main level, alongside spacious bedrooms with walk-in closets, primary suite with spa-like bath, and finished lower level. Outdoor living is central to the design, with covered front and back patios, a covered cabana for entertaining, and a detached third-stall garage.

Michala Costello along with Rob Lamb are the listing agents behind Port Royal Reserve, bringing nearly two decades of real estate experience to the project.
As founder of Curated Living at Compass, Costello has been licensed since 2007 and based in Haddonfield, NJ, she was one of the first agents at Compass’s Center City Philadelphia office when it opened in 2018. She has built a career representing high-net-worth clients, including executives and professional athletes. She’s a member of Compass’s Sports & Entertainment Division, Compass’s Coast to Coast Network, and REALM Global, and was recently named a 2026 Dynamic Woman by Philadelphia Style magazine. That track record of successfully bringing new-construction communities to market — paired with a national referral network — makes her a natural fit to lead the story on a project like Port Royal Reserve.
