Fun family living in this 4 bedroom on a private cul de sac on a 15 home street. You get the best of both worlds - a Pine Beach mailing address and access to the community (only 7 blocks from parks, beaches, and docks along the Toms River), while enjoying Bayville taxes (a nice savings). We are 1 of the 10 remaining original owners of this newly constructed neighborhood in 2000, with a tree lined road and mature landscaping throughout. We were also lucky enough to stay bone dry (basement and crawl space) during Hurricane Sandy. Our home features 4 bedrooms, with a master bath and additional full bath upstairs, along with a sizable powder room downstairs. We remodeled in 2007 adding an additional 400+ sq foot great room, with transom windows, gas fireplace, recessed lighting and surround sound speakers, and tons of natural light. This renovation changed the layout to a fully open floor plan - converting the previous family room into an extra-large dining room with its own wood-burning fireplace that flows seamlessly into a kitchen island for gathering and views to the whole first floor living space. The great room also features Andersen doors and windows, including a double French door offering views of the pool and wide steps descending into the backyard lawn, while another sliding door offers access to an 18’x14’ custom deck (built in ’07) with an outdoor changing room that can be easily converted to a shower. The deck is also completely private, thanks to mature natural barriers around the yard. With a 2-story entryway foyer, the downstairs also features 9-foot ceilings, wide plank hardwood floors (installed in ’07), and custom colonial-craftsman hardwood trim work throughout the home for all of the doors, windows, and baseboards. The kitchen was re-fitted with new Samsung stainless appliances (dishwasher, range, and fridge) in 2015. Our home also has a finished basement (completed in 2015) offering a 12’x12’ home office and roughly 400 sq foot of open space - wired for an HD entertainment center, including recessed and dimming LED lights, and featuring a wet bar and mini-fridge for entertaining. There are also three separate storage areas, along with a toy closet. The backyard is partially lined with 20+ foot Leyland Cypress trees, backing up to a landlocked green space with mature Oaks, Sycamore, Pines, and more – including nature trails that lead back to 2 ponds. The yard also features an 8’x8’ custom playhouse with Dutch Door (and functional, mini windows with screens), large sandbox, and a swingset. The inground pool (installed in ’07) measures roughly 30’x16’ with a natural shape, with a swim out in the deep end (enough for 6 adults to sit half-submerged along jets) in addition to the low end steps. It runs on a DE filter and also features a salt-cell conversion system. The pool patio offers plenty of room for multiple chaise lounges, and enough setback to escape the splash zone. The entire pool area is surrounded by an aluminum fence with an arched double gate atop paver steps as the main entrance, and a large back gate wide enough for ride-on lawnmower entry. The entire yard is lined with inground sprinklers, fed by a well.
