Built in 1897, this home is a 3 story, water view, single family home. Owned by our family since 1946, the house offers 6 bedrooms and 3 full baths. The living room and family room both have high ceilings with a water view. Also is a full size separate dining room and sizable kitchen. There is a fabulous, wide wrap around covered porch. In addition, the property includes an over size attached garage with 616 sq. feet of second floor storage. The driveway easily fits 4 cars and there is a good basement. Island Heights is a small, safe community located on Toms River and Barnaget Bay. The town has its own school, post office, library, town hall, police and volunteer fire departments. There are 3 marina’s and a yacht club in town...boat slips are available. There is also a deli-restaurant on Central Avenue and golf cart driving is allowed. Island Heights offers a wonderful waterfront boardwalk with benches to relax and enjoy watching the sailboats or beautiful sunsets. You can also enjoy the public swimming beach, a public dock with a pavilion and parks/recreation areas on the water. Plenty of community events. Our home at 14 Jaynes Avenue was not flooded during Hurricane Sandy and does not require flood insurance. Our father always said “If our basement has water, Trenton is under water.” You will always find a good breeze off the river and this house has windows galore. Each room in the house is large and stand alone. Half of the rooms on all 3 floors have a water view. As you will love the garage for its multiple storage opportunities, you will find the wrap around porch is the most comfortable place to relax during the warmer months. Our family loved this porch for entertaining friends, catching the breeze or a good thunder storm and watching the river activities. Private Tours Available.
