Delightful 3-bedroom, 2-bath Craftsman Style Cape Cod in the heart (Village) of Toms River, where timeless charm meets modern updates. With 1,904 sq. ft., this home offers space for every need, including two inviting living rooms (one up/one down/ perfect for spreading out), a home office, and a versatile bonus room that could be a playroom, guest bedroom, or creative space. The stylish new kitchen (less than a year old) makes meal prep a joy, while updates like a 1-year-old AC condenser, 3-year-old vinyl siding, and 6-year-old roof add peace of mind. Plus, ''owned'' solar panels make energy costs a breeze! Step outside to a backyard built for fun and relaxation, featuring a 625 sq. ft. textured concrete patio ideal for barbecues, an 18' round above-ground pool with electric and timers... and a detached 18 x 18 garage/storage. The expansive 62.5 x 200' lot offers endless possibilities for outdoor activities. This home is ready for its next chapter. Start yours here!
