Approximately five acres are fully fenced, with mature woods and manicured gardens framing a circular driveway centered on a fountain. Nearly 30,000 square feet of brick pavers connect the driveways, walkways, patios, pool terrace, outdoor fireplace, gardens and garages. In front of the attached garage, contrasting pavers form an enormous Barnegat Lighthouse inlay, illuminated after dark. Approximately 150 additional landscape lights transform the grounds each evening. Inside, the approximately 8,650-square-foot residence opens into a soaring two-story foyer with a staircase rising to an open upper gallery. The light-filled living room overlooks the patio, pool, pool house and gardens. The adjoining dining room features windows wrapping three angled walls, columns, intricate flooring and a dramatic turret-style ceiling. The chef's kitchen offers custom cherry cabinetry, Corian countertops, stainless steel appliances, a gas cooktop and side-by-side refrigeration. A generous island provides a prep sink and abundant storage, while the breakfast bar seats four. The adjoining breakfast room enjoys peaceful garden views. The private north wing is devoted to an expansive primary suite overlooking the pool, patio and gardens. Its spa-inspired bathroom offers dual vanities, a Jacuzzi tub, and a frameless glass shower. The east-facing wing includes an office with wraparound built-ins, two additional bedrooms and a full bathroom with dual vanities and separately arranged bathing and toilet areas. A laundry room, utility room and oversized attached garage complete the main level. Upstairs, an entertainment area with a pool table and living space leads to an oversized bedroom with sitting and dining areas. A quiet alcove provides a second office. Another tremendous finished area is arranged as a gym and recreation center, with potential for guest quarters, an apartment, studio or multigenerational living. Outdoor living centers on generous terraces and an Anthony Sylvan concrete pool that reaches a depth of approximately 13 feet. Accompanied by an attached spa and supported by solar power and a gas heater, this substantial pool was designed as a forever pool to be enjoyed for generations. All equipment was updated in 2024. The 18-by-22-foot pool house features an all-brick exterior, Andersen windows and doors, tile flooring and clear red cedar tongue-and-groove interior walls. The grounds also include a new electrified greenhouse, an elevated irrigated vegetable garden and two 18-zone irrigation systems. More than four separate garages with multiple bays provide approximately 6,224 square feet of total garage space. Features include vehicle lifts, epoxy-coated floors, permanent air compressors and gas and electric heat.
