Never worry about wet feet or sand since the entire first floor is tiled with beautiful travertine which also has piping already installed if you wish to add a heating unit to make it your source of radiant heat. Off the hallway is the library with gas fireplace, built-ins and cabinets plus a bay window. And if ever needed, this room could be used a first floor bedroom as across the hall, there is a full bath which is great for guests to shower off and has a large sink that can double as a small tub for little oneswhether human or otherwise. Moving into the kitchen you'll find soapstone counters, a built-in steamer and two sinks on opposite walls for separate cooking and cleaning stations. The large center island beckons you to sit down and share a meal with the family or enjoy cooking with friends (grab a cutting board, please!) Beyond into the great room is a sitting area with its gas fireplace and cabinets above which hides the TV and games. Adjacent to the sitting area is the dining area with its bay window. Between these two areas on one wall is the nautical themed wet bar with glass fronted cabinets, beverage fridge and ice maker. Opposite the wet bar are a pair of french doors opening onto the deck and rear yard, which is fenced, landscaped, and quite private. The south facing side foyer with its spacious closet welcomes company from the street or side yard where they may have parked their bikes. The stairway up to the second floor transitions you to wide-plank wood flooring under foot extending throughout the remainder of the house. The primary suite facing east has its own balcony overlooking the backyard, a large walk-in closet with built-ins and a private bathroom with heated marble floors and double sinks. The other three bedrooms also each have an ensuite bathroom, two of them with showers and one with a tub/shower combo. Finally, there is the third floor, everyone's favorite room. Besides being a multi-purpose space with light streaming in, you might consider going out on the balcony to enjoy its views of the bay. It's a great place to escape the daily hubbub as well as a wonderful place from which to watch the sun set. The location of this property is ideal in that it is a short distance for beach access and all of downtown Bay Head, as well as Barnegat bay and Twilight lake for sailing, kayaking, or paddleboarding.
