Beautifully maintained Bay Head home just three houses from the ocean, offering bay views and an exceptional coastal lifestyle.
Set on a rare 232' deep lot, this property features a private saltwater in-ground swimming pool and a thoughtfully designed layout ideal for both everyday living and entertaining.
The first floor offers a desirable primary bedroom suite with sound-insulated walls, providing exceptional comfort and quiet for restful sleeping. The open-concept living space is highlighted by cathedral ceilings and skylights, flowing seamlessly into the kitchen with a large center island. The kitchen opens to a mahogany-built screened-in porch, showcasing quality craftsmanship and attention to detail, and overlooking the pool—perfect for summer evenings.

Ideally located close to both the beach and bay, this is a truly exceptional Bay Head offering.
