Magnificence and elegance are exemplified in this completely renovated and upgraded 7-bedroom, 3.5-bath colonial overlooking the picturesque Spring Lake and Divine Park. As you saunter up the Bluestone path you begin to appreciate the acute attention to fine craftsmanship and detail. The wraparound mahogany porch provides a warm welcome and sets the tone for this immaculate home, bringing to life the grandeur of a bygone era. As you enter the home, the majesty of the 9+ foot ceilings cordially complements the exquisite decorative moldings and gleaming hardwood floors. The living room boasts a 48" entry door with a diamond window pane of olde world charm, an oversized gas fireplace, and a private elevator to the Second Level. The wide opening into the dining room features fluted molding, rounded corners and a centered-keystone on the crosshead. Stepping in you come upon coffered ceilings and twin built-in corner breakfronts, as well as a swinging French door with beveled glass leading to the kitchen. The gourmet chef in you will be inspired to design and create all of your culinary delights. This fabulous kitchen offers a Wolf stainless steel dual-oven range, side-by-side Sub-Zero refrigerator/freezer, center island with a built-in microwave oven and topped with a teak hardwood counter, custom cabinets galore, marble countertops, subway tile backsplash, built-in "eat-in" area, abundant lighting, and many additional superb attributes. The seamless flow into the adjoining family room provides a venue for entertaining or relaxing, with plenty of natural light through the southern-exposure, double sliding glass doors. Off the main level hallway there is also a well-situated laundry room and delightful powder room. The oversized rear foyer provides a transition from the kitchen to the backyard, complete with a built-in bench and wall-mounted lockers. The second level is where you find the master bedroom, with its expansive luxury ensuite bathroom, wraparound balcony, and, of course, the aforementioned elevator from the living room. There are three other generously-sized bedrooms and another full bath on this floor. On the third level, there are three more bedrooms, a third full bath, cedar closet and additional storage. Escape to the beautifully-finished lower level den with wall-to-wall carpeting, numerous storage closets and a temperature-controlled wine vault. The converted carriage house serves as a 6-car garage, shared with the other two properties on the block, each with 2-car facilities. The oversized concrete driveway provides access to the gate into the hedge-lined backyard and exit onto Mercer Avenue. The Borough of Spring Lake, commonly known as the "Jewel of Jersey Shore" or the "Irish Riviera," is an enchanting hamlet nestled along the Atlantic Ocean, bordered on north by Lake Como and the south by Wreck Pond. In the late 19th century, Spring Lake, named for its sparkling spring-fed lake in the center of town, developed into a fashionable coastal resort for well-heeled visitors from New York City and Philadelphia. Today, Spring Lake is a unique year-round beach community with a population of approximately 3,000 that welcomes a large influx of summer vacationers. The town boasts a beautiful two-mile non-commercial boardwalk that borders a beautiful sand beach, several refined bed and breakfast inns, quaint downtown area comprised of a variety of lovely shops and eateries, railroad plaza served by trains on the North Jersey Coast Line, and a number of exquisite historic homes. This home is very conveniently located, just 4 blocks from the beach and boardwalk, 2 blocks from the train station, and 2 blocks from the town center. For commuters, New Jersey Transit provides rail service into New York City, while the Garden State Parkway is less than 5 miles away. And if you are in the mood for the sounds and sights of the traditional boardwalk experience, all the action can be found in nearby Point Pleasant Beach and Asbury Park. Wake up every morning to captivating lake views and gentle sea breezes. Peacefully sunbathe on the pristine sandy beach. Take the scenic footbridge into the town center. Enjoy a quiet evening stroll on the boardwalk. A personal tour is the only way to truly appreciate the splendor of this home. Your Quintessential Lakefront Estate Awaits!
