Celebrate summer in this unique, historic East Ave classic beach house. This property is perfect for multi-generational families and friends seeking stress free beach proximity with plenty of space and charm inside and out. Located across the street from the guarded beach, kids spend their days riding the waves under the watch of our very friendly life guards while you relax with toes in sand and cool beverage in hand.
Located a stone's throw from Bay Head's fabulous Mueller's Bakery, visitors can walk or ride a bike to local shops just a block away. Ideal for kids who love to play hide-and-seek, grown ups who enjoy cool drinks on one of the wrap-around porches, and teenagers who might even put down their phones to enjoy a round or two of Ping Pong. We recently added a player piano for the enjoyment of those who can play as well as those who can't :)
Enter the house from the huge front porch with can seat about a dozen people in Kennedy rockers and comfy wicker seating, right into the formal living. On the right is the diniing room/family room. The dining table easily seats 14 without crowding the two couches and player piano in the family room area. Just off the dining room there is a "Butler's Pantry" or as we call it, "The Bar" which includes a sink, dishwasher and plenty of glassware.
For dining outside, we enjoy breakfast on the east porch as the sun rises, cocktails on the back patio by the grill, and dinners on the large main porch in the shade.
The big, bright, fully equipped, family-style eat-in kitchen features center island for chopping, chatting and serving quick meals and snacks to kids of all ages and a large (expandable) table and chairs in the corner for up to 8 people. Coffee Maker, blender, microwave, toaster, and electric teapot available for your convenience.
There are a couple of bikes in the garage as well as plenty of beach chairs and sand toys. The large yard and driveway can accommodate all your cars, which you won't need while in Bay Head. But if you'd rather avoid the traffic our home is also just a 10 minute walk from the Bay Head train station with convenient service to New York and points north.
Feel free to set up croquet or badminton in the yard. There is plenty of space for a good game of tag, too. The outdoor shower is a staple of the classic shore cottage.
Friends and family have celebrated weddings, birthdays and a variety of milestones in this home and we hope you enjoy it as much as we do. It is ideal for large family gatherings! The ice cream on the cake?....the Good Humor Man drives past the house daily!
Located in Bay Head, this vacation home is near theme parks and near the beach. Shoppers can check out Jenkinson's Boardwalk, while everyone can enjoy the natural beauty of Point Pleasant Beach and Manasquan Beach. Traveling with kids? Consider Jenkinson's South Amusement Park and Jenkinson’s Aquarium. Kayaking, water skiing, and water tubing offer great chances to get out on the surrounding water, or you can seek out an adventure with cycling nearby.
