An English Cottage on the Shore. Welcome to this Arts and Crafts 3 bed/ 1.5 bath home on one of Asbury's most beautiful blocks. It's faux thatched roof line is most memorable, often referred to as one of the ''Mushroom Houses'' of the area. Meticulously restored by its current owners, the care and attention to detail are apparent the minute you enter. Glowing hardwood floors, stained wood moldings, period lighting, glass doorknobs and brass fittings abound. All of the charm and all of the modern features live beautifully here. A renovated kitchen and bathrooms, new furnace and gutters, perfectly painted windows and stucco exterior and a basement just waiting to be finished. The most special sleeping porch off the primary with an original window that opens to see a glimmer of Deal Lake. Walk through the vine covered gate to a magical backyard. A detached garage that is secretly wishing to become a pool house...yes there is room for a pool amongst the greenery and mature landscaping. Such a rare home, equally as perfect in the winter as it is in the summer where the beach is a short bike ride away.
