Rare opportunity to own a custom home in Avenel. Fine craftsmanship, custom millwork, built-ins, wood beams, and stately features emanate luxury and are reminiscent of Pinehurst ambiance. The grand foyer is accentuated by its volume ceiling and ornate stairwell. It opens to the formal sitting room, which offers views of the home's swimming pool. The kitchen boasts attractive granite countertops, wood cabinetry, a gas cooktop, recessed lighting, and bar seating; the adjacent eat-in breakfast area is equally elegant with an open ceiling. The spacious downstairs master suite has hardwood flooring, a tray ceiling, and two walk-in closets, and its master bathroom includes new dual vanities, marble, a soaking tub, new tile shower, and its own private entry to the porch and pool. A well-appointed study and an additional office are ideal for work from home solutions. Other important features of this home include a newer roof, newer whole-house Generac generator, newer heating and air system, two fireplaces, mature landscaping, a two-car garage, and an additional two-car garage that has been converted to a climate-controlled workshop or home gym. There is also a finished room above the garage that has potential for various uses. Avenel is a waterfront community with a community pier kayak racks and kayak launch.
