7354 Ocean Dr, Avalon, NJ 08202

This extraordinary bay front setting offers a unique combination of wide water and sunset views, unbelievable beach proximity from a bayfront home, and a newly decorated interior. The homes presence greats you immediately upon pulling into the extra deep, pavered driveway, as the landscaping was tastefully upgraded earlier this year. Across the street is the bird sanctuary, creating a private setting with beautiful landscaping looking every direction. The beautiful ambiance is continued up the blue stone, masonry steps and into a dramatic two story foyer. The first floor features three bedrooms, all with en suite baths, a powder room, and a bayside family room that spans the width of the home. The family room offers a wet bar with refrigerated drawers, a fireplace, and multiple slider access out to a covered porch with a hot tub and a fire pit. A step down from there is a dock that leads out to a fixed pier over the water, perfect for morning coffee or watching one of the best sunsets 7 Mile Island has to offer. The dock also offers access to two boats slips, one with a boat lift. The views are even better from the second floor great room, which features a vaulted family room with another fireplace, a beautiful kitchen with high end appliances and a large center island, and a bay side dining area. Rounding out the second floor are two more bedrooms, both with en-suite baths and a powder room for the entertaining space. A private staircase leads up to the third floor master suite. The bay views from the bedroom and adjacent deck are breathtaking. A third fireplace, a walk in closet and grand master bath make this suite the perfect place to retire. Down the hall is an office with beautiful views of the bird sanctuary and a peak of the ocean (the office could be used as a 7th bedroom). Other amenities include a four stop elevator, a large garage, a security system, 3 fireplaces, plantation shutters, darkening shades in all bedrooms, and a retractable awning on the first floor deck. If you are in search of a bayfront property with one of the best views available on the island and situated just a 2 block walk to the best beach on the island, make sure to see this extraordinary property.
