Welcome to the birthplace of Exit Zero magazine, launched in 2003. This cedar-sided, stylishly decorated, light-filled three-story home on an acre lot is a short bike ride from the beach and offers the perfect retreat on the island. Two years ago, the owners began renting it and the property is generating around $70,000 in annual income. The huge, window-filled gourmet kitchen is outfitted with white concrete countertops and includes a sitting area with a real-flame gas fire. The kitchen blends seamlessly into the living-room with its spectacular 18-foot fireplace, flanked by floor-to-ceiling bookcases, and a top-of-the-line real-flame gas fire for those cozy cooler evenings. Off the living room is a large screened-in porch, fitted with ceiling fans, perfect for enjoying those summer breezes. On the third floor sits one of two master suites, with a soaking tub and large walk-in shower. A huge walk-in closet leads to a private deck which feels like a tree house - it's perfect for your morning coffee as you overlook the large fenced-in yard. A second master suite on the first floor has a French window leading into the garden. The first floor includes two other light-filled bedrooms, a bathroom, a large den/recreation room and a tiled laundry room that leads to the back yard. The yard includes a large cedar shed and is outfitted with a professional irrigation system with its own water well if you're planning on some serious gardening or would like to experiment with growing your own vegetables! There is plenty of land in the yard for a swimming pool. A breezy, covered front deck and a large side deck, shaded by a pergola, offer yet more ways to enjoy the outdoors. There is ample parking in the gravel driveway for up to six cars. The property has a septic system, city water and natural gas. It is located on the north side of Stimpson Lane, making it located in Lower Township.
