This 4 bedroom, 4.5 bath Cape Cod is the perfect combination of family home and shore escape. Nestled on a quiet wooded street, this property is a quick trip to/from Philadelphia, minutes to main travel arteries, and just 10 minutes from Stone Harbor and Avalon. This home welcomes visitors with curb appeal, sitting back on an expansive 1.25 acres of flat, beautifully treed grounds. The home offers an attached two-car garage. Brick walkways access the front and back of the house including a large back deck (new composite), outdoor enclosed shower, and a beautifully landscaped, very private back yard. Further to the rear a natural wooded area permits outdoor camping, and located discreetly to the rear of the lot is a large lofted, garden out-building complete with workbenches, electricity and ample storage for yard, hobby, and beach supplies. Space for small boat/trailer storage flanks this building. At the home s front entrance the hardwood entry hallway accesses a formal dining and a living room. It continues to the sunny family room with sliders to the rear deck and a fireplace feature wall that includes handcrafted built-in cabinetry, entertainment center and custom lighting. A first floor full bath adjoins the family room and library; the latter houses a wet bar and refrigerated wine closet that holds 350+ bottles. French doors in the library lead to a picturesque tiled sunroom wrapped in five Anderson sliders perfect for parties that flow inside and out onto the deck. The welcoming, eat-in kitchen features ample counter space, storage, Silestone tops, hardwood floors and pleasant views to the front yard. A half bath and full laundry with utility sink, accessing the back deck, also is handily positioned next to the kitchen and garage entrance. The upstairs features a true master bedroom retreat with large sitting area and two walk-in closets. The en-suite master bath is a sunny spa-like oasis with a cathedral ceiling, skylights, glass-enclosed shower, Jacuzzi tub, and his/her vanity and sinks. An additional two bedrooms (front bedroom has access to huge walk-up attic) are ample, with excellent closet space and proximity to the full hall bath with shower and large linen closet. The fourth bedroom, over the garage, is quite large and is entered via a private staircase in the garage. It adds flexibility as wonderful guest quarters and/or an office space, with built-in desks, bookcases, loads of storage and a full bath with a steam "sit-down" shower. Outside the 2 car garage there is extra room for RV or boat/trailer parking.
