About This Home
Nestled in the heart of the Village of Toms River, this charming 1930 center hall Dutch Colonial blends timeless character with some modern updates. Spanning 2,111 square feet, the home welcomes you with a spacious living room featuring a classic fireplace, custom built-ins, and French doors that open to a sun-drenched sunroom—perfect for morning coffee or afternoon reading. The formal dining room offers an elegant setting for gatherings, while the generously sized kitchen provides ample cabinetry and workspace for culinary enthusiasts. A versatile den/office on the first floor can easily serve as a fifth bedroom. Upstairs, you'll find four comfortable bedrooms, each with hardwood floors and its own closet, along with a vintage full bathroom that adds a touch of nostalgia. The first floor's hardwood floors have been recently refinished, and most windows throughout the home have been replaced along the way for improved efficiency. Situated on a deep 50' x 200' lot, the property also includes a detached oversized garage, ideal for storage, hobbies, or workshop space. This classic home offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Toms River history with room to grow and personalize.
