About this property

The Best of Both Worlds! Casual beach house living with all the modern updates!

Kick off your shoes and come on in! Our absolutely charming, historic house is truly one of a kind. This is one of Bay Head's original houses and has been well maintained and newly renovated. We have lovingly kept everything as original as possible while adding all the modern conveniences needed.
The large kitchen honors its original layout and includes new cabinets, appliances and flooring. The newly renovated upstairs bathroom and new powder room on the first floor are up-to-date with an antique flair. A second bathroom upstairs features new fixtures and new glass enclosed shower. The woodwork in the house was done by expert craftsmen of its day and remains an artistic treasure.
All mattresses are new and comfortable. Washer/dryer and outdoor shower are new additions. The old-fashioned rocker front porch offers ocean breezes, a lake view and great people-watching. You'll find that the neighborhood is quiet yet interesting, beautiful, and convenient to everything. This home is truly a treasure which we hope you will appreciate as much as we do. Welcome to Bay Head, which some call "Nantucket to the South".
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

I have deep roots to the shore area where I have summered since I was a young child. I appreciate the architecture and history of this house. It is a very special place.

What makes this property unique

One of Bay Head's original houses that has been well maintained and newly renovated. Built in Princeton in the late 1880's and moved to Bay Head in the early 1900's, this home belonged to one of the early settlers of Bay Head. It remained the summer home of the original family until 2017. Prime location on quiet side street just 6 houses from the beach, 3 houses from the lake. Walking distance to shops, restaurants, and NYC train.
