About This Home
As of July 2025Welcome to Sea Cliff—a picturesque seaside village known for its parks, beaches, and amazing restaurants. This fully renovated 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath Colonial has everything buyers are looking for. Completely redone in 2023, the home features wide plank wood floors throughout, a brand-new roof, water filtration system, and updated electrical panel. The kitchen is stunning—custom cabinetry, radiant heated floors, stainless steel appliances, and a sunny breakfast nook overlooking the expansive .41-acre yard. The first floor also has a new laundry room, a stylish half bath, and a cozy den with a wood-burning fireplace. Recessed lighting (hi hats) has been added throughout, giving the whole home a bright, modern feel. Upstairs, you’ll find a spacious primary suite with an en suite bath and lots of closets. One of the bedrooms has been turned into a custom walk-in closet but can easily be used as a bedroom again. Other upgrades include custom window shades, a new boiler, smart sprinkler system, large driveway, and a two-car attached garage. Move right in and enjoy easy living in this beautiful coastal village.
