About This Home
As of May 2025Welcome to 36 Russel Avenue, where timeless elegance meets modern luxury in historic East Gate.
Here is an incredibly rare opportunity to own a beautifully restored single family home in Oceanport's sought after community. This exceptional 4 bedroom, 3.5 bath residence blends historic charm with modern design, is set on one of the largest lots in the neighborhood, and offers peaceful second floor water views of Parker's Creek.
As you walk in, you're greeted by gleaming hardwood floors throughout, intricate millwork, and a grand crystal chandelier that sets the tone for elevated living. The sun drenched open concept layout is ideal for entertaining, with a seamless flow between the living and dining areas and a cozy family room anchored by a wood burning fireplace. At the heart of the home is a designer kitchen featuring marble quartz countertops, custom white cabinetry, premium stainless steel appliances, and a versatile space off the kitchen that serves as both a butler's pantry and full laundry room combining convenience with style. A sunroom off the dining room opens to your private backyard oasis, where a built in gas fire pit sits at the center perfect for morning coffee, summer barbecues, or peaceful evenings under the trees.
Upstairs, every bedroom offers its own private sanctuary, including a luxurious primary suite with a spa like bath and a Princess suite with its own full bathroom. Additional features include front and back staircases, a full height attic, ready to finish basement, and an attached garage.
Located in East Gate, an enclave of historically preserved homes on the grounds of Fort Monmouth. Residents enjoy classic brick exteriors, scenic trails, and access to nearby parks and waterways. And with Netflix set to open a major production studio at Fort Monmouth, the area is quickly becoming one of the most exciting destinations in Monmouth County.
Just minutes from Red Bank, local beaches, and major transportation, this home offers the perfect blend of history, convenience, and future growth.
Don't miss the chance to make this timeless and beautifully upgraded home your own.
