About This Home
As of August 2026Welcome to this well maintained Center Hall Colonial situated in the desirable Royal Oaks neighborhood just 1.5 miles direct to GSP and a 15 minute drive to the beaches of Long Beach Island. Designed for both comfortable everyday living and effortless entertaining, this bright and inviting home features a custom kitchen with abundant cabinetry, generous workspace and open flow into the family room - creating the perfect gathering space. The spacious primary suite serves as a private retreat with a remodeled ensuite and oversized well configured walk in closet. Recent major improvements include a full roof replacement and solar panel installation in 2023. The panels are not leased, and ownership will transfer fully paid off at closing. Step outside to your own backyard oasis. The saltwater inground pool includes a 2 year old liner and filter. A private well services the sprinkler system and pool. The combined solar panels and well dramatically offset utility costs. Just down the block is Corliss Park which features a scenic lake, new pickleball courts, an updated playground and a dog park. Combining convenience, recreation and coastal charm, this home offers so much!
