About This Home
As of August 2025The charm & character of this classic seashore colonial in highly desirable Fair Haven with spectacular, unobstructed water views is sure to please! Plenty of opportunity to renovate and expand on this perfectly located lot. Wood floors throughout most of the home, all vintage interior doors, a classic clawfoot tub, built-ins and many of the home's original architecture from 1905 are just waiting to be part of a grand transformation! Currently, the enclosed front porch with beadboard ceiling serves as the family room and welcomes you inside. Step through the vintage front door to a dining room with original staircase, leaded glass window and wonderful coffered ceiling. The formal living room with high coffered ceiling opens to the eat-in kitchen with a retro "Chambers" stove and butler's pantry. The enclosed back porch/mudroom with 1/2 bath completes the first floor and provides access to the deck. Upstairs find 3 bedrooms, one with an enclosed sitting room with windows on 3 walls plus a full bath with clawfoot tub. The yard is fully fenced and the lot extends well past the fence line, offering privacy and the potential to expand. Enjoy unique views of Fourth Creek, a tidal waterway with a high tide egress to the Navesink River, and Navesink Cove, offering year-round water views from the porch and the primary bedroom's sitting area. A full basement with plenty of storage contains the washer & dryer. Located in the heart of Fair Haven, set amidst the shopping areas & restaurants in town and just a few minutes down the road in either direction to Rumson or Red Bank this is a commuters delight with close proximity to the train or fast ferry service to NYC. Set along the Navesink River, Fair Haven is known for its blue-ribbon schools and its easy access to the beautiful parks of Monmouth County and beaches of the Jersey Shore.
