About this home

Join the neighborhood of the award winning Bay Forest Club - voted #1 Best in America Living Community by the National Association of Home Builders in 2019. This 3 bedroom, 3 full bath home is the popular Esquire model and has the upgraded kitchen and 4 foot extension, the morning room, and bonus room with a closet on the second floor. The bonus room could serve as a "dorm room" for kids, grand kids and guests - it is equipped with surround sound. 2nd floor loft would be great for a reading nook or a game table. Owners have the dining room, with double doors, set up as a bedroom with the full bath right next door. The master en suite, with tray ceiling, is also on the first floor and provides one level living for the owners. Other extras are as follows: gas fireplace, gas cook top and double ovens, dual zone hear and air, central vac, outside shower, in ground sprinkler system, and intercom. The rear deck (10x28) will be a center of entertaining and outdoor fun. This home is located near the main entrance to allow easy in and out to get to Bethany's beach, boardwalk, shops and restaurants. Bay Forest amenities are like no other in the area! They include the following: clubhouse with exercise room, locker rooms, 3 swimming pools including one with a lazy river, tennis courts, basketball courts, play areas for children, putting green, bocce lawns, horseshoe and fire pits. The new section offers much more and is available to all residents - this includes: clubhouse, 2 new pools, indoor basketball and pickle ball courts, exercise room and kayak launch. A special bonus is the beach shuttle which operates in the summer - no driving around looking for a parking space. Home is being offered unfurnished; however, some furnishings may be negotiable.
