Set on just over an acre in the North Dover section of Toms River, this custom Colonial welcomes you with warmth and timeless character. A grand two-story foyer sets the tone, introducing light-filled spaces and thoughtful architectural details. Hardwood floors grace the foyer, dining room, living room and upstairs hallway. At the heart of the home, the spacious eat-in kitchen offers ample cabinetry and abundant natural light, with sliders opening to the deck. The adjoining family room features a fireplace and built-ins. Pocket doors connect to the living room, where a second fireplace creates an inviting gathering space. Upstairs, the expansive primary suite features soaring ceilings that extend into the bath. A spiral staircase leads to a versatile loft, ideal for an office, reading nook or quiet retreat. A built-in bookcase overlooking the two-story foyer adds a distinctive touch. Three additional bedrooms, a full bath and a bonus room complete the second level. Three of the home's four bedrooms feature walk-in closets. The finished basement provides additional space for entertaining, recreation and relaxation, along with a full bath and two dedicated storage rooms. Outside, level, park-like grounds offer a private setting with a fully fenced backyard, oversized Trex deck and in-ground pool. Well maintained over the years, this custom Colonial offers lasting charm and generous space for everyday living and entertaining.
