Properties situated directly across from preserved county parkland offer a distinct and lasting advantage, protected open space means the views across the street can never be built on, ensuring lasting privacy, natural light, and open sightlines for years to come. The park encompasses several distinct ecosystems, including a maritime upland forest, freshwater wetlands, and expansive salt marshes along Barnegat Bay. The park spans 530 acres with 7 miles of trails, and features the Cooper Environmental Center, a newly renovated nature center with an observation deck overlooking Barnegat Bay and a 1,000-foot ADA-accessible boardwalk. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate immediate access to hiking, birding, bay views, and nature photography opportunities directly from the neighborhood. This is a rare opportunity to own a spacious Colonial on an oversized lot, with permanent preserved open space directly across the street, a combination that is truly difficult to replicate in today's market.
