Introducing...5 Riverdale Avenue, a timeless home made for summer days, sun kissed views, & year-round memories, located just one block from the sand & a few blocks to downtown, in the high and dry section of Monmouth Beach. The classic front entry foyer greets you with custom millwork, glass paneled French doors leading you to an elegant elegant dining room and a traditional formal room. Both oversize rooms frame a sweeping staircase & showcase the exquisite hardwood floors found throughout the first & second floors. Ideal for entertaining, the eat-in kitchen flows seamlessly into the living room, offering 9' ceilings, gas fireplace and an abundance of natural light. As the central gathering space of the home, the chef's kitchen shines with an oversized center island and stainless steel appliances, including large double Liebherr refrigerators, 3 ovens, a Bertazzoni stove, and a wine fridge. Off the kitchen, tucked away with its own private staircase you will find a second floor game room which could easily double as an office or be transformed into another bedroom suite. The four second-floor bedrooms are thoughtfully arranged for comfortable everyday living. The primary suite feels like its own private retreat, complete with a balcony, wet bar, and two walk-in closets complete with a second set of washer/dryer. The bathroom includes an oversized soaking tub, double vanity, and a spacious shower. The additional 3 bedrooms, all w/ custom fitted walk in closet systems, are generously sized with 2 connected by a beautifully updated Jack and Jill bathroom.
