Finally, Wall Township's most exclusive estate is up for grabs! This extraordinary
Home, built by the area's most prestigious developer as his own, and unlike any other, is massive in size without being ostentatious, and was created with the best of everything. No expense was spared at any level, from the basic construction materials, to the ac units, to the top of the line light fixtures. This timeless classic, ideal for every season, is perfectly situated on a secluded 5.5-acre parcel set on a small, quiet cul-de-sac that is surrounded by mature trees and majestic forests. Unlike ANY other property of this magnitude in Wall Township, this home site alone offers complete seclusion from every angle; there are no other homes visible, just views of spectacular foliage and expansive lawns Once you step through the main front door, you enter a home worthy of Architectural Digest. The elegant grand foyer with cathedral ceilings, richly designed white wood paneling, massive crystal chandelier with lighting Genie, and curved fluted staircase has two large doorways: To the left sits a formal living room with intricate wood fireplace, and more detailed woodwork. The second doorway passes under the graceful staircase and leads into an expansive family room with wood burning fireplace, intricate coffered ceiling, and an expansive rear wall comprised entirely of French doors that lead out to a large, rambling covered back porch that incorporates mahogany ceilings and a built in brick Viking grill, and overlooks an incredible view of the picturesque rear yard pool area and gardens. The open floor plan of this house, perfect for entertaining, is evident as the family room flows into a newly renovated jaw-dropping gourmet kitchen that boasts a massive quartz topped island, and an inviting peninsula like keeping room of all windows, flanked by a handsome stacked stone gas fireplace. Every window offers views of pure greenery. All new appliances, including a Wolfe double over and range, plus two Thermador double wall ovens, a Subzero unit, and Miele dishwasher, are surrounded by beautifully done wood cabinetry, and there is also a separate "work kitchen" located through a swinging door that includes a s/s refrigerator, a large under window sink, microwave and was designed to house all the auxiliary appliances. The elegant dining room, located next to the family room and kitchen, is again, finished with tasteful woodwork and a breathtaking Schonbek chandelier and wall sconces.
Also located on the main level, is a built in granite wet bar with a wine cabinet, cooler and storage closets, a guest room, one full bath and one half bath. A competing focal point of the main level of the house is the separate wing known as the grand library. This one of a kind, two story library cum art gallery, has a mahogany floating curved staircase that leads to a second floor wrap around cat walk with ornate iron railings, two separate sitting areas with huge palladium windows, and offers guests an extraordinary view of the inlaid marble first floor.
On the first level, there is a massive gas fireplace, built ins, and partial coffered ceilings under the catwalks, with woodwork galore. This room is also perfect for huge family gatherings and somehow manages to be cozy despite its size. If that is not enough, two wood pocket doors lead into a plush movie theatre complete with a
massive viewing screen with surround sound, Zen lighting, and seven overstuffed leather chairs that recline back, enabling you to watch in complete luxury.
One the second floor of the main house, all accessible from the top landing of the grand foyer, sits four bedrooms.

There is also yet another bedroom/study. The French doors to all rooms lead out to a long serene, brick lined loggia featuring a genuine stone cascading wall fountain that adds a charming sound to the quiet surroundings. The ceilings are mahogany as well, and there is a unique large wood burning fireplace, as well as an enchanting koi pond filled with colorful fish. This is a perfect area to gather on a cool fall night for a glass of wine. There is also cable hook up for a flat screen. The loggia offers incredible views of the pool area. The pool is a natural shaped gunite zero entry pool, which allows for guests and small children to frolic about freely about the shallow end, which then steps down to the main pool which has the traditional low and deep end. There is an elevated round hot tub that juts out over the deep end with a spillover waterfall into the main pool. Brick pavers surround the area, and there is a quaint pool house that has a large kitchen sitting area, a large bathroom with shower, and is equipped with both ac and heat. Again, the surrounding mature trees evidence complete seclusion. Other incredible features worth mentioning are the commercial sized back up generator, recently installed after Super storm Sandy, and capable of powering up a good portion of the main house, as well as a half regulation size outdoor seasonal ice rink which can be placed in the pasture area and has the added advantage of 70' commercial outdoor lighting, a central vac system, an electric broom component in the main kitchen, close proximity to Monmouth Executive airport and the GSP. This 8 bedroom, 7 bathroom, estate was built in 2002 but has been had only one owner, and has been meticulously maintained since that time.
