About this home
This is a Coming Soon Listing and cannot be shown until 8/17. The date may say 1925, but nearly everything behind the walls--and everything you see--tells a much newer story. Beginning with a comprehensive renovation in 2021 and followed by continued improvements, 701 Sunset Avenue was thoughtfully rebuilt from the inside out, pairing the character and presence of a classic Asbury Park home with the infrastructure, craftsmanship and finishes of a modern luxury residence. New plumbing. New electrical. New windows. New systems. Designer finishes throughout. Even the basement was reworked. This wasn't a cosmetic renovation--it was an investment in the entire home, designed not simply for today, but with the next century in mind.
Enter through the covered side porch, finished with a mahoga mahogany ceiling, ceiling fans and flagstone flooring, into an expansive open kitchen, dining and living space. The corner setting and abundance of windows--including a beautiful bow window--fill the interior with natural light, complemented by Hunter Douglas motorized window treatments throughout. An oversized quartzite island takes center stage in the kitchen, offering generous seating and deep pull-out storage, complemented by Thermador appliances including an induction cooktop, double ovens, refrigerator and dishwasher. A built-in entertaining bar adds another thoughtful element for hosting, while the open layout flows easily into the living area with its gas fireplace. A private en-suite bedroom with Brizo fixtures, dedicated mudroom and laundry room complete the main level.
A contemporary open staircase with sleek metal railings and warm wood accents leads upstairs, where three bedrooms surround a generously sized landing. One-bedroom doubles beautifully as a home office and opens to its own charming sunroom, while a full hall bath appointed with Hansgrohe fixtures serves it and the bright, spacious second bedroom. A pocket door creates separation for the primary retreat, where the bath features a double vanity, Restoration Hardware cabinetry, Hansgrohe fixtures, soaking tub and Toto Washlet. Multiple exposures bring abundant natural light into the bedroom, where a second gas fireplace adds warmth and character. The custom walk-in closet feels more like a dressing room, with abundant built-in storage.
And then there's the bonus: a private third-floor one-bedroom, one-bath apartment with a washer and dryer, offering flexibility for rental income, extended stays with friends and family, or private guest quarters. Extra foam insulation and soundproof sheetrock between the apartment and second-floor primary suite provide thoughtful sound separation.
The full basement offers excellent ceiling height after its concrete floor was lowered approximately three inches during the renovation, plus Bilco-door exterior access and ample room for a gym, storage and more.
Outside, a backyard retreat with firepit provides room to gather, while a detached two-car garage and driveway accommodate four vehicles off street--an exceptional convenience in Asbury Park....
