The Beach Haven Belle- Truly special property! This oceanside, Victorian Reproduction renovation-build home fits in perfectly with the surrounding period homes in Beach Haven’s Historic District. Masterfully, its exterior belies its interior. The designer-owner conceived an open plan from the former mix of small dark rooms to create spaces bathed in light with a relaxing, airy feel. Original 1940’s paneling was removed, reworked, reaffixed, and repainted in dove gray and is offset beautifully from the white bead board and planking of the Foyer and Living Room. Reclaimed 100-year-old barn wood plank floors contrast with driftwood planked walls that grace the inside-out “porch” and Little Egg Harbor Yacht Club-inspired stairwell in the addition at the back of the house. Decorative elements recall the L.B.I. shore through light switches, fan blades and pillows that depict historic landmarks of the island created from old postcards sourced by the owner. Custom cabinetry and a TV cabinet were fashioned out of reclaimed wood and reproduction driftwood. The garden-view kitchen is all custom with an AGA stove, distressed zinc counters, a turn-of-the-century washboard sink, and ocean-hued Moroccan tile. Up the stairs, a globe chandelier beckons to the second floor where the Master South has an aqua-hued vaulted ceiling. The Master North sports its own “inside” trellised porch. A guest room has hints of Provence where the owner lived and worked in design. The two children’s’ rooms recall the sea, one with hanging nautical beds and the other with a lofted bed replica of Old Barney. This home comes mostly furnished with antique furniture collected from dealers in Hudson, New York and Europe. This is a must-see home - make an appointment to see today!
