Welcome to 6 Otter Circle, a beautifully maintained and extensively upgraded home in Seacrest Pines where thoughtful design, custom modifications and substantial owner improvements have created something well beyond the typical builder offering. Set on a quiet five-home cul-de-sac, rather than the community's more typical six-home configuration, the setting provides additional curb space and a noticeably less crowded feel.
Customization began during construction with a 4-foot builder bump-out that enlarged both the front bedroom and garage. A stone facade along the foundation adds another layer of architectural detail and enhances the home's already attractive exterior.
The great room showcases one of the home's most distinctive features. With builder approval, the original floor plan was engineer-redesigned to eliminate the standard built-in configuration and properly center the gas fireplace and custom mantel, creating a beautifully balanced focal point and a configuration unique to this home.
The kitchen features Aristokraft soft close doors and drawers cabinetry, quartz countertops, breakfast-bar seating and upgraded Frigidaire Gallery appliances, highlighted by a double wall oven that was a special builder along with a 36" 5 burner cooktop an option not commonly offered.
A custom wine and coffee bar with upper and lower matching cabinets and quartz countertop and dedicated wine refrigerator adds another thoughtful touch for entertaining. Plantation shutters, upgraded lever-style door hardware and coordinated designer lighting continue throughout the home, including an upgraded dining room chandelier and a striking "fandelier-style" ceiling fan in living room.
The former covered rear porch has been converted into comfortable year-round finished living space with heat and air conditioning with "april-aire" humidifer for the whole house with electric shades in the added space. Also included in the sale is the electric fireplace in the 4 seasons room.
The conversion has been recorded with the township, creating a bright and inviting extension of the home's living area. The attention to detail continues outside. A substantial custom paver entrance creates an impressive approach to the double-door front entry while providing wide, step-free access directly from the driveway.
Attractive landscaping and extensive hardscaping complement the home and continue into the backyard, where an expansive custom paver patio creates an exceptional outdoor living and entertaining space. Areas for dining, relaxing and gathering are surrounded by stone walls and metal gates on each side.
A built-in gas grill and custom paver access from the side yard. Even with this impressive outdoor living area, a generous amount of open lawn remains. The garage is equally well thought out, featuring an epoxy floor, custom-built shelving, an access ramp and the additional space provided by the original 4-foot bump-out.
A whole-house Generac standby generator provides added peace of mind, while the laundry room includes a utility sink and Electrolux front-load washer and dryer. 6 Otter Circle is a home where the difference is found in the details: structural changes made during construction, carefully selected finishes, extensive hardscaping and years of meaningful improvements chosen for comfort, convenience and enjoyment.
This is a home that truly needs to be experienced in person to appreciate everything it offers. For those looking to keep family or friends close while maintaining separate homes, neighboring 4 Otter Circle is also offered for sale under MLS #NJOC2043974, presenting a rare opportunity to own two adjacent properties with an extraordinary amount of combined outdoor space.
