About this House

The open house scheduled for Saturday has been cancelled. A classic "historic" home located close to downtown Barnegat is waiting for a new generation to take charge of it. Dating from approx. 1786, the home is set on an oversized approx. 89' x 165' corner lot. You enter the home from a covered front porch into a wide entrance hallway leading to a very spacious living room and a dining room. Also on the first level is an updated kitchen, laundry area, pantry and a small office area. There is a wrap-around screened porch and off the rear of the home is a large deck. The upper floor has 3 large bedrooms and further up is a spacious attic. The home also has a "rough" basement. An oversized detached garage with loft area. The home is definitely in need of care and therefore comes in "as is" condition. The lot size is approximate.
654 E Bay Ave, Barnegat, NJ 08005 is a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom, 1,988 sqft single-family home built in 1786. It last sold for $275,000 on Feb 19, 2025 (15% above the $239,500 asking price). This property is not currently displayed as for sale or rent on Trulia. The Trulia Estimate is $304,100, with a rent estimate of $2,944/month.

    "Local bus is pretty close. I’d take that to Toms River, (15-20mins drive) then to Port Authority in NYC. But to Commute to the City is either expensive (that’s with taking a Lyft or Uber to Toms River) or extremely long. For local commute I wouldn’t know. Haven’t been here long enough or needed to use it."
