Single Family Residence in Toms River, NJ

Behind the gates, a long tree-lined drive sets the tone. At 1762 Todd Road, arrival is intentional. A private guard house leads to a sweeping circular drive centered by a hand-selected fountain imported from Italy, an immediate signal that this estate was curated, not constructed - designed with legacy in mind. Set on 10.1 pristine acres in North Dover, the property offers a level of privacy, scale, and presence rarely found in Toms River. The stately brick residence, crowned by slate dormered rooflines, reflects timeless European craftsmanship. Inside, a soaring double-height foyer opens the home with immediate drama and elegance. Rich architectural details, curated sightlines, and a sense of proportion define every space. A paneled library invites quiet moments, while a temperature-controlled wine cellar just beyond blends function with refined design. The heart of the home is a custom family room with vaulted beam ceilings and a striking agate-backlit bar a space designed not just to entertain, but to impress. Formal dining overlooks professionally landscaped grounds and the grand Italian fountain, creating a seamless connection between indoor elegance and the estate-like setting beyond. The French-inspired kitchen balances old-world charm with modern luxury, featuring a La Cornue range, marble surfaces, bespoke cabinetry, and a sunken breakfast room that flows naturally into the home's most unexpected space. The main living room is an experience. A built-in stage, hidden projector, hand-painted ceiling, and Juliet balcony leading to an upper-level media room create a setting equally suited for intimate evenings or unforgettable gatherings. A private office nearby keeps work discreetly connected to home life. From here, the layout opens directly to a custom recreation room with pool access, wet bar, steam shower, and entertaining lounge blurring the line between resort living and everyday life. Upstairs, four bedrooms include a primary suite designed as a private retreat. Security doors, a fireside sitting room, dual spa-like en suites, a walk-in dressing room, and a private dry sauna create a sanctuary that feels worlds away from the rest of the home. The lower level offers a finished lounge and a substantial unfinished wing, ready for customization whether storage, fitness, or future expansion. Outside, the grounds rival the interior. A clover-leaf shaped swimming pool with spa is framed by a 2,000-square-foot slate patio. A full basketball court offers flexibility for tennis or pickleball. A four-car garage is complemented by a private guest suite above, complete with its own entrance ideal for extended stays or live-in staff. For those who value discretion, space, and thoughtful design, 1762 Todd Road offers a setting that is both exceptional and enduring.
