This exquisite Ryan Homes house can be found off Exit 67 in Barnegat in the sought out Whispering Hills Community. The Rome model, being the largest home offered in this community, backs to the preserve woods for ultimate privacy and a peaceful landscape. 177 Emerson is adorned with a cottage style elevation - cedar shake siding and cottage style windows that provide the utmost sunshine into your home. Upon entering this well-maintained home, you will immediately take note of the pride of ownership with the custom crown moldings throughout, wood flooring and open floor plan. The kitchen, being the heart of the home, will not disappoint with new Quartz Countertops and custom stone backsplash. The 8-foot island is sure to be the main attraction during any event hosted in your new home. Opening to the grand living room you will find a wall to ceiling stone fireplace and ceilings boasting large wooden beams to make the space extra cozy. An additional space lies off of the living room, which can be transformed into a play area, additional bedroom or study. The natural light floods into these rooms from the morning room off the kitchen, which incorporates additional windows and is the perfect place to enjoy the view of the secluded wooded area that lies behind the home. Completing the main level is a large dining room that opens into a formal living room no detail left untouched.

The beautiful wrought iron spindles lead you upstairs to a glamorous master bedroom with a tray ceiling. The "his" and "hers" closets are nothing short of impressive, especially the extended her closet - which is the equivalent size of a small bedroom. A recessed panel wood focal wall has just been added to the master to give it that extra "wow" factor! The ensuite bathroom has a double vanity, large glass shower with bench and a luxurious soaker tub. In addition, you will find 3 large bedrooms & a sizable office with French doors, which can easily be transformed into a 5th bedroom. A laundry room is also found on this level for your convenience.

This dream home also features a fully finished basement with the addition of 2 generous storage spaces. The garage has been completely remodeled with epoxy flooring and shelving for storage. The driveway has been resealed just this year, and a home security system has been installed for your comfort. No detail has been missed and this surely will not be on the market very long!

We can't wait to welcome you to your new forever home in the highly coveted Whispering Hills community!!
