A dual-sided fireplace can be enjoyed from both the great room and study while rich hardwood floors fill the entire main level. Spindles accent the open staircase and second-floor balconies, and a finished walk-out lower level adds to the traditional Colonial floor plan.

Listed for $559,500 by Better Homes and Gardens Big Hill Realty, the home at 1432 Ashbury Park Place has about 6,200 square feet of living space, plus a possible fourth-floor bonus room. The house sits on a cul-de-sac within the Ashbury Meadows subdivision of Washington Twp. The property includes an in-ground pool with wrought-iron fence surround, a covered paver-brick patio and a side-entry, three-car garage.

Formal entry opens into the two-story foyer with staircase and open balconies. To the right is the formal dining room with a tray ceiling, and to the left is an office or sitting room with a dual-sided gas fireplace flanked by two sets of French doors that lead into the great room.

A central hallway ends directly from the foyer into the kitchen, which is open to the two-story great room. Mosaic glass tiles surround the fireplace and highlight the mantel. A wall of windows fills the great room with natural light as does the patio door off the breakfast room. The patio door leads out to a composite deck with retractable awning.

Hickory cabinetry fills the kitchen and includes a six-seat island and pantry with roll-out shelves. A farmhouse-apron sink is below a window and granite countertops complement the cabinet and stainless-steel appliances. There is a planning desk just outside the dining room entrance and a hallway off the kitchen leads to a half bath, a laundry room a back staircase to the second floor and access to the garage.

The main bedroom has a cathedral ceiling, sitting area and a private bath with two single-sink vanities, a walk-in shower, whirlpool tub and walk-in closet. Just outside the main bedroom is another staircase that leads up to the fourth floor where a door opens to a semi-finished bonus room.

Three more bedrooms and two additional full bathrooms are upstairs. One bedroom has a private bath while another has a private entrance to a bath with hallway access.

The lower level has been finished into a recreation room with four daylight windows and patio doors that open out to a paver-brick patio and back yard. There is a possible fifth bedroom as the room has a daylight window and closet. And a fourth full bathroom has direct access to the back yard as well as the recreation room.
