Tucked onto one of the best homesites in the community, this move-in-ready Granville backs directly to woods and preserve — the kind of quiet, private setting that rarely comes to market here. Inside, an open floor plan lives bright and easy, with a granite-topped kitchen and sunny eating area that flows into a spacious family room anchored by a Three Season Room. A separate formal dining room gives you room to host in style. The private primary suite features a walk-in closet and full ensuite bath, and a generous second bedroom offers flexibility for guests, a home office, or hobbies. Step out to the rear patio — the perfect spots for morning coffee or unwinding to the sounds of the preserve — surrounded by a professionally landscaped, low-maintenance yard. Beyond your door, Country Walk of Lake Ridge delivers the active-adult lifestyle Ocean County is known for. Residents enjoy a 7,600 sq. ft. clubhouse with a ballroom, fitness center, billiards and card rooms, a library, and arts & crafts studios, plus a full-time activities director keeping the calendar full. Outdoors, there's a pool with sundeck, tennis, bocce, shuffleboard, horseshoe pits, and scenic walking trails around the community pond. This gentle, tucked-away setting sits just 15 minutes from the Garden State Parkway, five minutes from everyday shopping, and roughly half an hour to the Jersey Shore beaches. Homes on a preserve lot like this don't last — schedule your private showing today.
