128 Anita Drive Manahawkin, NJ 08050

Welcome to The Coves! Custom built by respected local builder JDM Andrews as his personal residence, this exceptional waterfront home showcases the quality, craftsmanship, and attention to detail that comes from a home built for ownership. Nestled on one of the smallest and quietest streets in The Coves, a neighborhood known for its larger lots and spacious feel, the property offers a rare combination of privacy, comfort, and waterfront living. Designed to maximize natural light and water views, the home features soaring 10-foot ceilings, hardwood floors, recessed lighting, built-in speakers, and expansive windows that bring the lagoon into the heart of the home. The thoughtfully designed floor plan includes a first-floor primary suite overlooking the water, creating a peaceful retreat separate from the guest bedrooms above. The open-concept living spaces flow seamlessly together, making the home equally suited for entertaining family and friends or enjoying quiet evenings overlooking the water. Upstairs, a spacious walk-in bonus room provides valuable flex space to accommodate changing needs, whether as a home office, media room, hobby space, or additional guest accommodations. Outside, composite decking, a spacious paver patio, newer vinyl bulkhead, and beautifully maintained grounds create an inviting setting to relax, entertain, and enjoy the lifestyle that makes this area so special. A rare opportunity to own a home where quality construction, thoughtful design, and an exceptional location come together in one of The Coves' most sought-after waterfront settings.
