Overview

Description

The most extraordinary opportunity to acquire 5.29 acres of riverfront property. A parcel that has not changed hands in generations. 70 W River Rd is one of Rumson's great estate properties. The winding gravel drive leads you back in time and through pastoral land with close to 300' of Navesink River frontage. Riparian rights will likely provide for a dock and boat lift to facilitate waterfront activities of all kinds. Deep private lot with a variety of specimen trees...some estimated to be in excess of 100 years old. Thoughtful gardens will surprise visitors each spring. High on the bluff....the building envelope is expansive and free from flood risk. Soaring views of the River, the Oceanic Bridge, and the Hartshorne Woods. Build the home of your dreams to your unique

Supplements: specifications and without compromise. A blank slate that will inspire future owners, your architect, your builder, your friends and family, and your visitors for years to come. One of the last great opportunities to design a magnificent Rumson estate for the next generation.
