19 Heron Drive, Avalon NJ

Another Winfield Developers Bayfront Masterpiece! Nestled along prestigious Heron Drive, one of Avalon’s most exclusive waterfront streets, 19 Heron Drive is a hidden jewel offering breathtaking views of the lagoon and the bay. With architectural design by Asher Slaunwhite + Partners and interior decorator Ford Design Studio, this extraordinary custom residence showcases bespoke millwork, tailored finishes, custom lighting, vaulted ceilings, magnificent architectural shapes and curves, and carefully proportioned spaces designed for both elegant entertaining and relaxed coastal living. Perhaps most impressive is the property’s rare 75 +/- feet of waterfront frontage. A brand-new bulkhead, two deep-water boat slips, dock access lighting, and excellent boating and docking water, including at low tide, create an exceptional waterfront package. The protected lagoon setting provides desirable shelter while offering convenient access to Avalon’s surrounding waterways. Enter through the covered porch and immediately experience gorgeous bay views framed by expansive walls of glass. The waterfront family room features floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors opening directly to the outdoor living areas. The second-floor porch is equipped with automated screens, power hurricane shutters, and heaters, extending the indoor-outdoor living season. The home’s exceptional orientation captures beautiful natural light throughout the day and offers direct, unobstructed sunrise and sunset views over the water, creating spectacular waterfront vistas from morning through evening. At the heart of the home is a state-of-the-art chef’s kitchen featuring a Wolf range, Sub-Zero refrigerator, Sub-Zero wine refrigerator, refrigeration drawers, Wolf steam oven, dishwasher, Miele coffee station, warming drawer, and Hargest custom cabinetry. The family room includes a beverage center with an ice machine and a dedicated wine bar. A gourmet butler’s pantry features a Wolf speed oven, second dishwasher, and additional warming drawer, while the second-floor deck offers a built-in outdoor grill. The residence offers six bedrooms, including three ensuite bedrooms, five full baths, and two powder rooms. The luxurious primary suite enjoys direct waterfront views and features an immense spa-inspired bath with a soaking tub and a spectacular private deck overlooking the lagoon. A third-story roof deck provides another exceptional vantage point with sweeping views across the Fingers and surrounding waterways, an incredible setting to take in the home’s direct sunrise and sunset views. Outside, resort-style living takes center stage with expansive waterfront decking, sandblasted marble patio, a heated in-ground pool and spa, a spacious yard, and a beautifully designed detached cabana. The custom patio incorporates a specialized drainage system through the bulkhead, while professional landscaping and exterior lighting complete the waterfront setting. Additional features include elevator, custom cedar detailing, cedar-shake siding, a private elevator, three HVAC systems, three washer/dryer combinations, and abundant storage. Very few Avalon properties combine this level of waterfront frontage, protected boating water, deep-water dockage, fresh water available at the dock, color-changing underwater lighting, outdoor space, architectural distinction, and resort-style amenities. Unique and truly one of a kind, 19 Heron Drive represents one of the finest waterfront packages on the market, quintessential Avalon luxury and inspired living by the bay at its finest.
