1634 Somerset Ave

Few properties on Linwood’s Gold Coast bring together this level of architecture, scale, privacy and waterfront setting. Occupying nearly an acre along Linwood’s coveted Gold Coast, this exceptional custom residence stands in a category entirely its own. Approximately 4,500 square feet of understated coastal elegance unfold against a remarkable natural backdrop, with sweeping views across the marsh and open bay to the Atlantic City skyline. The setting is not merely scenic; it defines the experience of the home. Inside, artisan millwork, newly refinished hardwood floors, shiplap ceilings, exposed beams and custom built-ins establish a level of craftsmanship rarely encountered. The light-filled main living spaces flow effortlessly into a beautifully appointed kitchen featuring honed Carrara marble, designer cabinetry, a farmhouse sink, 48-inch Wolf range and Sub-Zero refrigeration. A substantial stone fireplace anchors the great room, creating a sophisticated but inviting heart of the home. Privately positioned on the first floor, the primary suite is a true retreat, complete with an adjoining office or dressing room, marble fireplace, direct patio access and a richly finished bath with marble surfaces, glass-enclosed spa shower and vintage claw-foot tub. Upstairs, three en-suite bedrooms are joined by a second living area, flexible workspace and a balcony overlooking the water. Dual staircases and a thoughtfully designed mudroom with Dutch doors further distinguish the home’s architecture and functionality. Beyond the French doors, the property transforms into a private waterfront resort. A broad slate terrace surrounds the saltwater pool and spa, while the outdoor kitchen, fireplace, expansive fenced grounds and panoramic coastal views create an extraordinary setting for both intimate evenings and large-scale entertaining. The three-car finished garage is equally exceptional, enhanced by an automobile lift and EV charging port. Owned solar panels, professionally installed solar-control window film and an average electric bill at approximately $6 per month bring meaningful efficiency to a home of this caliber. Timeless rather than trendy, impressive without excess, and impossible to reproduce by comparison alone, 1634 Somerset Avenue represents one of the Gold Coast’s most distinctive residential offerings. This is not simply a home with a view—it is a property whose architecture, grounds and setting exist in rare harmony. Virtual tour link included. Agents: See Remarks for additional information.
