4 Bedroom House in Fort Hancock, Highlands

This recently restored lieutenants quarters on officer's row is set in a beautiful and tranquil setting with lots of charm and character. The home is actually a duplex and built in 1939 renovated 2016.
Down stairs is a living room, dining room (seats 8-10), new kitchen, small bunk bed room, and a comfortable side porch with bay breezes. Upstairs there are three bedrooms (2 Queen size one with one with two singles) and two bathrooms (master bathroom is ensuite). Also a pull out coach in the living room.
This is the first season offering this home for rent (sorry it is not ADA compliant, due to its age).

Summary: When I visited Sandy Hook, NJ many years ago, I dreamt of staying in one of the yellow brick army officers’ homes, and am so glad to have had the chance to. Brian did a wonderful job restoring and outfitting the place, and he was an outstanding host. We went after the summer crowds were gone, and had a great time exploring the empty beaches and abandoned grounds of Fort Hancock. We look forward to returning there soon!
