HOMERUN location! ⚾️ 💥
2000 Highway 34 in Wall presents a rare opportunity to acquire a highly visible and strategically located 1 acre commercial property just 1 mile from the Garden State Parkway entrance and only minutes from the Jersey Shore.
Property has tremendous exposure along Highway 34 and additional frontage from Allaire Road, this property offers exceptional accessibility and an estimated daily traffic count of approximately 30,000-50,000 vehicles per day.
Contact me for a site visit or to review any due diligence that has already taken place.
Welcome to 194 Fort Plains Road, a completely gut-renovated early 1900’s farmhouse where timeless charm meets today’s modern lifestyle. From the moment you arrive, you are greeted by a long, tree-lined driveway leading to a gorgeous front porch that feels straight out of a magazine; the perfect place for rocking chairs, morning coffee, and peaceful evenings. Step inside and fall in love with the character and craftsmanship throughout. The heart of the home features an inviting living room, family room, and kitchen layout centered around a stunning one-of-a-kind hooded oven alcove with a stone backsplash/wall (think ‘’The Shire’’) that creates a warm and unforgettable focal point.
The kitchen also offers hidden doors leading to a pantry, adding both charm and functionality. The second level features 3 spacious bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and a convenient laundry area. A spiral staircase leads to the finished third floor, offering endless possibilities as a playroom, teen suite, office, or bonus living space.
The fully finished walkout basement adds even more versatility with a 4th bedroom, an additional full bathroom, and a large hangout area perfect for guests, extended family, or recreation space. Situated on an oversized lot with nearly 1 acre of property, this home offers the perfect blend of privacy, space, and storybook farmhouse appeal, all while being completely renovated for modern living.

⚾️ When your brand is built around 3rdBaseRealEstate.com… and your guy invents a BASEBALL themed backyard game… you know it’s a perfect match.
Had to collab with my guy Phil from All American Toss.
He and his partner Karl are the creators of the new Ball Bag Toss game 🔥
👉 “The Toss Game That Plays Like Cornhole, And Scores Like Baseball.”
Phil calls it a “backyard ballpark”… and honestly, that says it all.
This thing is BUILT for the backyard, BBQs, tailgates… anywhere you’ve got friends, competition, and a cooler nearby.
You can catch it at spots like ShoreTown Ballpark, home of the Jersey Shore BlueClaws and there are now leagues popping up around Monmouth County 👀
Phil breaks down:
✅ The game itself
✅ The 🔥 custom scoreboard
✅ Multiple mini-game variations (this is where it gets FUN)
And of course… we had to bring in Zephan
If you hear him in the beginning of the video asking us “Yankee Stadium that’s in the Bronx right?” 🫣🫠🥴 and is now coaching the next generation at Toms River Little League 🤯
Don’t worry… I made sure to remind him how I feel in the video.
Bottom line… this collab just makes sense.
⚾️ Baseball roots
🏡 Backyard vibes
🤝 Great people building great brands
Go check out Phil and Karl’s game
👉 https://allamericantoss.com
I’ll also be adding their link to my website under the “Bullpen” tab where you can always find one of my recommendations of vendors I know and trust
Did someone say Toscana?!
Coming Soon! A chance to be neighbors with YOURS truly.
Showings will start Thursday on this rare “Milan” model home which features 4 Bedrooms + 2.5 Bathrooms and an unfinished 3rd Floor Loft that could be transformed into a play room, theatre, office, gym or any other use you can dream up!
Don’t forget.. you are far enough North with Toscana where we are zoned for Freehold Township HS. And the neighborhood turns into an 80’s movie come Halloween time.
Should you have an interest - give me a shout but showings will start Thursday.
Offered at $800,000
In a world of sales where everyone is just making a sale and moving onto the next customer… customer service or customer appreciation gets lost in the process.
Not at @onthegoadvertisingllc
I partnered with Joe @jarminio21 on some marketing and he gifted me with this custom toy truck aka mini version of our advertisement.
