Built by Prestige Builders, the residence sits on an expansive 122 x 65 lot and is finished with a durable Hardi board façade and Timberline Shake Roof. Inside, engineered hardwood flooring, recessed lighting, and custom staircases and railings create a polished architectural through line. The gourmet kitchen is outfitted with Subzero/Wolf appliances, quartz countertops, and upscale fixtures, complemented by custom cabinetry that continues into the bathrooms, where stylish tilework adds enduring ease. Outdoors, a curated living area unfolds around a custom pool with a cabana/pool house, an outdoor kitchen, and lush landscaping, while an attached two-car garage keeps daily arrivals effortless.

In the modern kitchen, Sub-Zero/Wolf–level appliances anchor a streamlined culinary hub, while durable HardiePlank siding brings a crisp, contemporary finish outdoors. Multiple exterior areas extend the living space, including a private backyard oasis with a veranda, pool, and custom open window bar with seating. Walkable access to Margate’s Marina District, dining, and retail completes the experience.

Set on 208 acres in Columbia, New Jersey, Whispering Pines Estate lives like a private retreat with the rare convenience of its own airstrip.

The rustic-modern main house is joined by a detached chef’s kitchen and dining lodge designed to seat 12, plus a private guest house for hosting with ease. For quieter rhythms, a dedicated office/spa retreat building complements a barn, while wellness amenities include an in-ground heated pool, hot tub, sauna, and yoga studio. Miles of pristine hiking trails, organic gardens, and sweeping scenic vistas make everyday life feel intentionally unhurried.
