For just under $2.2 million, this sprawling showplace in Colts Neck, listed by Janice Rizzo with Robert Defalco Realty Inc., could be yours!

From the exterior, you’d never know what holiday wonder awaits inside. Take a look and see if it doesn’t have you humming carols!

New Jersey’s answer to the North Pole
Who’d think you could fill that massive foyer? If this doesn’t get you in the holiday spirit, nothing will!
Who needs a butler…
… when you’ve got these life-size nutcrackers on hand to greet your guests?
Santa’s Office
We see a desk…but just barely! Santa may need to go on a diet to fit into this workspace!
Christmas isn’t contained to the foyer…
Some might feel as if they’re dining in heaven. Fortunately, you don’t need to prepare any extra food for all these religious figures.
Bringing the outdoors in…
Jersey weather can get a little gray around the holidays, but not in this “green” room!
A little Italy…
Dr. Munger explained that her family’s ancestors hail from Italy. As an homage, she’s tried to replicate the beauty of the country’s artistic creations, churches, and stonework.
Curated with care
A principal and superintendent of NJ public schools, Dr. Munger, with her brother’s help, was able to achieve her wish: creating a home that embodies Christmas.
“I have always wanted to make life beautiful in every way possible for all those I love and all those in my care,” she explained.
Looks like she’s done it—in a big way!
