NEW OCEANFRONT CONSTRUCTION LISTING
CAFRA APPROVED • BUILDING PERMITS IN PLACE • SHOVEL READY

206 E 20th St, Long Beach Twp, NJ 08008
$5,999,000 | New Construction

A rare opportunity to begin construction on an approved, permit-ready oceanfront residence on Long Beach Island. Extensive pre-construction and regulatory work has already been completed, including architectural and engineering plans, surveys, site planning, development studies, CAFRA approvals, building permits, utility planning, and landscape design.

With building permits in place, this project offers a qualified purchaser the opportunity to move directly toward construction while avoiding much of the time and uncertainty typically associated with oceanfront approvals and development.

Designed specifically for its beachfront setting, the residence features a distinctive pilot house rising to approximately 40 feet, creating an exceptional upper-level destination with expansive coastal surroundings. The rooftop design includes a built-in recessed jacuzzi and dedicated outdoor living space for relaxing and entertaining.

At ground level, the entertainment area extends from beneath the residence into the yard, creating a private coastal oasis designed for outdoor dining, lounging, entertaining, and everyday beach living.

Manahawkin Town Home, Just Listed. 3BR.s, 2.5B's, 1960 Sq ft.
$485,000 - 197 Melanie Way, Manahawkin, NJ, 08050

Why Buyers Are Gravitating Toward Towns Just Off LBI, because they’re finally realizing something the locals have known for years: you can get more house, more land, more parking, and more flexibility for a fraction of the price. LBI’s inventory has been historically tight—especially in the last few years—so when a well‑priced home hits the island, it’s gone instantly.

That pressure pushes many buyers to widen their search radius, and the first place they look is Manahawkin, Ocean Acres, Beach Haven West, and the surrounding mainland communities. These areas offer newer construction, larger floor plans, garages, yards, and modern amenities that simply don’t exist in most older LBI housing stock. You’re still minutes from the Causeway, but you’re not paying the premium for being physically on the sand.

Another major driver is value diversity. On LBI, choices are limited: older capes, raised ranches, or multimillion‑dollar new builds. Off‑island, buyers can choose between single‑family homes, waterfront lagoon properties, townhomes, condos, and planned communities with pools, gyms, and maintenance packages. That variety attracts everyone from first‑time buyers to retirees to investors. Many buyers also appreciate the lower taxes, easier parking, and the ability to get more square footage without sacrificing proximity to the beach.

Townhomes and condos in these mainland areas sell fast because they hit the sweet spot of affordability and convenience. They’re low‑maintenance, often updated, and perfect for buyers who want a vacation‑style lifestyle without the upkeep of a full single‑family home. Inventory is extremely limited, and demand is high—especially among buyers who want a lock‑and‑leave property, a second home, or a starter option near LBI. When something clean, modern, and reasonably priced hits the market, it’s gone in days because it solves the biggest problem buyers face: getting close to LBI without paying LBI prices.
