Point Pleasant Beach is a unique oceanfront and bayfront community positioned on the narrow strip of land that separates Barnegat Bay from the wide open Atlantic Ocean. Unsurprising from its picturesque position fronting on both the protected waters of the bay and the wild Atlantic, Point Pleasant Beach real estate encompasses some of the most exclusive, priciest homes not only in New Jersey but in the nation as a whole.
And what’s not to love? The historic neighborhoods that make up Point Pleasant Beach offers an astounding wealth of luxury waterfront properties, with Bayfront homes overlooking the protected waters of the bay, and oceanfront homes enjoying ample, unrestricted access to the Atlantic.
Thrilling Attractions to Enjoy!
Among the community’s star attractions is without a doubt the beach. Routinely heralded as a top beach for the family, the pristine sandy beaches run alongside the infamous Jerkinson’s Boardwalk, a mile long stretch of historic boardwalk, running from the Manasquan Inlet all the way to New Jersey Avenue.
First constructed in the final years of the 19th century, the boardwalk is a vibrant highlight of this community’s entertainment scene. The mile-long stretch features enjoyable carnival rides, ample pizza parlors and ice cream shops and of course an arcade. Highlights include the Jenkinson Aquarium, an always popular attraction for the kids, as well as Martells Tiki Bar for the older crowd, featuring ideal beachfront seating for the best enjoyment of the stunning sunset over the ocean.
Beautiful Homes in a Historic Beachfront Setting
The borough of Point Pleasant Beach is a distinct community from neighboring Point Pleasant. It was incorporated as a borough in 1886 and has a population of around 5000 year-round residents. This number swells significantly each year in the summertime, as Point Pleasant Beach has established itself as a premiere vacation destination of the celebrated Jersey Shore of New Jersey. A number of resorts and Jersey Shore rental properties serve as an ideal home base for travelers.
Point Pleasant Beach has some spectacular homes for sale and the market is great! Compared to last year, home prices are selling at much higher prices with plenty of prime, oceanfront and bayfront real estate changing hands.
It’s easy to see why - Point Pleasant Beach boasts a stellar collection of classically styled character homes and newer homes designed to take full advantage of their breathtaking surroundings. Also, the small waterfront community offers some fantastic condominiums that delightfully line the boardwalk, offering residents unrestricted access to the dynamic energy and engaging nightlife offered by this premier location.
