Set on the beach with private beach access, the home provides a rare opportunity to enjoy the shoreline as part of everyday life. The surrounding neighborhood blends established elegance with the vibrancy of Pier Village, offering fine dining, cafés, boutiques, and an oceanfront promenade close by. Walkable access to houses of worship and a strong sense of neighborhood identity enhance the appeal of this refined setting. An opportunity in one of Long Branch's most desirable and enduring waterfront neighborhoods Located within one of Long Branch's most prestigious gated oceanfront communities, 17 Riviera Drive offers a rare opportunity to enjoy refined coastal living in the heart of the coveted West End.
This premier waterfront enclave has long been recognized for its privacy, security, and classic elegance, creating an environment that feels both exclusive and welcoming. Residents enjoy the rare combination of a gated setting, direct beach access, and a strong sense of communityan increasingly difficult combination to find along the New Jersey shoreline.
The home itself has been elegantly and completely renovated, offering a turn-key living experience that blends timeless design with modern comfort. Every detail has been thoughtfully considered, resulting in interiors that feel sophisticated, warm, and effortlessly livable. The renovation delivers the ease of new construction without sacrificing the character and scale that define this established oceanfront community.
Living spaces are designed for both everyday comfort and gracious entertaining. The layout flows naturally, allowing gatherings to feel intimate or expansive as the occasion requires. Natural light fills the interiors, enhancing the sense of openness and connection throughout the home.
One of the defining features of this property is its direct private beach access. The ability to step from your community directly onto the sand transforms daily life. Morning walks along the shoreline, afternoons by the water, and evening sunsets become part of a natural rhythm rather than a special occasion. Few properties offer this level of seamless beachfront access in such a controlled and private setting.
The West End location further elevates the lifestyle. Long regarded as one of Long Branch's most established and desirable neighborhoods, the West End blends classic coastal charm with the energy of a community that continues to evolve. Tree-lined streets, architectural character, and a strong neighborhood identity create an atmosphere that feels both timeless and vibrant.
Just moments away, Pier Village has become a central gathering point for dining, shopping, and social life. Fine restaurants, cafés, boutiques, and the oceanfront promenade provide a walkable extension of daily living. Whether meeting friends for dinner, enjoying a morning coffee by the ocean, or taking an evening stroll, the surrounding lifestyle is as important as the home itself.
The location also offers walkable access to houses of worship, adding another layer of flexibility and appeal for buyers who value community connection as part of their daily routine.
What truly distinguishes 17 Riviera Drive is its balance.
It offers:
The privacy and security of a gated oceanfront community
The ease of a fully renovated, move-in-ready residence
The rare luxury of private beach access
The cultural, dining, and lifestyle energy of Pier Village
The enduring appeal of the West End
For a primary residence, it provides a setting that supports both everyday life and elegant entertaining. For a second home, it offers a true coastal retreat that requires no compromise. And for long-term ownership, it represents a scarce opportunity to secure a position within one of Long Branch's most established oceanfront communities.
This is not simply a renovated home on the beach.
It is an opportunity to live within a premier gated waterfront setting, where elegance, lifestyle, and location converge in a way that few properties can offer.
