The Dunes, real estate

The Dunes is a neighborhood section that is part of Long Beach Township and is on the south end of Long Beach Island. It is positioned in between Haven Beach and Beach Haven Terrace. It has a higher percentage of large lot sizes and homes on lagoons, all within close proximity to Beach Haven Park, Beach Haven Terrace, and Beach Haven’s amenities, making this neighborhood a fan favorite.

The Dunes is a neighborhood section that has held its value and appreciated very consistently in the Long Beach Island real estate market. Buyers are drawn to this area because it appeals to a broad range of people who love spending time on LBI and want a neighborhood that checks many important boxes.

While the north end of LBI is known for having most of the lagoon front homes, buyers who prefer the south end and want lagoon frontage often find fewer options. The Dunes solves that problem. The neighborhood features a large man made lagoon with homes along three streets, and these properties sit on oversized lots compared to much of the south end of the island.

The Dunes continues to command strong value thanks to several key factors. The beaches are clean, wide, and well maintained, the neighborhood has no commercial presence which creates a calm residential feel, and it offers close proximity to the amenities found in nearby towns. Buyers also appreciate the cape cod style homes that run down a majority of the oceanblocks, which gives the neighborhood unique character within Long Beach Township.

Because of its strong appeal, The Dunes has sold for an average of 18.8 percent higher than the rest of Long Beach Township over the last five years.
