Property Description
Set high on the hillside near the historic Twin Lights, 91 Highland Avenue offers a rare chance to build a one-of-a-kind luxury residence. The setting delivers a commanding, panoramic view of Sandy Hook Bay, the Atlantic Ocean and the New York City skyline. It is a true million-dollar view, and few places along the entire Eastern Seaboard can replicate it.
The 5,184 SF lot fronts two streets, with Highland Avenue below and Twin Lights Terrace above. Architectural plans by Catherine Franco, AIA show what the site can become: a custom home that steps down the hill, with a two-bay garage on Highland Avenue and a front entry reached by a bridge from Twin Lights Terrace.
The plans show approximately 3,300 SF of living space across two levels. A great room with a fireplace opens through three sets of French doors to a full-width balcony. The kitchen is anchored by a long island, open to the dining room. The primary suite includes a walk-in closet, a bath with a corner tub and a private balcony. A viewing balcony set into the roof is designed for the skyline.
The plans were drawn in 2003. A buyer would need to take them back through the Borough of Highlands approval process, including zoning board review. With the right vision, the effort is well rewarded. The result would be a home built around a view that simply cannot be found elsewhere.
The location is ideal for a New York City executive. The Seastreak ferry in Highlands reaches Manhattan in about 45 minutes. Netflix's new $1 billion studio campus, now under construction at Fort Monmouth, is a short drive away. Closer to home, Highlands offers waterfront restaurants, cafes, bars and shops along Bay Avenue, with the Sandy Hook beaches just across the bridge.
91 Highland Avenue stands as a rare canvas for a signature home above the bay.
