About this home
402 Central Avenue, Barnegat Light — Where the Island’s Edge Holds a Legacy. At the far northern tip of Long Beach Island, where Central Avenue meets the horizon and the Atlantic greets the Barnegat Inlet, sits 402 Central Avenue—a home that doesn’t just overlook the water… it belongs to it. Perched on a brick foundation that whispers of an earlier era, this 1986-built oceanfront has always stood on sacred ground. Before this structure rose, another home occupied this very footprint—a reminder that this location has been coveted for generations. It’s easy to understand why: few homes embrace both the Atlantic Ocean and the Inlet, giving you an ever-changing panorama of tides, colors, and life on the water. Barnegat Light itself is unlike any other corner of the Jersey Shore. A Nordic fishing village founded in the 1600s, the town still moves with the rhythm of the sea. The hum of commercial fishing boats. The flash of gulls tracing the shoreline. The lighthouse—Old Barney—standing guard as it has for more than 150 years. Here, life feels both timeless and alive. At the end of Central Avenue in 08006, 402 Central is the final chapter of the island’s northern edge. A home built for sunrise watchers, storm lovers, boat spotters, and anyone who feels pulled toward the water. Inside, the home captures that spirit—open, effortless, and drenched in natural light, with sightlines that keep the ocean in constant conversation. Step onto the decks and feel the salt air roll in. Watch the fishing fleet return at dusk. Let the sound of the breakers anchor you. This is more than a property. It’s a heritage home on heritage ground. A front-row seat to LBI’s most dramatic landscapes. And an invitation to write the next chapter on one of the most storied blocks in Barnegat Light. 402 Central Ave — where land ends, water begins, and history lives on.
