9 Harding Long Beach Township, NJ 08008

Rarely available in Holgate's southernmost end, just steps from some of Long Beach Island's widest and most secluded beaches, 9 W Harding Avenue offers a level of privacy, outdoor living, and coastal lifestyle that is becoming increasingly difficult to find. This is the kind of home buyers wait for. Just 5 houses from the ocean with views of both Barnegat Bay and the Atlantic Ocean! Wake to ocean breezes, walk or bike to quiet stretches of shoreline, and spend your afternoons poolside in a private backyard designed for effortless entertaining. Thoughtfully finished with low-maintenance turf, a resort-style pool, and multiple lounge areas, the outdoor space delivers a true extension of the home-offering a setting that feels more like a private retreat than a typical beach house. Inside, a reverse-living layout captures natural light and coastal airflow throughout the main living areas. The top floor opens into a bright, vaulted great room where living, dining, and kitchen spaces with upgraded appliances come together seamlessly-designed for both relaxed living and hosting at scale. Sliding doors lead directly to expansive decking, creating an easy indoor-outdoor flow that defines the LBI lifestyle. With approximately 2,400 square feet, four bedrooms, and three and a half baths, the home comfortably accommodates family and guests without compromise. The primary suite offers a quiet, private escape, while additional bedrooms are well-positioned for flexibility. A secondary living area on the lower level provides valuable bonus space-ideal for a media room, guest lounge, or overflow during peak summer weekends. What sets this property apart is the combination of location and livability. Holgate is widely regarded as the island's most peaceful and nature-driven setting, bordered by protected land and miles of untouched shoreline. It offers a slower pace, uncrowded beaches, and a level of privacy that is nearly impossible to replicate elsewhere on Long Beach Island-yet remains just minutes from the restaurants, shops, and energy of Beach Haven. At the same time, demand for homes with meaningful outdoor space-particularly those offering pools and usable yard areas-continues to outpace supply in this section of the island. That gap is only widening. Whether you are seeking a true family retreat, a high-end summer escape, or a long-term hold in one of LBI's most tightly held locations, this property checks boxes that rarely align in a single offering. Opportunities like this do not come around often in Holgate-and when they do, they do not last. Ask about furniture and the specification sheet!
