525 Ocean Blvd

Ocean Plaza is a low-rise, single-story condominium complex on Long Branch’s West End beachfront, completed in 1990 and built around compact one-bedroom floorplates alongside larger multi-bedroom residences. The property presents a straightforward coastal architecture with elevated terraces and long balconies that maximize water views and southern exposure. Interiors commonly feature built-in millwork, eat-in kitchens, recessed lighting, crown molding details, and private terraces; many units have in-unit laundry, marble or granite surfaces in updated kitchens and baths, and hardwood flooring. Shared spaces emphasize recreation and coastal living: an outdoor saltwater pool, hot tub, saunas, fitness room, social/club room, bike storage, and additional private storage for residents. Building systems include controlled access, underground garage parking with reserved spaces, elevator service, and on-site management. Exterior amenities cater to shore access and convenience with direct beach access, beach passes included in HOA, outdoor grilling and shower areas, lighting and storm protections, and landscaped sprinkler systems. The association enforces pet and occupancy restrictions and maintains communal services that produce a resort-style, maintenance-managed coastal lifestyle within walking distance of Pier Village, shops, dining, public transit and regional institutions such as Monmouth University and Monmouth Medical Center.
