Brant Point Construction Begins

Denholtz Properties has broken ground on a collection of 16 luxury homes in Atlantic Highlands, seeking to lure buyers with what it describes as Nantucket-style living along Sandy Hook Bay.

Known as Brant Point, the custom-designed, single-family dwellings will occupy seven acres just west of Avenue D and north of Center Avenue. Each will have four bedrooms and multiple bathrooms, with floorplans ranging from 2,601 to 3,473 square feet and outdoor spaces for year-round entertainment, Denholtz said, while residents will have easy access to Seastreak Ferry service providing a one-hour trip to New York City.

The Red Bank-based developer joined project partners, investors and prospective residents this week to mark the start of construction at the property, noting that the first homes are slated to be completed in early 2025.

“We are thrilled to begin construction of Brant Point, a community that will epitomize coastal living at its finest,” said Steven Denholtz, CEO of Denholtz Properties. “With its stunning views and carefully crafted homes, Brant Point offers residents a harmonious blend of Nantucket-inspired charm and modern luxury. We are confident that this enclave will not only redefine waterfront living in Atlantic Highlands but also set a new standard for coastal communities throughout Monmouth County.”

The firm has tapped Deborah James of Sotheby’s International Realty as sales director for the project, which was designed by Spiezle Architectural Group and will have touches such as a slate feature wall with a gas fireplace, a full chef’s kitchen with an open pantry and landscaping with an irrigation system. Some homes will also have elevator options and two-car garages, while residents have the option to add a gunite pool.
