Oceanfront Homes for Sale in Manalapan

 As of today, there are nine oceanfront homes for sale in Manalapan ranging in price from $6 million to $35,900,000.  Below is a table with some basic information on the homes for sale.

Just some quick points on the table:
Liv SF = this is the square footage under air.  This is the most important sq ft number
Total Bldg SF = this is total square footage, non-a/c sq ft
BR = bedrooms
Ttl Baths = total baths.  The number after the decimal is the number of half baths in a house.  So 6.1 baths = 6 full and 1 half bath.  Or 9.3 is 9 full baths and 3 half baths.
DOM = Days on Market
CDOM = Collective Days on Market

In the piece I did called "A Super Agent's Cryptonite," I spoke about stale listings.  Comparing the DOM vs. CDOM is the easiest way to see if a home has been previously listed.  Be forewarned, there are tricks many agents do to hide this fact, and a good buyers’ agents will know how to research a property's history.

OK, back to Manalapan.  The great thing about Manalapan is that not only are the homes on the ocean, but the majority have water frontage on the Intracoastal waterway (ICW) as well.  This is great for people that have yachts, speed boats and/or sport-fishingboats.  The only home above that is listed as not having ICW access is 1 Ocean Lane, which is one of the factors making it the least expensive home currently for sale.

There are currently 3 homes showing up as under contract in Manalapan, but two of the homes are Don King’s (listed at $19.995 million) - the home had previously been listed in 2009 for $27.5 million.

And finally, let’s see oceanfront homes in Manalapan that have sold year to date (over the last six months) 

 Here's a nice aerial shot of the home.  Looks quite impressive and with it selling in approximately 6 - 8 weeks of being listed, that is a  positive sign for the luxury oceanfront real estate market in Florida.
