A 1.5-acre LI-2 Light Industrial parcel on Monmouth Road in Ocean County, offered with the survey already done and a sealed concept plan in hand, an 8,400 SF flex building that works as one tenant or splits cleanly into two.
Why 887 Monmouth Road
Industrially zoned land is scarce in this part of Ocean County, and most of what trades is raw. This one arrives with a completed boundary and topographic survey and a concept plan sealed by a licensed New Jersey professional engineer.
Monmouth Road is County Route 537, the east-west county spine linking Ocean, Monmouth and Burlington. The second Tri-County Crossroads property, ten minutes from the first.
Boundary and topographic survey completed by a licensed New Jersey land surveyor, metes, bounds and grades already established for Block 41, Lot 23.01.
The 8,400 SF concept building is drawn to work whole for an owner-occupant or split into two units for an investor, 90% warehouse to 10% office as parked.
At 40.4% proposed lot coverage against a 50% maximum, the plan leaves real yard and circulation, the part of an industrial site that is hardest to find in Central Jersey.

The two pre-existing conditions. The parcel is 1.5 acres against a 2-acre minimum and 240 feet deep against a 400-foot minimum. Both are conditions of the existing lot rather than anything the concept creates, and the engineer marks both with an existing-variance note. A buyer should confirm with Plumsted Township how they carry forward for the intended use.
The zoning table’s vintage. These standards are as shown on the concept plan prepared in August 2022. Verify them against the current LI-2 schedule and permitted-use list with the Plumsted Township Land Use Board before relying on them, along with anything the Township has amended since.
Utilities and septic. Confirm water service and on-site septic design capacity with the Township and the Ocean County Health Department for your intended use and headcount.
