Venue at Longview

Venue at Longview is a brand-new Lennar active adult community in Plumsted Township, a quiet corner of Ocean County, New Jersey surrounded by woodlands, farmland, and vineyards. Construction began in late 2021, and when complete the community will include 452 homes across three distinct collections: 268 single-family homes, 70 carriage homes, and 114 townhomes — giving buyers unusual flexibility in home type within a single 55+ master plan. The single-family homes range from roughly 1,728 to 2,913 square feet with 2 or 3 bedrooms, while the carriage homes and townhomes typically offer 3 bedrooms and 3 baths in the 1,997–2,111 sq ft range. Lennar's 'Everything's Included' program bundles features that are often upgrades elsewhere, and approximate property taxes run around 1.47% with an HOA of roughly $248/month across the community. Social life centers on a state-of-the-art clubhouse designed as the heart of the community. Inside, residents find a fitness center, an aerobics and dance studio, an elegant ballroom, a performance/movie theater, billiards, a café-style kitchen, and multiple multipurpose gathering and meeting rooms for card clubs, crafts, and special interest groups. Outside, a resort-style pool with sun deck anchors the amenity area, complemented by tennis courts, pickleball courts, bocce ball courts, and shuffleboard. Active clubs and programs include pickleball, bocce, tennis, shuffleboard, and regular fitness classes. The setting is decidedly rural — Venue at Longview sits just off Route 537 with Route 195 only minutes away, which in turn connects quickly to the NJ Turnpike to the west and the Garden State Parkway to the east. That central location puts residents roughly 20 minutes from everyday shopping, under an hour to Philadelphia, and within comfortable driving distance of both New York City and the Jersey Shore. Nearby attractions include Laurita Winery, Jackson Premium Outlets, Six Flags Great Adventure, the Horse Park of New Jersey, Grounds for Sculpture, and the Crosswick Creek hiking trail. Ocean County's Ocean Ride senior bus service and Reserve A Ride medical transport program add practical mobility options that residents of many other adult communities don't have. For buyers who want brand-new construction, a polished amenity package, and a peaceful small-town setting with genuine access to both urban culture and Shore beaches, Venue at Longview delivers a compelling package in a part of New Jersey that has historically had limited new 55+ inventory.
