Yesterday, Shorebeat reported on the real estate boom<\/a> that is enveloping Ocean County’s northern barrier island. Today, we have some extra proof that it’s a seller’s market.<\/p>\n

Residents of Lavallette’s West Point Island are getting a new neighbor, and losing a particularly notable one. Real estate records show actor Joe Pesci, who bought a property on Pershing Boulevard in 1994, has sold the home for $6.5 million. The sale was first reported by the New York Post<\/a> and confirmed by Shorebeat through the Ocean County Clerk’s Office. The $6.5 million sale price represented the “Goodfellas” actor’s full asking price. The property had been on the market since 2019. The home originally sold for $850,000.<\/p>\n

The home is formally assessed at $3.2 million by the borough, which generated a $26,402 property tax bill last year \u2013 among the lowest in New Jersey for a home at that value. The six-bedroom contemporary is located on a 100-by-141 foot parcel of land.<\/p>\n

Built in 1990, the 7,200-square-foot contemporary home with an Art Deco vibe is located on West Point Island. Described as \u201cbright, airy and spacious and taking full advantage of the beautiful view,\u201d the eight-bedroom, eight-bath home has an open floor plan with large rooms perfect for large parties that spill out to the spacious pool terrace at the water\u2019s edge with boat dock beyond.<\/p>\n

The gated property is completely fenced with a large motor court that can accommodate multiple guests as well as a two-car garage for the owner. Upon entering, a dramatic free-standing curved staircase sets the stage for the living areas.<\/p>\n

With white rooms filled with light and the backdrop of the bay through floor-to-ceiling windows, the living room with its two seating areas and pianos hint at musical get togethers. The large eat-in kitchen with island is perfect for preparing large meals for dinner guests in the dining room encircled by glass doors opening to the pool terrace and bay.<\/p>\n

The comfortable media room walls are decorated with posters from Pesci\u2019s films \u2013 and because his first job was a barber, a barber\u2019s chair occupies one corner as a poignant reminder. The upper level, which can also be reached by elevator, contains bedrooms and an office, all with upper terraces and spectacular views.<\/p>\n

Pesci’s representatives have said that the Academy Award-winning actor, and North Jersey native, was selling what had been his Jersey Shore home for 30 years in order to retire to California for year-round sunshine and to get in some extra golf.<\/p>\n
