The Gardens Condominiums

Bradley Beach is a one-square-mile borough on the Jersey Shore where the year-round population of roughly 4,300 swells to nearly 30,000 each summer, giving the town a distinct dual identity that shapes everything from its housing stock to its Main Street energy. Tucked between Asbury Park to the north and Ocean Grove to the south in Monmouth County, it sits about 60 miles from New York City and is reachable by NJ Transit's North Jersey Coast Line, making it a workable base for commuters who want salt air as part of their daily routine. The borough's compact grid of streets is lined with historic cottages, Victorian-era homes converted into apartments, and smaller apartment communities that draw both seasonal renters and year-round residents looking for a quieter alternative to neighboring shore towns.
