The Home
103 Franklin Avenue is a fully custom-built residence that places you at the center of everything Long Branch has to offer — a three-minute walk to Pier Village, with its waterfront dining, boutiques, year-round energy & water views from the property. Designed and built by Prestige Custom Builders LLC, this four-bedroom, five-bath home offers ~4000 square feet of finished living space across four floors, including an elevator, the quality of construction and level of finish to match its location.
Construction
Poured concrete foundation walls, 2×6 exterior framing, OSB wall and plywood roof sheathing and Hydro Gap house wrap throughout form a tight, well-protected envelope. On the exterior, Cedar Impressions and Azek trim boards create a refined coastal look that is maintenance free. A solid mahogany front door with sidelights and matching aluminum garage door makes the entry unmistakable. The roof is finished with Timberline Lifetime dimensional shingles and a standing-seam metal accent — durable and distinctly sharp — with galvalume half round gutters & round leaders completes the package.
Windows & Light
Andersen casement windows and sliding doors, placed throughout the home to draw in natural light and coastal air. Quarter-lite rear doors with locksets and deadbolts balance that openness with the security a home at the shore demands. Fiberglass batt insulation with full draft stopping at every window and door keeps the home comfortable year-round without compromise.
Interior Finishes
Prefinished engineered hardwood runs through the main living levels. Porcelain tile covers every bathroom floor, tub surround, and the laundry room floor. Luxury vinyl plank brings warmth and durability to the finished basement. Walls and ceilings throughout are finished in Benjamin Moore Regal Select paint, with a satin finish on all trim and doors.
Millwork & Staircase
The trim package is clean and classic, featuring 3¼-inch sanitary casing on every window and door, 5¼-inch base molding to match, and solid-core interior doors with coordinated hinges and hardware throughout. The staircase is a standout, with 2-inch square-edge white oak treads, handrail, and newel posts paired with iron balusters to create an architectural presence that anchors the home’s interior.
Kitchen & Bathrooms
The kitchen is built around custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, and a matching quartz backsplash — a clean, high-end foundation for a Thermador stainless steel appliance suite that includes a 36-inch range, 2 dishwashers, microwave/wall oven combo and undermount sinks. Every bathroom carries the same standard: custom vanities, undermount sinks, quartz tops, Signature bath faucets and fixtures to match.
mechanical systems
Two independently zoned, HVAC systems that are sized for maximum efficiency and controlled by Honeywell programmable thermostats. The electrical package includes a 200-amp service panel, whole-home 4″ LED recessed lighting, code-compliant smoke & carbon monoxide detectors and EV car charger. A complete alarm system with keypad, door contacts, motion sensors, and siren. Hot water is handled by an on-demand, instant-hot heater, with two frost-free exterior hose bibs, and a domestic fire suppression system, providing families additional peace of mind.
Additional Features
A 36-inch natural gas fireplace with custom mantle, hearth, and surround anchors the living space and creates a warm gathering point. Custom closet shelving is built throughout the home. The two-car garage features insulated doors with openers and remotes. The front of the home is fully landscaped with sod and an in-ground sprinkler system, along with an asphalt driveway. The property also has pre-approved zoning for an in-ground pool.
