    What's special

    Full basementOne-story single-family residenceHigh-visibility state highway location
    Rare C2-Zoned property on NJ Route 79 / South Main Street — sold as-is with professional-office adaptive reuse potential. This 20,670-square-foot (0.47-acre) C2-zoned lot at 17 South Main Street, Marlboro, NJ offers a unique opportunity for a buyer seeking commercial frontage on one of Marlboro's busiest corridors. The property currently consists of an existing one-story single-family residence with a full basement, situated on a lot with 129.73 ft of frontage on NJ Route 79. Property is being sold AS-IS as an existing residential structure. The concept renderings shown in the photos are illustrative only — they depict one possible adaptive-reuse vision for the site and are not approved plans. Any conversion to commercial or professional-office use would require the buyer to obtain all necessary approvals, permits, and variances from Marlboro Township, Monmouth County, and the State of New Jersey. What makes this property special: • C2 Commercial zoning — one of the few residential-looking properties on Route 79 with commercial zoning, allowing professional office, medical office, and other permitted C2 uses (subject to Township approval) • 129.73 ft of Route 79 frontage — high-visibility state highway location in Marlboro's southeastern corridor • Existing structure — one-story framed house) with full basement, already on site — potential foundation for adaptive reuse • KF2T April 2022 topographic survey available — professional land survey on file, saving the buyer time and cost • Concept site plans and 3D renderings available — showing east-side parking, ADA-accessible covered patio entry, and a modern farmhouse-style exterior renovation (buyer must engage their own architect/engineer and obtain Township approval) Total: 20,670 sq ft / 0.47 acres Important disclosures: • Property is sold AS-IS as an existing residential structure • All concept renderings are for illustration only and are not approved plans • Buyer must obtain all necessary approvals from Marlboro Township (Zoning Officer, Planning Board, Zoning Board of Adjustment), Monmouth County, NJDOT, NJDEP, and other applicable agencies before any commercial conversion • A pre-application inquiry has been submitted to the Marlboro Township Zoning Officer for written confirmation of permitted uses is pending • Existing KF2T April 2022 survey and concept site plans are available to qualified buyers upon request
