The full picture AI research · Nov 1, 2026
A new single-family detached house is proposed at 3 Berkeley Terrace in Livingston Township, Essex County. County planning records list one new home with a reported construction cost of about $9.0 million. That is a very large figure for a single house.
The records also list about 73,391 square feet of non-residential floor area. That number is unusually large for one home and may be a data error or may count something other than living space. Its meaning could not be confirmed.
The records do not say what is on the lot now, who will live there, or who is building it. No news coverage, township meeting records, or builder pages about this address were found, so nothing is known about opposition or approvals.
What it could mean nearby
- Construction traffic and deliveries on Berkeley Terrace are likely while the house is built, but no project-specific details were found.
- The project adds one home. No effect on schools or utilities is documented.
Where it stands
A filing with the county was recorded on 2025-12-08. No township approval or decision was found online. Next steps usually include local zoning or building review, then permits, then construction.
