Long Beach Township was hit hard during Hurricane Sandy in 2012, but you wouldn't know it to look at these three estates. These homes on the island are closest to the community of Loveladies, between Barnegat Light and Harvey Cedars. They exemplify the varieties of architecture — and asking prices — that indicate serious recovery in the area.

Tell me all about it: At about 7,000 square feet and with eight bedrooms, this new home has room for the entire family — and maybe some friends. The property boasts a kitchen with dual refrigerators (plus a kitchenette in the second living room), multiple decks, multiple outdoor kitchens, two in-ground pools, five gas fire pits, a private putting green and a basketball court. There's also a separate guest house. It's no wonder the property is called "The Compound"; you might never make it to the beach.
