Horse farms, estates and large lots define Colts Neck. We design and engineer new homes, additions and renovations that suit them.
Colts Neck Township covers about 32 square miles of Monmouth County and has long been known for its equestrian farms. Wooded areas were developed with colonials and ranches on acre lots from the 1950s to the 1970s, and from the 1980s onward much farmland gave way to large houses and estates. With no public water or sewer, most homes sit on minimum lots of two, five or ten acres, and it ranks among the highest income towns in the state.
Large homes on large lots need structure, site and design planned together, from long spans and complex roofs to septic and well locations. Our architects and engineers do both.
Licensed architects and professional engineers on one team, one contract and one set of signed and sealed drawings. See all of our services.

Whole house and partial renovations, wall removals and open plans, basements and attics, with structure and systems designed in house.
Ground up single family homes and teardown rebuilds, from site planning to sealed construction drawings.
Decks, covered porches, pergolas and garages engineered for footings, ledgers and loads.
Beam replacements, foundation fixes and engineer's letters for homeowners, buyers and insurers.
In New Jersey, most additions and structural renovations need zoning approval from the town before the construction permit, and the construction permit itself is reviewed under the state Uniform Construction Code. When a design needs relief from a setback, coverage or height limit, it goes to the town's land use board for a variance hearing.
Because homes rely on private wells and septic systems, additions and new houses have to be planned around those systems and their setbacks. We address them before design.
Brooks such as Yellow Brook, Mine Brook and Hop Brook bring stream buffers to some properties. We check them early.
However your project is approved, we deliver signed and sealed drawings to you, support you and your contractor through the permit submission and answer the building department's review comments in house. Read how a project moves from consultation to close out on our process page.
