Checking what the rules allow in your town. This takes a few seconds.
An accessory dwelling unit (ADU), a granny flat, in-law suite, or backyard home, can add rental income or family space. Whether Little Silver allows one, and how big, comes down to the town’s zoning and your specific lot. Here’s what we know, and how to check yours.
We've mapped Little Silver's residential zoning. An ADU on your lot follows the town's accessory-structure standards: check your specific address for the exact size, height, and setback it allows.

New Jersey has no single statewide ADU law. Each of the state's 564 municipalities, Little Silver (Monmouth County, NJ) included, sets its own zoning for accessory dwelling units (granny flats, in-law suites, backyard homes). Whether you can build one in Little Silver, how big, and how tall depends on the town's ordinance and your specific lot. We've mapped Little Silver's residential zoning: buildings are capped around 30 ft / 2.5 stories. Your ADU follows the town's accessory-structure standards on top of that.
