NextImg:Joe Pesci’s NJ home was demolished — 2 homes are taking its place

Joe Pesci’s longtime New Jersey home has been demolished, and two homes are being built in its place, The Post has learned.

Pesci, 80, sold the vintage-style home in December 2021 for $5 million to Richard DiTaranto, a partner at Northern Advisory Group, and his wife, Kimberly. Pesci purchased it in 1994 for $850,000.

Located on a small island in the Jersey Shore town of Lavallette, the art deco beachfront home was built in 1990.

The white house, which resembled some sort of spaceship, stood out among neighboring homes.

New photos show that a year after the new owners purchased the property, the home was demolished with the intent to split the parcel into two properties.

The new owners have already built one home with its own double boat dock. They sold the other parcel in October for $2.7 million.

Located at 91 Pershing Blvd., the new single-family home is three stories and bathed in nude tones. Mature trees dot the property, which features a pool, spa, and putting green.

It is unclear if it will be listed for sale or if the DiTarantos plan on holding onto it.

The Post has reached out to Richard DiTaranto for comment.

It’s also unclear where Pesci relocated — another home in the township of Brick is associated with his trust. The Post has reached out to his reps for comment.

The Oscar winner’s demolished home consisted of eight bedrooms and eight bathrooms and occupied 7,000 square feet.

Before selling it, the “Goodfellas” star sparred with his Jersey Shore neighbors over the length of their proposed docks.

Pesci wrote a letter opposing two new docks that would extend 315 feet into Barnegat Bay, urging state officials to scrap the construction plans “before it’s too late.”

Located on West Point Island, the waterfront abode underwent several upgrades, including the addition of a private elevator and luxury bathroom and the transformation into an open-floor plan, according to the listing.

Pesci, a Newark native, came out of retirement in 2019 for the critically acclaimed Netflix film “The Irishman,” for which he was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor.

He also played Pete Davidson’s grumpy, yet loving grandpa in the new Peacock series “Bupkis.”

The “Raging Bull” actor announced his retirement in 1999, five years after he purchased the waterfront home.
