Beverly is a residential New Jersey community close to the state line
On the shores of the Delaware River, Beverly is a New Jersey community that serves as a geographic midpoint between Trenton and Philadelphia. Residential streets make up much of Beverly but give way to the heavily wooded West Avenue Nature Trails along the river, and the city of Burlington is a short drive up the riverside. “Beverly is a small town,” says Trish Gesswein, the broker of record in New Jersey for Houwzer Inc. “The city of Burlington is right on the Delaware, too, and it’s really like one of those hidden gems. It’s very pretty down there; they have waterfront restaurants and good shopping.” The suburban atmosphere, combined with Beverly’s proximity to Burlington and near-equidistance to the two closest major cities, draws residents to the riverside community.
Beverly sits between Trenton and Philadelphia.
Beginning as a ferry port, Beverly has sprouted into a thriving community just outside of Philadelphia.

Restaurants along Route 130 south of Beverly
Within the neighborhood, locals can stop for a bite to eat at Tacobirria Mexican Fast Food, Riccardo’s Pizza & Restaurant or the Beverly Athletic Club.

Nearly equal distance from Trenton and Philadelphia

The closest on-ramp to Interstate 95 sits around 5 miles north across the Delaware River. “It’s very convenient,” Gesswein says. “There are a lot of major highways over there. It’s not too far from the New Jersey Turnpike, 295 and 130. It’s very easy to get to any major highway wherever you’re deciding to go.” Drivers can access both the New Jersey Turnpike and Interstate 295 between 6 and 7 miles south of Beverly. NJ Transit buses make stops along Route 130 just outside of the community.

It also offers tennis and basketball courts. Just across the western boundary of Beverly, hikers can take to the West Avenue Nature Trails.

There are a lot of cute things always going on in the area.” Closer to Beverly, the Burlington County Amphitheater is close to the library and hosts a free summer concert series, which takes place every Friday and Saturday most weeks from late June through August.
