Delanco offers laid-back living on Delaware River
Crossing the Rancocas-Delanco Bridge leads into Delanco, a small riverfront community that blends residential comfort with outdoor recreation. “It has a small-town type of feel,” says Michelle Sholette, Realtor with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Fox & Roach-Medford and resident. “You can walk across town pretty easily, and it's dog and kid friendly.” Without leaving the community, locals can spend time at the riverfront parks, drop the boat in and stop by the restaurants along Burlington Avenue. Its location along NJ Transit’s River Line also supports convenient commutes into Philadelphia or Trenton.
Houses in Delanco dont have docks so the Hawk Island Marina is a go to to park your boats.

Boating, beaches and parks get keep residents active
Boating is popular among locals, and Hawkeye Island is home to one of the area’s several marinas. “There are no docks or marinas allowed on the Delaware, so you have to boat down the Rancocas Creek out to the river,” Sholette says. “The island also has walking trails everywhere, and a lot of people will go there to hang down at the beach,” Sholette says. Pennington Park on Creek Road offers an extensive trail network open to cyclists and dogs, a series of playgrounds and an established community garden. The park connects to the Rancocas Greenway Trail, which runs along the creek, and sidewalks along Delaware Avenue provide sweeping views of the river. “You can walk the entire length [of the avenue], and there’s not a lot of traffic there,” Sholette says. “It’s just stunning.”
Hawk Island sits right along the Lehigh River between Pennsylvania and Delanco.
Delanco locals love going for a long walk at the West Avenue Nature Trails.

From Cape Cods and Colonial Revivals to townhouses
Old-growth trees and sidewalks line the residential streets of Delanco. The community primarily consists of single-family homes built during the late 19th century through the 20th century. Architecture ranges from Cape Cods and Natioanl Folk to Colonial Revivals and ranch styles. Lots typically fall around a quarter-acre, and most come with fenced-in backyards. These Single-family homes typically range from $200,000 to $500,000, but waterfront properties tend to price higher. "They are drop-dead phenomenal, and they can sell over $1 million," Sholette says. Townhouses are also available, including within Newton’s Landing, a 55-plus community. The median price for a townhouse is $510,000.
Brick style cape cods sit on private lots nearby to many local parks and schools.
Newer townhomes are affordably priced and right along the water.

Sholette also notes Loui's Deli and The Ice Cream Bar as other local favorites. Specialty shops also dot the corridor, and Meat Shoppers Supermarket in Riverside to the south covers groceries. Along U.S. Route 30 are a selection of international markets and big-box stores, including Target and Lowe’s Home Improvement.
