Edgewater Park offers convenient living south of the Delaware River
Before Edgewater Park was officially founded in 1924, affluent Philadelphians had already built custom estates on the shores of the Delaware River. In the years that followed, the Burlington County suburb expanded southward to U.S. Route 30, the area’s main drag for shopping and dining. Today, residents still value proximity to the river and public green spaces. Short trips lead to downtown Philadelphia and Trenton, and a NJ Transit rail station supports locals making the daily commute.

From public green spaces to river beaches and Hawk Island Marina
Roosevelt Park is home to a nature trail that leads to a fishing pond next to the community’s signature water tower. Hawk Island Marina is 4 miles away, with a public launch for dropping a boat into the Rancocas Creek. “They don’t allow marinas on the Delaware River, but you can take the creek right on out to the river,” says Michelle Sholette, a Realtor with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Fox & Roach-Medford who owns multiple properties in the area. The island is also home to wooded trails and a sandy beach, a popular local hangout. Weimann Sports Field features a small park complex with baseball diamonds, playgrounds, basketball hoops and tennis courts.
Boating is a way of life for some along the waterways of Edgewater Park.

A variety of housing single-family homes and townhouses
The median home sale price in Edgewater Park is $335,000 for a single-family home and $360,000 for a townhouse. Suburban streets curve throughout the bulk of the area, as single-family homes and townhouses sit back from sidewalks. Meanwhile, midcentury ranch-style and split-level homes feature fenced-in backyards and two-car driveways. Houses on the north side can date back to the late 1800s, with architecture ranging from Colonial Revival to Victorian Italianate. Lots here tend to be larger, and the tree canopies reach higher. Properties farther north, right on the waterfront, tend to be larger still, some selling for more than $1.5 million.
Many Edgewater Park homes have solar panels to help out with energy costs.

The local restaurants and big-box stores of U.S. Route 30
U.S. Route 30 frames the community’s southeastern border and serves as the main shopping and dining corridor. Chain restaurants dot the road alongside locally owned spots like Blue Claw & Seafood Eatery, which has served the area since 1960, and Golden Dawn Diner, the go-to spot for breakfast. There are also several big-box stores and an ACME Market for groceries.
Blue Claw serves smiles and hearty portions of seafood in Beverly.

Interstate 295 and an NJ Transit commuter rail station are nearby
U.S. Route 30 supports local travel and is usually traffic-free. “The road is much wider and less congested here, and it narrows once you get past Cinnaminson,” Sholette says. Interstate 295 passes to the south, connecting the area to Philadelphia, 19 miles southwest, and Trenton, 22 miles northeast. NJ Transit’s River Line runs through the community at the Beverly-Edgewater Park Station. The speed rail makes an hourlong trip into Trenton or Camden, which offers a transfer into downtown Philadelphia.
NJ Transit busses run through Buckingham Park, making commuting a breeze.
