Looking for your first home can be daunting as you consider location, size and of course, price. However, first-time buyers have found success in Ewing.

"It's the perfect place for first-time home buyers because of the affordability," says Lisa Theodore, a Compass Relator. "Home prices are more affordable in Ewing than in other areas of the greater Princeton area."

Cape Cod houses dot along Ewing's residential streets, most priced between $200,000 and $350,000. A newly built colonial with three bedrooms and three baths costs about $425,000. Those looking for smaller spaces have condos as an option. But you’ll probably have to act fast.

"Everything sells fast in New Jersey, period," Theodore says. "[Homes receive] multiple offers [but] it depends on the condition. If you have homes that have been updated, homes that are staged and well taken care of, those are usually gone within the first week."

In addition to home prices, location also draws residents to Ewing, Theodore says. Ewing residents can easily access New York, Princeton and Philadelphia thanks to the nearby major roadways. Residents can live minutes from the Delaware River. The Trenton-Mercer Airport is also right in town.

Enjoy a picnic lunch on a lovely spring day at John S. Watson Park. Take a stroll around the park as children burn off energy on the playground. There are also places to barbecue if you spend the entire day there. Or, if a round of golf is your pleasure, try out the green at Mountain View, a public golf course. Washington Crossing State Park is nearby, where George Washington crossed the Delaware River in 1776. You can hike and visit a museum on the grounds.

When it’s time to refuel, Ewing has a wide selection of eateries, from "restaurants overlooking the river, fast food and there's in-between mom & pop owned places," Theodore said. "Ewing has a diverse variety of local restaurants where you can get a good meal. From Mexican to American to pancake houses." Enjoy Mediterranean-inspired dishes on Erini Restaurant’s outdoor patio as you watch the sunset on the Delaware river. You can dine in an old Victorian mansion at Blooming Grove Inn, an elevated Americana restaurant.

Neighborhood children attend Ewing Public Schools, including Ewing High School. During high school, eligible students can enroll in up to five college courses at The College of New Jersey, Rider University and Mercer County Community College. The College of New Jersey, conveniently located in Ewing, is ranked as the top public school in the Northern United States, according to U.S. News World & Report. Ewing is also home to Marie H. Katzenbach School for the Deaf has educated children from pre-kindergarten to age 21 for over a century.

Don't let the stress of purchasing a first home keep you from looking. In Ewing, you could find a place to call home where you can enjoy the location, restaurants and access to the Delaware River.
