Little Silver is a borough that’s gone through purposes like New Jersey native Martha Stewart goes through recipes. At different times in its life, it’s been a resort, agricultural area and fishing town before finally reaching its current phase as a largely residential area. Its position along the Shrewsbury River and the streams and creeks that branch off it draw people who want to experience life on the water. Colonials and Cape Cods with large, tree-shaded yards have replaced the neighborhood’s farms, and grand, enormous Colonial homes line its abundant waterways.

Water is at the center of life in Little Silver, and residents enjoy going out boating, fishing, kayaking and more whenever they have the chance. Dominick F. Santelle Park and Boat Launch offers residents a place to launch their boats and kayaks in addition to basketball and tennis courts and a playground when they’re ready to enjoy activities on dry land or let their kids burn off some energy. A little more inland, Parker Sickles Park offers a baseball field, soccer fields and playground across from a large community garden.

From Pre-K to Eighth Grade, children in Little Silver attend school in the Little Silver School District at either Markham Place School or Point Road School, both of which exceed the state’s standards for student growth on their performance reports. Older children go to Red Bank Regional High School, which the Washington Post rated as one of the most challenging high schools in the US. It’s one of only 14 New Jersey high schools to offer an International Baccalaureate diploma and certificate program.

Most of Little Silver’s restaurants are scattered just off Prospect Avenue, giving residents somewhere to grab a pizza or sit down for a meal at the end of a full day of work or having fun on the water. Residents can also spend time learning about their neighborhood’s history by visiting or volunteering to help preserve the Parker Homestead, a restored house turned museum that was likely built in 1721 on a slot of land that belonged to the Parker family from 1665 to 1996—meaning that it has stood far longer than the borough has even existed.

Just under 2 miles from Shrewsbury and less than 10 miles from Sandy Hook Beach, Little Silver’s waterfront views and swaying wetland grasses make it a beautiful place to call home.

GreatSchools: The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
