Marlton, a desirable suburb in South Jersey, offers a network of comfortable homes in a suburban landscape near Route 70’s commercial scene. Sitting about 15 miles from the heart of Philadelphia, residents are able to bask in calm suburbia without sacrificing accessibility to the city. "It's more of the suburban feel, when they want to kind of get away from the city a little bit,” says Tim Belko, a Realtor with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Fox & Roach Realtors. “They've got some award-winning school districts, which people have been attracted to. It's just a community feel. Marlton has a great reputation."
The central location of Marlton is another perk and attracting factor, as depending on location residents might only be a few minutes from driving on Route 70 or heading to bigger cities. “Marlton is conveniently located near everything. We’re a half an hour from Center City, an hour and 15 minutes from New York City, an hour and a half from the Poconos, and only an hour from the Jersey Shore,” says David O’Neal, a local Realtor with BHHS Fox & Roach Marlton-Voorhees Home Marketing Center who has lived in Marlton for 30 years. The region takes its name from marl, a sedimentary rock, and the expanse of the New Jersey Pine Barrens occupies much of the area east of Marlton.
Plenty of parks in Marlton keep the residents active throughout the community.

Residential landscapes shaded by trees
Marlton is predominantly made up of single-family homes along its leafy residential streets. Some townhouses and condos can be found in the neighborhood, as well, but colonial-style homes there can date to the 1800s, and a mix of ranch-style homes, contemporary designs and more can be found as well. Home prices in Marlton have a median value of around $500,000. "Overall, it's going to skew more towards single-family homes,” Belko says. “A lot of the single-family homes were built in the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s, so they're the more mature neighborhoods with the bigger trees. A lot of those homes are going to be upwards of 2,500 square feet on up.”
Backyards are often separated from each other by a fence or barrier of trees, and thickets of foliage also have a presence around the residential areas. The west side, though, has more constrained areas due to the proximity to Route 70. “Regardless of where you are in the town, they have well-developed, mature neighborhoods with some of the larger trees,” Belko says. “If you're on the western side of town, you're going to get smaller lots. If you go to the eastern side, you're going to find the nicer neighborhoods with larger lots, but you might also get a septic system. There's a lot to like based on what the person's looking for."
Marlton receives more rainfall on average than the nation as a whole, with a mean of 47 inches per year, but gets less than half the national average of snowfall per year with 13 inches. Generally, temperatures hit the high-80-degree range in the summer and dip into low-20-degree territory in the winter.

Parks with amenities and expansive preserves
Marlton has many recreation options, ranging from small parks to tracts of land and expansive, wooded green spaces. Many of the small parks offer amenities like open green spaces, playgrounds and sports fields or courts, and the Marlton Street Hockey Rinks play host to both organized and pickup games. "Marlton, as a whole, has got a great community feel that a lot of people like,” Belko says. “There's a lot of programs that go on, whether it's for kids' sports, swim clubs or things like that that attract people. It depends on what the person's looking for.”
Other sporting-focused facilities include spots where golfers can hit the links. “There's a couple different golf courses in town and nearby, which is nice,” Belko says. “I'm in a softball league that plays in Marlton, so they've got those types of activities." Heading east of Marlton, residents encounter larger tracts of land and the New Jersey Pine Barrens. The pinelands stand sentry in parts of over half a dozen counties in the state, and both the Wharton State Forest and Brendan T. Byrne State Forest include portions of the barrens just outside the region. "Marlton is part of Evesham Township, which is geographically a larger area,” Belko says, “so there's a good amount of state and local parks there.”
Marlton has a very active community that fill the local parks on a daily basis.

Two major state routes meet in western Marlton
Route 70 links Marlton residents with central Philadelphia via a journey of about 15 miles west. “You could spend the evening in Center City and return home in 20 minutes. It’s great,” O’Neal says. Proximity to the state routes allows residents quick trips into the city. "If you're in the section closer to Route 70, you're going to have some easier commutes getting into the city,” Belko says. “If you're in the section further away from Route 70, that's where things start to get a little bit more rural. There, you're going to have more of a commute because you're going to have to go through more towns.”
Unless residents live close to access points for Routes 70 or 73, they will often need to navigate suburban streets to get around. Prominent areas, like Barnegat and the Jersey Shore, sit less than 50 miles east. “There are parts of the town where you're taking regular New Jersey roads to get to places, versus the highway,” Belko says. “The other nice thing about it, though, is if someone's looking to get to some of the shore points, especially if you're up toward Route 70, is it's centrally located to some of the Jersey shorepoints." Jetsetters can catch flights at Philadelphia International Airport, which sits around 25 miles away. Virtua Marlton Hospital is about 2 miles from central Marlton.
Shopping hubs along Routes 70 and 73
Routes 70 and 73 intersect in southeastern Marlton, serving as the primary commercial corridors for residents in the region. “There’s a lot more businesses along Route 70,” Belko says. “The Promenade is a higher-end commercial shopping area that was built up 15-20 years ago. Because it’s a big town, there’s plenty of other community businesses, restaurants and shopping centers throughout the area, but a lot of people are going to Route 70 to shop.” A mix of strip malls and shopping centers house major brands like Whole Foods and Royal Farms.
An array of stores and restaurants are situated around the two thoroughfares, and many residents head to the district when looking to go out and eat. The Promenade at Sagemore is a prime spot for those eateries. “There are several high-end shops and restaurants at the promenade, like LaScala’s Fire and Brio for Italian or Redstone American Grill,” O’Neal says. “Chickie’s & Pete’s is also known around town for its crabs.

Seasonal events in the hot weather
Summer weather brings forth a range of festivities, like Marlton Day on Main Street. Attendees are able to explore a range of food trucks and small businesses along the thoroughfare before settling down in the beer garden for an afternoon full of live entertainment, which ranges from music to car shows. The St. Joan of Arc Carnival has been another popular community event for over 50 years. Spanning six days in August, the carnival offers locals an afternoon full of fun – whether running from ride to ride, playing games or diving into a soft and flaky funnel cake. Surrounding communities like Pennsauken Township are only 9 miles away and put on other events like summer concert series or beer and wine festivals at Veterans Island.

Evesham Township receives a B from Niche, encompassing six elementary schools and two middle schools. Once students graduate Frances DeMasi Middle School or Marlton Middle School, there are four high schools within the Lenape Regional School District. It receives an A-minus rating from Niche. “Marlton is known for its excellent school district, and homebuyers tend to seek that out,” O’Neal says. “As a top-producing Realtor, I could live anywhere in South Jersey, but I chose Marlton for a reason, and the schools are one of them.”
