Moorestown offers suburban comfort outside of Philadelphia
Fourteen miles east of Philadelphia, Moorestown is a New Jersey township blending modern convenience with small-town charm and natural beauty. Compared to Philly, Moorestown's housing leans more suburban. "It's a desirable town," says Elizabeth Berry, a Realtor with Weichert Realtors and a Moorestown local. Main Street is lined with small businesses, while the eastern half of town is lush with green spaces. The community is also known for its well-rated schools and busy calendar of annual celebrations and sporting events, which keep Moorestown tight-knit. "It's friendly and very easy to assimilate yourself into," Berry says.

A variety of home styles, from historic to contemporary
Moorestown's housing varies widely, but most homes for sale are from the late 20th century or early 2000s. "Anything from Victorian, Four Square, Colonial — just really depends," Berry says. Colonial Revivals are especially popular, often set in planned subdivisions, like Moorestown Hunt, with traditional lawns and modern features, like attached garages. Historic, 19th-century farmhouses are dotted on the town's outskirts, occasionally with acreage, allowing for privacy. Closer to downtown, Craftsman-inspired homes are set close together along sidewalk-lined streets. "In town, you have big old trees, which really offer a lot of privacy," Berry says. The community's largest homes, sometimes more than 8,000 square feet, often have Dutch Colonial-inspired stylings, like flared eaves and ornate porticos and include pools and golf course views. Most homes range from about $400,000 to $800,000, but the larger properties can sell for between $900,000 and $2.5 million, both ranges depending on size and features.

Moorestown Township Public School District receives all A's from Niche
Moorestown is part of the Moorestown Township Public School District, rated A-plus and ranked the best school district in Burlington County by Niche. "There are only three elementary schools, and then everyone is together after that," Berry says. "So, you know your kids are going to be friends with everyone in town."
Kids can start at the A-plus-rated South Valley Elementary before moving to the A-rated William Allen Middle. Teens attend the A-plus-rated Moorestown High, which has career and technical education programs and dual-enrollment courses for credit at Rowan College at Burlington County. The school's dozens of championship titles include the 2025 girls' golf Group B State Title. Several private schools are also in the area, including the A-plus-rated Moorestown Friends School, which teaches kindergarten through 12th grade and is ranked the best private school in Burlington County.

Youth sports, Swedes Run Dog Park and fishing in Rancocas Creek
Moorestown is a playground for outdoor enthusiasts. Four-legged friends run free at Swedes Run Dog Park, which offers an agility course and picnic areas. John Pryor Park hosts many of the town's youth sporting events, including Little League games. "We have a very, very good recreation department that does a ton of programs for adults and children," Berry says. "Whatever you want to become involved in, it's very easy." Nearby, the Boundary Creek Natural Resource Area provides an escape into nature with its dirt-packed trails that weave through forests and fields along Rancocas Creek — a popular fishing spot for largemouth bass. A handful of golf courses are in the area, too, such as Moorestown Field Club's private nine-hole course and Rancocas Golf Club's public 18-hole course.
Swedes Run Dog Park has a massive sprawling space for dogs to run on.

Cafes, bakeries and international flavors along Main Street
Main Street — also called downtown — is Moorestown's commercial hub. Mornings start with craft drinks from French Press, such as lavender lattes and salted caramel mochas, or indulgent brunch favorites from Pie Lady Cafe, like banana French toast and spinach-feta quiche. Nearby, Philly Pretzel Factory offers its signature soft pretzels, a regional favorite. Dinner options span a range of global flavors, from Luna Y Sol's shrimp birria tacos to Akira's hibachi steak and Carollo's Little Italy's homemade bolognese. The thoroughfare also features barbershops, nail salons and specialty stores, including Ralph's Market, a local deli known for its butcher cuts and artisan cheeses.
Several retail plazas border the town, like Centerton Square, with grocery chains and retailers such as Wegmans, Target and Costco Wholesale.

Family-friendly, music-filled festivals in Moorestown
In June, Main Street is closed off for Moorestown Day, where crowds enjoy a day of shopping, dining and dancing to celebrate the community. "In the fall, we have Autumn in Moorestown," Berry says. "They have scarecrow-making, food trucks … bands." There's also the Moorestown Porch Fest in April, which transforms neighbors' doorsteps into concert venues. "We had over 75 bands playing on different porches all within walking distance of each other," Berry says. The Moorestown Bluegrass Festival also brings music to the township, but instead of guitars, many musicians play fiddles and five-string banjos. "Moorestown Day and Autumn in Moorestown have always been well-attended," Berry says. "The other two are newer and allow a younger crowd to get more involved."
Drive, walk, bus and bike in Moorestown
State Route 38 passes through Moorestown and provides a direct route to Philadelphia. The township's streets are generally sidewalk-lined and bike-friendly.
