Randolph is suburban with a bit of rural feel

In the center of Morris County, Randolph Township weaves traditional subdivisions through its forests and offers a wide selection of outdoor attractions. “It’s suburban with a bit of a rural feel to it, but that’s just the nature of Morris County,” says Ted Miller II, a Realtor-Associate with Coldwell Banker Realty, who grew up in Morris County and has been selling homes here since 1991. Incorporated in 1806, the town originally held many farms and iron mines. The region grew into a vacation destination in the late 1800s, which contributed to the town’s boom in the 1900s. Today, Randolph offers suburban living close to parks and trails, as well as commuting options to Manhattan.

Traditional style homes starting in the $350,000s

The town offers a mix of homes in traditional subdivisions and rural properties with bigger lot sizes. “A lot of Randolph was built up a little bit later, so you’re going to find some more larger homes here than in the rest of the county,” says Miller. Colonials and ranch-style homes were built primarily between 1950 and 2000, though there’s been a small number of contemporary houses built in the past 25 years. Most homes feature driveways and garages, and the town’s rural properties can have anywhere from 2 to 10 acres of land. Homes typically sell for $350,000 to $750,000, while the largest houses usually go for $800,000 to $1.5 million. There are also townhome communities like Buckingham and Kensington Square with two- and three-bedroom properties that tend to sell for $550,000 to $750,000.

Dual enrollment courses at Randolph High

Students may start at Center Grove School, which earns an A from Niche, before going to Randolph Middle, which gets an A-minus. Randolph High also receives an A and offers dual enrollment courses through The County College of Morris, whose campus is located within the township.

Brundage Park Playhouse, Events at Veterans Community Park

At Brundage Park, its playhouse has served as a community theater since 1978. The theater puts on a wide range of performances throughout the year, including major productions, children’s theater and apprentice programs. “It’s the ultimate community theater,” says Miller. Veterans Community Park also hosts events throughout the year, including the annual Arts in the Park festival showcasing local artists and crafters. Free movies are screened at the park during the summer. The Randolph Country Fair in September features live music, food trucks and family activities. And in October, the park is transformed for Halloween with a haunted trail, hayride and food vendors.
