Convenient township between major job hubs with popular businesses and

Located at a crossroads of highways halfway between New York City and Philadelphia, the Central Jersey community of Robbinsville Township offers commuters a convenient and aesthetic home just a short drive from the state capital of Trenton. Robbinsville’s history dates to the late 17th century, but this town only acquired its current name in 2008 — it was previously known as “Washington Township.” The township has evolved from a rail suburb of Philadelphia into a commuter hub for New York, Philadelphia and the Jersey Shore with the construction of major highways in the 1970s, giving it excellent access to the state’s major employment and population centers. “Having raised my kids here, and having no intention of leaving anytime soon, it’s a phenomenal place to grow up and retire to,” says Theza Friedman, a Realtor with Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage-Princeton Jc, who’s lived in the area for over 20 years.

Variety of late-20th-century single-family houses and townhomes

Robbinsville’s streetscapes are defined by an abundance of colonial-style homes, inspired by Robbinsville’s rich history. Colonial and federal-style homes line Newtown Boulevard and the town’s many residential side streets. The Town Center neighborhood of Robbinsville is home to Central Boulevard, which runs from the grassy Burnet Crescent in the south to the circular North Park across the town’s lakes. Meanwhile, the Foxmoor community, built from the late 1980s to early 1990s, includes large townhomes and individual colonial homes, offering a variety of housing options to aspiring homeowners. Homes here tend to stay on the market for about three weeks and typically sell for between $700,000 to $1 million. According to the CAP Index, the neighborhood gets an overall crime score of 2/10, which is below the national average of 4/10.
