Rural escape with commuter access
Springfield Township, 17 miles south of Trenton, is a New Jersey community that offers rustic seclusion convenient to commuter routes, including U.S. Route 206. "It's far enough from Trenton that you have the luxury of country living," says Richard Lynch, a Realtor with Smires & Associates Real Estate and over 17 years of experience. "You'll see open lands and trees." Many single-family homes are charming Colonial Revivals with acreage, but there are a few traditional suburbs as well. Instead of fast-food and supermarkets, residents enjoy mom-and-pop restaurants and farmers markets, but Lynch says it's easy to access surrounding metro areas with more commercial activity. "People commute to Philly," he says. "It's a good location. It's not far from anywhere."
Farmland stretches out far and wide, providing the community with its own bountiful harvest.
Rural life blends in with suburban life seamlessly.

Colonial Revivals with privacy and acreage
Springfield Township's single-family homes are diverse, but mid-to-late 20th-century ranch and Colonial styles are typical. "You have a combination of all styles," Lynch says. "You have new construction and older homes; it's very different." Many older homes are set along tree-lined country roads on grassy lots with acreage, allowing for features like private driveways, barns and detached garages or workshops. "They're larger parcels of land, but it's not far from anywhere," Lynch says. There are also a few pockets of suburban developments, like those in Juliustown. "Some houses are close to each other, but it's not like you're living in a city," Lynch says. The median home price in Springfield Township is $500,000, compared to the U.S. national median of about $420,000.

Quiet parks with sports and trails
Much of Springfield Township is green space, but there are only a few named parks. Veterans Park offers a half-mile walking path, picnic pavilion and lots of sports amenities, including batting cages, a sand volleyball court and a soccer field — to name just a few. Nearby, Juliustown Park offers dog-friendly wooded areas to explore and sports like basketball and softball. There's also "Kevin," one of 19 Burlington County Troll sculptures hidden around the county. Arney's Mount Park is popular for its paved trails, shared by dog walkers, morning joggers and cyclists. Birdwatchers at the park may spot laughing gulls, swamp sparrows and palm warblers. Golfers can hit the links at the Springfield Golf Center's 18-hole course. Seven miles away, Pemberton Lake is a fishing lake stocked with largemouth bass, black crappie and white perch.

Farmers markets and casual dining
Shopping and dining are sparse in Springfield Township. Jacksonville Deli is the go-to for quick groceries and made-to-order comfort fare, including hoagies, burgers and breakfast sandwiches. Family-run Mr. McGregor's Garden Farm Market and Deli has a little of everything, including fresh jellies, pies and barbecue. In the summer, Johnson's Locust Hall Farm is popular for berry and apple picking; in the fall, there's a corn maze. Along Route 206, the Columbus Farmers Market has been a community mainstay since 1929 for its fresh produce, handmade items and locally sourced meats and dairy. The market's open on Thursday through Sunday, and right next to it, the open-air Columbus Flea Market includes hundreds of vendors with artisan crafts and secondhand treasures. A few casual restaurants are also open during market hours, including Kate & Al's Pizza, popular for its tomato pies and Sicilian-style pizza slices.
