Navesink Homes for Rent

Navesink, a small unincorporated section of Middletown Township in Monmouth County, is home to around 1,700 residents and includes the Navesink Historic District. This rural enclave features historic landmarks like All Saints’ Memorial Episcopal Church and offers scenic water views due to its hilly elevation. The neighborhood is a ten-minute drive from the beaches of Sea Bright and Sandy Hook and less than an hour from NYC by ferry. Navesink Elementary School, Bayshore Middle School, and Middletown South High School are highly rated, making the area attractive to families. The landscape is characterized by narrow residential streets, wooded areas, and a mix of Victorian, Colonial, Craftsman-style bungalows, and Greek Revival homes, particularly along Monmouth Avenue. Huber Woods Park and Hartshorne Woods Park provide extensive outdoor recreational opportunities with hiking, biking, and horseback riding trails. While local businesses are limited, residents frequent Almost Home General for breakfast and lunch and Navesink Fishery for seafood. For shopping, locals head to nearby Atlantic Highlands and Middletown. Commuting options include the Seastreak Ferry from Atlantic Highlands and NJ Transit from Middletown Station. The area is safer than the national average, although portions near the Navesink River face moderate flood risk over the next 30 years.
