Rumson NJ

The prosperous town of Rumson in Monmouth County was one of the first areas to be settled by European immigrants, with its oldest residence – a truly magnificent holiday home – dating back to 1670.With its lovely location on a picturesque peninsula that overlooks the ocean, it is easy to see why this area was so quickly sought after. There are numerous other historic homes still in existence as well as many magnificent modern homes that reflect the affluence of the current Rumson population. Those with private yachts still moor them in the nearby Navesink River and all residents have easy access to the stunning beaches across the Oceanic Bridge. A major part of the attraction of Rumson is that Manhattan and Wall Street are just a quick ferry-commute away. Rumson also boasts some excellent gourmet restaurants.

Rumson has six beautifully maintained public parks, a boat ramp for public use and the recently renovated Bingham Hall which has been transformed into an impressive community center that is widely used.

Rumson’s parks feature bandstands, gazebos, lacrosse fields, riverside and shore front walks, as well as basketball, tennis and bocce (boules) courts, football and baseball pitches and playgrounds. In particular, the twenty three acres that make up Meadow Park are a popular location for local fitness enthusiasts who enjoy the running trail and the outdoor exercise equipment that has been installed for their benefit.
