21 · MONMOUTH COUNTY, NEW JERSEY

Matawan On Main Street.

2.4 square miles of 19th-century New Jersey — a restored Main Street, Victorian side streets, and the same 53-minute ride to Penn Station.

THE OVERVIEW

Historic Main Street, Modern Commute.

The historic half of the Matawan-Aberdeen pairing — restored brick storefronts, Victorian side streets, and the same 53-minute rail to Penn Station.

Matawan is the historic half of the Matawan-Aberdeen pairing. Main Street has been restored with boutique retail, farm-to-table restaurants (Catch + Gather, Fiddleheads), and the Matawan Community Theatre — all in 19th-century brick storefronts that reference the town's ship-building history. The residential side streets are walkable Victorians and Queen Anne cottages.

Median sits near $525K in the historic Matawan borough section and climbs into the $1M+ range for the older homes on Broad Street and Main Street. The Matawan-Aberdeen Regional School District serves here, and the Aberdeen-Matawan NJ Transit station puts Penn Station 53 minutes away.

Mirtha represents a current rental listing at 114 Wellington Place in Matawan, and she works with the many commuter families who choose Matawan for the walkable historic character plus the fast rail access.
