Hunterdon County is New Jersey's best-kept secret for families who want room to breathe. While much of the state is defined by density and highways, Hunterdon is defined by stone walls, covered bridges, working farms, and properties measured in acres, not square feet. It's the New Jersey that most people don't know exists — and those who find it rarely leave.
The county seat of Flemington has undergone a renaissance, with its historic downtown now home to farm-to-table restaurants, artisan shops, and a vibrant community scene. Clinton is one of the most picturesque towns in the state, with its iconic Red Mill, riverside setting, and walkable charm. And towns like Tewksbury, Readington, and Raritan Township offer large-lot living with excellent schools and genuine community.
Hunterdon County is the heart of New Jersey's equestrian world. Tewksbury, Oldwick, and the areas bordering Far Hills are home to some of the finest horse properties on the East Coast. From hobby farms with a few acres and a barn to world-class equestrian estates with indoor arenas, paddocks, and trail access — if you're looking for horse property in NJ, Hunterdon County is where you start. Tang Group has experience with large-acreage and agricultural properties and can help you navigate the unique considerations of equestrian real estate.
Hunterdon Central Regional High School serves the majority of the county and offers strong academics, excellent athletics, and a wide range of AP courses. Elementary and middle school districts in Readington, Tewksbury, and Delaware Township are well-regarded. For private education, The Pingry School in nearby Basking Ridge is one of NJ's most elite options, and Blair Academy in neighboring Warren County offers boarding school excellence. Families choosing Hunterdon County often prioritize the small class sizes, individualized attention, and community engagement that smaller districts provide.
Hunterdon County is one of the best places in New Jersey to buy land and build a custom home. Zoning in many townships requires large minimum lot sizes — 3, 5, even 10+ acre minimums — which preserves the rural character and ensures privacy. This makes Hunterdon ideal for families who want to design their dream home on their own terms. Tang Group offers land and development advisory services to help you find the right parcel and navigate the building process.
Hunterdon County is not a traditional NYC commuter county — and that's part of its appeal. Most residents commute to corporate campuses in Somerset, Morris, or Middlesex counties (30-40 minutes), or work remotely. Some do commute to NYC (55-80 min depending on route and transit options). NJ Transit buses from Flemington connect to Newark and NYC. Route 78, Route 22, and Route 202 provide highway access. But the lifestyle here is the draw: farmers markets, hiking at Round Valley, river tubing on the Delaware, and dinner at a farm-to-table restaurant in Flemington. It's a different pace — and people love it.
Hunterdon County offers strong long-term value. Property taxes, while not low by national standards, are more reasonable per acre than denser NJ counties. Homes tend to appreciate steadily, especially well-maintained properties on desirable lots. The county's strict zoning and preservation easements limit new development, which protects existing property values. For investors interested in agricultural properties, farm-assessed land offers significant tax advantages.
Our office in Hillsborough is just 15 minutes from the Hunterdon County border — we know these roads, these towns, and these neighborhoods intimately.
