Homes for Sale in Riverton, NJ
Historic Riverfront Charm
About Riverton
Riverton is one of Burlington County's most charming small boroughs — a Delaware River community of fewer than 3,000 residents where Victorian homes, tree-canopied streets, and a genuine riverfront lifestyle create a setting that feels preserved in time. Founded in the 1850s as a planned Victorian resort community, Riverton retains much of its original architectural character with stunning homes along Bank Avenue overlooking the Delaware. The borough's compact footprint, walkable grid, and active civic organizations give it a community spirit that larger towns can only aspire to.
Living in Riverton
Life in Riverton revolves around the river and the tight-knit community. The Riverton Yacht Club — one of the oldest in the country — anchors the social scene, and the borough's riverfront park provides stunning sunset views across to Philadelphia. The Porch Club, a historic women's organization, and active borough committees keep residents connected through events, volunteer efforts, and seasonal celebrations. Daily conveniences are available in neighboring Cinnaminson and Palmyra along Route 130, while Moorestown's Main Street and Cherry Hill's shopping are about 10-15 minutes away. The Tacony-Palmyra Bridge provides quick access to Northeast Philadelphia.
Riverton Real Estate Market
Riverton's housing market is unique in the region — the borough's Victorian and early 20th-century housing stock attracts buyers who value historic architecture and riverfront living. Charming 3-bedroom Victorians start around $225K, with well-restored larger homes on Bank Avenue and the surrounding blocks commanding $350-500K+. The occasional riverfront property can exceed these ranges significantly. The market is smaller and less active than surrounding towns given the borough's tiny size, but properly priced homes with character move well. Buyers here are typically looking for something specific — the combination of river views, walkability, and historic charm that Riverton uniquely provides.
