Tewksbury, NJ Real Estate | Homes for Sale with Amy Roth

Tewksbury Township is Hunterdon County’s horse country — roughly 6,000 residents spread across more than 31 square miles of rolling, largely preserved farmland, organized into five historic villages: Oldwick, Fairmount, Mountainville, Cokesbury, and Pottersville. As of mid-2026, homes here carry a median list price around $1.4 million, reflecting a market of estates, horse farms, and homes on real acreage. It’s one of the most sought-after addresses in the county — and the kind of place where, on many roads, more horses pass by than cars.
The five villages of Tewksbury
Tewksbury isn’t one downtown but a collection of hamlets, each with its own character. Oldwick is the best-known — a walkable historic village with a general store, a few restaurants, and a strong sense of community. Pottersville, Mountainville, Fairmount, and Cokesbury round out the township with country lanes, preserved farmland, and homes tucked into the hills. Much of the land here is protected open space, which is exactly why the rural feel endures.
Homes & the Tewksbury market
This is an estate and equestrian market. Expect classic colonials and farmhouses, restored historic homes, and custom properties on several acres — many with barns, paddocks, and room for horses. With a median list price near $1.4 million (mid-2026) and prices around $323 per square foot, Tewksbury sits at the higher end of Hunterdon County. Inventory is limited and properties are individual, so pricing and presentation matter enormously — which is where a designer’s eye earns its keep.
Schools
Tewksbury Township Schools serve grades K–8 across two buildings: Tewksbury Elementary School (K–4), a 2011 National Blue Ribbon School, and Old Turnpike School (5–8). For high school, students attend Voorhees High School in Glen Gardner, a 2015 National Blue Ribbon School. Strong, well-regarded schools are a major part of the area’s appeal for families.
Getting around & the commute
Tewksbury balances seclusion with reach. By car it’s roughly 65 minutes to New York City and about 50 minutes to Newark, with quick access to Interstate 78. For rail commuters, the nearest stations include Gladstone (Gladstone Branch) and Whitehouse Station and High Bridge on the Raritan Valley Line. You trade a longer commute for space, privacy, and quiet — a trade many here happily make.
The lifestyle
Horses are woven into daily life: riding clubs, miles of trails, and protected land make Tewksbury a true equestrian community. Add Oldwick’s village charm, farm stands, and easy access to Hunterdon’s parks and reservoirs, and you have a place that feels rural and connected at once.
