Belford blends bayside living with a proud working-waterfront spirit in a compact corner of Middletown, part of Monmouth County. Fishing boats still depart the docks each morning, and the historic Belford Seafood Co-Op keeps the local catch front and center—whether you’re cooking at home or grabbing a platter after a shoreline stroll. Homes range from cozy capes to expanded ranches on quiet, sidewalk-lined streets, with easy access to parks, marinas, and bay breezes.
Outdoorsy residents love that Bayshore Waterfront Park is minutes away for beachcombing, birding, and sweeping Raritan Bay views. Cyclists and runners can join the Henry Hudson Trail for miles of car-free exploration, and a short drive leads to the oceanfront at Sandy Hook. Local flavor includes community events, a beloved neighborhood brewery, and quick dining-and-arts escapes in Red Bank.
Families are served by Middletown Township Public Schools, with neighborhood elementary options and respected secondary programs, plus nearby private and specialty choices. Commuters appreciate the North Jersey Coast Line from [Middletown] Station via NJ Transit, while high-speed ferry service from neighboring Atlantic Highlands offers a scenic route to Manhattan.
Whether you’re upgrading, downsizing, or relocating to maximize that bayside lifestyle, the right local agent can make all the difference. Agent Pronto connects buyers and sellers with proven real estate professionals who know Belford block by block.
