Where to Live in Bridgewater, New Jersey

Written by Amy Wood | Jun 6, 2017 7:31:01 PM

Are you planning to move to the Bridgewater area but aren’t sure exactly where you want to live? The Somerset Circle area offers the ideal location if you want to be close to highways, stores and other amenities.

Somerset Circle is the Place to Be in Bridgewater

The commute is an important factor when most people search for a new apartment. When you have to drive miles just to get the highway on-ramp, you never know if you’ll be delayed by jammed traffic, faulty traffic lights or snow-covered side streets. Lucky Somerset Circle residents only have to travel a few minutes to reach the roads that take them where they need to go. I-287 and routes 22 and 202 serve the area, offering convenient access to Plainfield, Edison, New Brunswick, Basking Ridge and New York City.

If you prefer to take public transportation to work, Somerset County’s SCOOT buses travel from Bridgewater to Bedminster, Somerville, Manville, and Hillsborough. DASH shuttles offer service to Bound Brook, Somerville, New Brunswick and a variety of other stops. Do you commute to New York every day? NJ Transit’s Bridgewater Station is conveniently located on E. Main Street.

The Somerset area is about 40 minutes from Newark International Airport and a slightly longer drive to other regional airports, including JFK, LaGuardia and Trenton-Mercer Airport.

Although trains, planes and buses make commuting easier, you won’t have to travel very far to the office if you work at one of these Bridgewater businesses:

  • Valeant Pharmaceuticals
  • Ethicon
  • Met Life
  • Linde North America
  • Qualcomm Flarion Technologies
  •

The school district was recently ranked 1052nd in the country and 48th in the state in U.S News & World Report’s National rankings.

Fairway 28 Offers the Ideal Somerset Circle Location

Fairway 28 – A Country Classics Rental Community, is located just off Route 28 in Bridgewater, adjacent to the Raritan Valley Country Club. The brand new community offers luxurious one- and two-bedroom apartments ranging in size from 778 to 1500 square feet.

Fairway 28 offers all of the amenities that make an apartment a home, including large kitchens with stainless steel appliances and Silestone countertops and tile master bathrooms that feature linen closets, double sinks and large showers.

Thoughtful amenities include a tot lot for children to enjoy, and a pet run for the dogs in your life. An elevator, grill, a fire pit and a fitness center are also included. If the apartments don't offer enough storage space for you, you can rent a storage unit if you prefer.

Making the adjustment to apartment living can be a little tough if you’re used to have a garage. No one likes cleaning off the car after a big snow storm or entering a hot car in the summer. At Fairway 28, you don’t have to give up your garage. We offer private garages for an extra monthly fee.

Viewing photographs on the Internet is an excellent way to narrow your apartment choices, but it’s a no substitute for actually visiting a community.
