Lamington, NJ

Lamington is a tiny historic crossroads in Bedminster Township, sitting right where Lamington Road meets Black River Road. With only a small cluster of homes and properties, it offers a distinctly quiet, rural feel surrounded by Somerset County's rolling hills and horse farms. The heart of the hamlet is the Lamington Presbyterian Church, a landmark that has anchored the area since the mid-1700s.

For anyone moving to this corner of Bedminster, the appeal is all about privacy, open space, and genuine local history. The roads are lined with mature trees, historic cemeteries dating back to the Revolutionary War, and a 1918 schoolhouse that now serves as a community gathering space. You will need to drive a few minutes into nearby towns for groceries or dinner, but coming home means enjoying scenic backroads and one of the most peaceful pockets in Central Jersey.
