A quiet community with an unexpected number of outdoor delights

Nature Outdoors Diverse Commuter Quiet

Martinsville is a scenic community situated just off Interstate 287 and 78 in northern New Jersey. The community is part of the Bridgewater Township, a more suburban area just west closer to I-287. What Martinsville may lack in urban appeal it makes up for in pastoral beauty. A small but charming town center with locally owned shops and plenty of Italian restaurants and pizza places keeps locals entertained. The big draw of the area is Washington Valley Park, just south of the town center. Beautiful falls, historic farmhouses, and nature trails make the park a welcome addition to the landscape of Martinsville. The interstates to the west and north of Martinsville will please the commuting crowd, and Union, Elizabeth, and Newark are less than an hour’s drive east.
