Cranford, NJ Townhouses for Rent

Nestled along the winding Rahway River just 18 miles southwest of Manhattan, Cranford combines small-town charm with easy access to city amenities. The township, founded in 1871, earned its nickname "The Venice of New Jersey" thanks to the river that flows through its center. Tree-lined streets showcase historic Victorian homes alongside other residences, while the Cranford Station offers NJ Transit rail service with a 49-minute commute to New York City.

Cranford's downtown district features local restaurants, shops, and community events like the annual PorchFest music festival. The township offers recreational spaces throughout its park system, including the Rahway River Parkway and its historic canoe club established in 1908. With average rent for a one-bedroom apartment at $2,803, Cranford provides access to parks, transit options, and Union College's main campus. The township features multiple houses of worship, schools, and community amenities that contribute to its appeal.
