Enjoy the historic surrounds and small-town charm of Pitman, a borough located in South Jersey along the Delaware River. The area was settled by a sect of Methodists in the 1870s, developing their camp in the area now known as Pitman Grove. Cottages and larger houses soon replaced the campground tents as the area became a proper town. The grove is now on the Register of Historic Places along with the Vaudeville-era theater along Pitman's vibrant business district, just a short drive from beautiful houses.
Shops & restaurants on Broadway are a perfect spot for a date night or to get out with friends.
"Everybody loves Pitman", you ready to make the move.

Historic cottages and Italianate-style homes
Here you'll find a community of historic homes along forested suburban streets. Most homes are less than two miles from Pitman's town center as well as major freeways. The neighborhood's centerpiece is the Pitman Grove, a collection of cottages and Italianate houses all snaking inwards towards the central auditorium. Outside the grove are more traditional suburban tracts featuring larger houses with more colonial and contemporary designs, though still featuring the ornate detailing and Pitman's Italianate homes. Smaller bungalows and ranch-style houses feature open floor plans that allow homeowners to take advantage of every inch of living space. Homes feature amenities such as multi-car garages and wraparound porches and more modern amenities such as roof-mounted solar panels. Home prices range from $146,000 for homes with fewer than two bedrooms to as much as $700,000 for homes with three bedrooms or more.
