Older than it looks
The biggest single group of Rumson's homes dates to 1939 or earlier, and half were built by 1969. Oceanic and the houses off Rumson Road mix old estates with newer rebuilds.
Historic property review
Rumson's Historic Preservation Commission keeps a historic property database and advises owners going through the development application process. If your house is in it, we plan around that review.
