What Crossings at Delanco Station Is
Crossings at Delanco Station was built by D.R. Horton starting in 2020 and completed in 2023 — 105 single-family 55+ homes in Delanco Township, Burlington County, on the banks of the Rancocas Creek. New construction is sold out; current availability is resale only. All homes feature first-floor living, open floor plans with covered porches, and 2-car garages. The four floor plans range from 1,664 to 1,958 square feet, all designed with primary bedrooms and main living on the first floor.
The community's most distinctive feature is its location directly across the street from the Delanco River Line light rail station — providing car-free access northbound to Trenton, NJ and southbound to Camden, NJ (where PATCO crosses to Philadelphia). Four miles to the Burlington-Bristol Bridge into Pennsylvania. Philadelphia International Airport is 40 minutes. For Burlington County buyers who want newer construction in a smaller, boutique-scale community at a lower price than Mt. Laurel's established options, Crossings at Delanco is the answer.
The Light Rail Advantage Nobody Talks About
Essentially every South Jersey 55+ community requires a car for any trip outside the community. Crossings at Delanco Station is the exception: the River Line station is literally across the street. Northbound reaches Trenton in under an hour. Southbound reaches Camden's PATCO station, from which you can connect to Center City Philadelphia by train. For buyers who anticipate reducing driving as they age — or who simply want the option of leaving the car home for a city day — this is a genuinely meaningful location feature.
