What This Townhouse Offers

Fully renovated with a modern farmhouse aesthetic — rich oak-toned flooring, crisp white walls, navy and black contrast cabinetry, and matte black fixtures... throughout. A move-in ready home in one of Middlesex County's most charming and walkable boroughs, just across the river from New Brunswick's dining, nightlife, and transit.
Highland Park is a hidden gem — a tight-knit, walkable community known for its eclectic restaurant row along Raritan Avenue, independent boutiques, and tree-lined streets. With easy access to New Brunswick just over the bridge, you get the best of both worlds: a quieter, neighborhood feel with a major transit hub, university energy, and city amenities minutes away.
