89 Highland Ave, Metuchen, NJ 08840

Gracious home in the heart of Metuchen. Neighborhood Description This town is extremely unique. Victorian town with restaurants on Main Street and a train in the center of town to take you directly into the center of NYC in Schools are top rated! The sense of community is quintessentially small town America. Located in the heart of central New Jersey, Metuchen captures the spirit of “small town USA.” Metuchen’s residents often walk or jog down its tree-lined streets, shop in the quaint Main Street stores, frequent the many playgrounds and parks (Middlesex Greenway, Thomas Pond Park, Centennial Park), and gather at the annual events like parades, the arts & crafts festival and the “country” fair. Metuchenites often get to know their local merchants and get personalized service they find missing at large chain stores in the nearby shopping malls. Aside from its “neighborly” small-town friendliness, Metuchen’s age differentiates it from its more modern suburban neighboring towns. From the Victorian era horse watering trough on Middlesex Avenue to its many charming restored historic homes, Metuchen retains a historic character and timeless stability. Metuchen has great community events and facilities - here are just some: -Metuchen Town Pool - With lessons and a swim team in the summers -Car Show on Main Street - First Wed. of each month in the summer time -Halloween Pumpkin Carving and Float - At Tommy's Pond -Main Street Town Fair -New Years Eve Fireworks by Main Street -Town Wide Garage Sale -Victorian Metuchen Inn for fine dining or a glass of wine -Public Library and YMCA - with children's activities for all ages -Soccer and Little League Baseball -Just a short drive to the Menlo Park Mall
