Princeton Manor

Princeton Manor is a gated, 55+ active adult community built by Toll Brothers in Kendall Park, a section of South Brunswick Township in Middlesex County, New Jersey. Surrounded by preserved woodlands and centered on 349 single-family homes, the community was built between 2006 and 2017 with a final Toll Brothers home still trickling out as a new-construction opportunity. The neighborhood is laid out along streets like Andover Drive, Edgemere Drive, Hardwick Drive, Inverness Drive, Delmore Drive, and Ascot, Huntington, and Talcott Courts, accessed from Lincoln Highway (Route 27). Homes span eleven floor plans — Barrington, Braddock, Fairhaven, Farmington, Hanover, Hasting, Huntley, Lehigh, Linwood, Walden, and others — ranging from roughly 1,814 to 2,821 square feet, with two or three bedrooms, two to three baths, two-car attached garages, and basement options on select homesites. Both one-story ranch layouts and two-story designs (including dramatic two-story great rooms and upper-level lofts) are available, appealing to buyers who want either single-level living or extra guest space. The social and recreational heart of the community is an 11,500-square-foot clubhouse that was built to feel more like a boutique resort than a typical HOA amenity center. Inside you'll find a fully equipped fitness center, aerobics and dance studio, hobby and game room, card room, arts and crafts studio, demonstration kitchen, elegant ballroom for planned events, library, billiards room, multipurpose room, and a great room anchored by a stone fireplace. A day spa/salon/barber shop, indoor whirlpool, steam room, and two saunas round out the wellness side. Outdoors, residents have a resort-style pool with spa, tennis courts, two bocce courts, walking and biking trails, stocked fishing lakes with piers and gazebos, an outdoor patio, and picnic areas threaded through the wooded landscape. A full-time activities director programs the calendar, and resident-led clubs include Art Club, Bible Study, Billiards, Bocce, Book Club, Bridge, Creative Exercise, Gentlemen's Club, Golf Club, Gourmet Club, International Travel Group, Mah Jongg, Movie Nights, Photography Group, and a stitchery group. Unlike stricter deed-restricted communities in the area, Princeton Manor allows a household member as young as 19 to live with a qualifying 55+ resident, which makes it friendlier to multi-generational arrangements. Location is one of the community's strongest selling points. Downtown Princeton — with the university, Princeton Medical Center affiliates, boutique shopping, and fine dining — is roughly a ten-minute drive, and New Brunswick with Rutgers University is similarly close. The New Jersey Turnpike, Route 1, Route 27, I-95, I-295, and the Garden State Parkway are all within easy reach, making day trips to New York City, Philadelphia, and the Jersey Shore practical. Seven golf courses and at least five state and county parks — including Washington Crossing, Mercer County Park, Pigeon Swamp State Park, Brunswick Acres, and West New Road Park — sit within a half-hour. HOA dues of roughly $330/month cover lawn care, snow removal, trash, gate-guarded security, common area maintenance, and the management company, so residents can lock the door and travel without worrying about upkeep.
