About this home

North East Facing sun filled 2 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom townhome located in Society Hill within East Brunswick's highly regarded Blue Ribbon School District, including East Brunswick High School and Frost Elementary School. This exceptional residence features a brand new roof, convenient access to direct NYC commuter routes, and resort style community amenities including a pool, tennis courts, and clubhouse. At 1, 466 square feet, this is one of the largest two bedroom floor plans in the community and offers an abundance of natural light throughout. Expansive windows illuminate the open concept layout, highlighted by a wood burning fireplace in the living room. The bonus Florida room provides flexible living space perfect for a home office, fitness area, or year round lounge, a feature rarely found in Society Hill. The updated eat in kitchen is designed for both function and style with granite countertops, custom pull out cabinetry, and an instant hot water tap. A formal dining area and convenient powder room complete the main level. Upstairs, two generously sized bedrooms each enjoy access to a full bathroom, including a spacious primary suite with its own private bath. A brand new washer and dryer are included, making this home truly move in ready. Outside, enjoy a private patio retreat surrounded by mature trees, creating the perfect setting for morning coffee or evening dining without the maintenance of a yard. The monthly HOA fee of $343 covers exterior maintenance, snow removal, trash collection, and grounds keeping, offering a true lock and leave lifestyle. The brand new roof provides peace of mind for years to come, while assigned parking directly outside the home and nearby guest parking add everyday convenience. Ideally located just minutes from Route 18, New Jersey Turnpike Exit 9, and express bus service to New York City, this is an exceptional opportunity in one of East Brunswick's most sought after communities.
