About this home
A rare find in New Brunswick: fully renovated, filled with natural light, and tucked along a quiet, tree-lined street with easy access to New York City. Renovated in 2024, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers easy one-level living, a flexible den, and a bright, open feel. Sunlight fills the home from morning to evening, year-round. Outside, a large deck overlooks an expansive, fully fenced backyard surrounded by mature trees, creating a peaceful and private place to relax, entertain, or play. The location makes commuting easy. Close proximity to NYC bus service to both Port Authority and Wall Street and New Brunswick's Northeast Corridor train station is only minutes from home. Routes 1, 18 and 27, along with NJ Turnpike Exit 9, are all close by. Downtown New Brunswick is also just minutes away, with some of the city's best dining, Rutgers University, and RWJ University Hospital nearby. Bright, private, fully renovated, and incredibly well connected, 62 Pennington Rd is a home that's easy to love. Showing Starts on September 12th at 1 P.M
