Why buyers choose
Montgomery Woods
Montgomery Woods offers something rare in Montgomery Township: an affordable entry point into one of New Jersey's top-rated school districts. Built between 1986 and 1989, this community of over 300 contemporary-style townhomes carries a Princeton mailing address (08540) while being zoned for Montgomery Township Public Schools. HOA fees of $335-367 per month cover exterior maintenance and common areas.
Every unit includes a garage and back deck, which is uncommon at this price point. The community amenities include tennis courts, tot lots, and walking trails that wind through the neighborhood. The contemporary architectural style gives the homes a distinctive look compared to the colonial-heavy developments elsewhere in the township.
Location-wise, Montgomery Woods benefits from the same assets that make all of Montgomery Township attractive: excellent schools, low crime, and easy access to Route 206 for commuting. The Princeton mailing address is a bonus for buyers who want that association, even though the home is technically in Montgomery Township for school and tax purposes.
