Long Meadow

Long Meadow is one of West Windsor's earlier subdivisions. Tax-map records list the community in three phased sections (Sec 01, Sec 02, Sec 03), and the build years recorded on individual homes that have sold recently land in 1972. The mailing address is Princeton 08540, which can be confusing for buyers searching by town name; the township, the tax bill, and the school catchment are all West Windsor.

The homes themselves are 1970s-era detached colonials and similar floor plans on roughly half-acre lots. A representative recent sale closed at 2,376 sq ft with 4 bedrooms, 2 full and 1 half bath, on a 0.55-acre parcel. That puts Long Meadow in a different category from West Windsor's later 1990s and 2000s subdivisions: smaller-footprint homes, modest setbacks, but mature trees and an established street grid rather than a graded new-build feel.

Because the homes are roughly fifty years old, the renovation question matters. Mechanicals, roofs, kitchens, and baths in their original condition are at the end of useful life on most properties here; recently sold homes typically reflect either a meaningful price discount for that work or completed updates already priced in. The land value and the West Windsor-Plainsboro school district remain the constants.
