Middlesex County (New Jersey) Top 5 Home Sales: $1.2 Million Cranbury Colonial Leads the Week

The week's top sales came from five different towns and include homes built from the early 1930s to this year.

Middlesex County (New Jersey) Top 5 Home Sales: $1.2 Million Cranbury Colonial Leads the Week

The five highest-priced home sales reported in Middlesex County (New Jersey) for the week ending October 25, 2026, came to a combined $5.425 million. Each sale was in a different town: Cranbury, Iselin, Colonia, Metuchen and Monroe Township. All five are two-story single-family homes, and every one of them has four bedrooms.

Prices ran from $940,000 to $1,200,000, and the group mixes a home finished this year with older Colonials that have been remodeled and expanded below grade. CENTURY 21 ABRAMS & ASSOCIATES listed two of the five, including the week’s top sale.
