Milltown, NJ homes for sale & real estate.
Browse homes for sale in Milltown, New Jersey. Milltown is a charming, tightly knit borough of roughly 7,000 residents in western Middlesex County, where the Lawrence Brook flows out of Farrington Lake and pools behind a Main Street dam to form the Mill Pond at the town's center. Incorporated in 1889 and once home to a major Michelin tire factory, Milltown offers single-family homes, multi-family dwellings, and condos along a traditional Main Street, with generations of families putting down roots here.
Milltown's location is a big part of its appeal. The borough sits between the New Jersey Turnpike (Exit 9) and U.S. Route 1 and Route 18 , very close to Rutgers University and the greater New Brunswick area. That puts jobs, healthcare, shopping, and Northeast Corridor rail (at nearby New Brunswick station) all within minutes. Milltown generally prices around Middlesex County's ~$535,000 median, and its high-quality schools support strong demand.
