These guys don't budge on prices. They throw in few upgrades like stainless steel appliances and some other small stuff. Banks these days don't give loans if the house is overpriced. Gone are those days of "flipping my house". If you check the tax records, you will see similar houses (adjoining homes) in the same community sold for 20-40 k more during the boomtime. Check what's important for you.. brand new home, well developed tree lined neighborhood or more bustling walkable downtown. You will have better luck in offering a lower price for an existing house sale.
As for commute to Manhattan, you can take trains from Princeton junction, bus from 8a or little less frequent buses from twin rivers. Both 8a and Princeton junction are 16 min drive. I have no idea on the schools (have a 2yr old). But I haven't heard anything bad also.
