About This Home

As of February 2023

This charming three-bedroom single owner ranch house was custom-built by the owner, located in the highly desirable Cranbury neighborhood, and was once part of a large estate, whose owner was connected to the theatre.
Years later the property was sub-divided and sold to an immigrant farmer, an expert ceramic/stone mason, home builder, who built his “American Dream” home for his family at 2 Columbine Lane.
The owner oversaw all aspects of construction, incorporating brick exterior, plaster walls, copper plumbing, maple hardwood cabinets, solid Morgan doors, and Anderson Windows. The family room has solid wood beams, hand hewn by the owner himself, and an oversized, beautiful functioning fireplace with mantel and raised hearth. Don't miss the amazing Pavilion in the back of the property.
The lower level was especially important - the ‘Summer Kitchen’ was used often to cook and make their food, has tons of potential and multi-use purposes with a pool table and large area for an entertainment and media center, home office, Summer Kitchen, half bath, and large unfinished work rooms.
Less than two miles to the Merritt Parkway, three miles to downtown Westport and Norwalk, both with excellent restaurants and shopping, four miles to Norwalk beaches, it offers superb curb appeal with plenty of privacy on this wonderful, lightly wooded, flat .69-acre lot.
This home was the wonderful backdrop for creating wonderful memories of family and friends. Let it be yours too.
