About This Home
As of July 2024Nestled in the coveted downtown area, backing directly into Heritage Park, this historic home offers the perfect blend of classic charm and modern luxury, with timeless design elements adding touches of grandeur. As you enter you will appreciate the rounded front staircase, a hallmark of classic Cranbury style, enhanced with stunning floor to ceiling custom panels. All around, you'll be greeted by freshly painted walls and meticulously refinished pumpkin pine floors that have been restored to their natural patina, setting a warm and inviting tone throughout the first floor. The heart of this home is its stunning kitchen, thoughtfully redesigned to cater to the needs of a modern gourmet enthusiast. It boasts an oversized 10’ custom quartz island, complete with a beverage center, offering ample space for preparation and entertainment. This culinary haven is equipped with the latest appliances including a Gaggenau steam/combi oven (2024), Viking drawer microwave oven (2022), an XO beverage center (2022), a Thermador dishwasher (2022) and a pro-model Subzero fridge (2024). The front two rooms are perfect for use as living room, dining room or office space. Entertaining friends and family is a breeze, as the kitchen flows seamlessly to the dining room and large family room, with vaulted ceilings. Access the beautiful bluestone patio and pergola through the French doors and plan to relax as you enjoy views of the thoughtfully landscaped yard and access to the park. The attention to detail continues throughout the first floor with a custom cubby to drop those book bags or garden shoes. High-end wallpaper finishes adorn the front room and office creating an aesthetic that is both stylish and warm. All fixtures in the home are Waterworks, Grohe, and Rohl, providing a sophisticated feel that perfectly balances welcoming charm. The second floor offers a primary bedroom with ensuite bath, dressing area, and more closets than you would expect in an older home. Three additional bedrooms and a full bath complete the second floor. The detached garage offers room for two cars and has a loft for additional storage as well as a separate room for additional storage or office space. Additional features of the home include a 2 zone HVAC, tankless water heater, water softener and filtration system, and multi zone underground irrigation system. The backyard has ample space for a pool or a possible additional dwelling, as the property is eligible for subdivision. Students attend the highly rated Cranbury School K-8 and then go off to Princeton HS. Cranbury is located near the turnpike, the Rte. 130 Park & Ride and the Princeton Junction train station making commuting a breeze.
