House overview

You can tell at first glance that this 1850s Cranbury Colonial Revival has charm to spare.

A picket fence edges the yard, where impressive shade trees join bountiful garden beds and a big grassy lawn. The driveway has plenty of room for guests and a brick path leads back to a studio that's big enough for work and creative endeavors, or a getaway for gaming and exercise.

The house is full of restored original features, the kind that make an antique interior so inviting: cast iron radiators with decorative flourishes, built-in cupboards and, of course, hardwood and wide-plank flooring. The living room has a brick-edged fireplace with a tall mantel and the large dining room opens out to a screened porch.

Commercial meets country in the kitchen, where a commanding Wolf range is surrounded by shaker maple cabinets and marble countertops. A powder room is handy to both the kitchen and the family room.

A wide staircase leads to four bedrooms, each offering something special, like built-in bookshelves or a charming mantel, and closets are more generous than one might expect. Wainscoting and hex tile are just the right finishes for the roomy white bath.

This special home is a fantastic value, a treasured slice of Americana and a true find for anyone looking to take advantage of the beloved local elementary school and Princeton High School.
