    What's special

    Welcome to Cranbury's most character-rich home. This 1860 antique is singularly unique--from the beautiful front view/yard of the home, to the pond this home overlooks, nothing comes close. Situated on a beautiful acre on the corner of a low-travelled one-way road, and facing Grumman Ave this home feels like it could have been home to a scholar or founding father, with built-in shelving and books everywhere to complement the character in each room. There is a study/foyer at the center, leading to a large living room with a fireplace, and a sunroom that overlooks the pond. Upstairs there are two bedrooms and a bathroom, and lots of little attics and nooks for storage. There are two additional bedrooms on the main level, both with updated full bathroom suites including a large, impressive primary suite. As you go downstairs, you discover the great entertaining space, the dining room and kitchen. The kitchen is updated, and has lots of little nooks, including a pantry, bar, and half bath, and a mudroom that gets you to the side yard and hammock. The dining room has a fireplace at its center and overlooks the pond. There is a large family room being used as a library on the other side of the foyer, with walk-out to the large back patio. The back door in the foyer leads to an amazing screened porch. All of this charm is just minutes from schools (Cranbury), parks, the highways, shopping, and restaurants. It's priced to sell and just looking for a lucky buyer! There are too many features to note here, so you just have to see it in person to understand what you are getting!
