Spacious Cape in upper Cranbury with many upgrades. New roof, siding and gutters (2022). All new entry doors (2020). New air-conditioning (2019). A beautiful custom designed bi-level deck and patio with optional cover and an outdoor kitchen was added to the private yard in 2023 - it is a must see! Additional upgrades include multiple new windows, new and refinished flooring plus outdoor lighting. A new gravel driveway (2024) provides an abundance of parking and leads to a heated and insulated garage. Enjoy the open flow between the kitchen, living room and dining room. The living room offers vaulted beamed ceilings with skylights, french doors to deck plus a pellet stove that will cut your heating bills. Kitchen upgrades include newer appliances and custom-made center island. Custom dining room built-ins provide additional storage. The first-floor bedrooms can also be used as a home office and/or playroom. On the second floor you will find two additional large bedrooms and a second full bath. There is an unfinished basement to provide ample storage. Not much left to do on this one!
