About this home
Steeped in the history that defines Cranbury this distinguished 1910 residence designed and first occupied by the architect of Princeton's original football stadium stands as one of the most thoughtfully preserved and meticulously updated homes in the Village. Steps from the shops, restaurants, and community life of downtown with top-rated Cranbury School District just around the corner and direct access to Princeton-area and NYC commuter routes, this is a rare opportunity to own a piece of New Jersey's most celebrated historic village without sacrificing a single modern comfort. Set behind rose gardens and thoughtfully designed hardscaping, the landmark 900-square-foot wraparound porch rebuilt in 2020 using the home's original capstones offers a front-row seat to the rhythms of Main Street. Inside, quarter-sawn oak floors with characteristic ribbon grain flow through gracious, light-filled rooms connected by original pocket doors that make the layout equally suited to lively entertaining and quiet evenings at home. Interior details have been addressed with the same reverence for period authenticity: push-button light switches in working order, hand-replastered lath-and-plaster walls, and lovingly restored original stained glass fitted with insulating outer panes for year-round comfort. The completely reconstructed kitchen pairs historic soul with serious culinary function New Jersey soapstone countertops, a BlueStar range and French door oven, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, custom cabinetry, and a handsome venting hood, all grounded by genuine linseed-oil linoleum flooring. The former dumbwaiter shaft now serves as a charming pantry with a pulley light that winks at its origins. The primary suite has been completely reimagined with custom built-ins, double-paned windows, and a spa-quality marble bath appointed with Perrin & Rowe Edwardian fixtures hardware drawn from the very decade the house was born. A second bath features subway tile, a chrome-legged enamel sink, and an intricate marble floor. A loft at the top of the stairs serves beautifully as a home office or reading nook, opening onto one of the home's several outdoor spaces. Above it all, the finished attic adds 740 square feet of versatile living space including a fifth bedroom with whimsical sloped ceilings, a media area with surround sound, a walk-in closet, custom library shelving, a dedicated electrical sub-panel, and mini-split heating and cooling a private retreat that feels entirely separate from the floors below. The home's infrastructure matches the ambition of its finishes: French drain and tar-sealed foundation, structural reinforcement by engineers, all-copper wiring, closed- and open-cell spray foam roof insulation, and a wine cellar finished with hand-painted metallic insulation and custom racking. Multiple porches extend the living space into three seasons. 14 North Main Street is not a home that has been preserved it is a home that has been perfected....
