With a deep respect for the history of this gracious 1800 white washed brick federal style colonial on Cranbury's charming Main Street, this elegant house, known locally as The House of Doctors was featured on the Cranbury Tercentennial House Tour. Architectural details include hand carved mantels, wide board flooring and wrought iron grill work on the front door panels. The property is within Cranbury's Historic Downtown which is on the National Register of Historic Districts and is considered one of New Jersey's best preserved historic villages. Completely reimagined in 2010/2011 to become the comfortable home it is today, it was taken down to the studs in many rooms to add modern conveniences of 2 zone central air and heat, two and a half new bathrooms, a new gourmet kitchen featuring Mouser cabinets, some with glass front doors, DCS commercial grade appliances (gas stove with integrated gas grill, double convection wall ovens, warming drawer,) Miele dishwasher, Sharp microwave drawer in the island, custom copper range hood, granite countertops and copper farm sink to name just some of the changes made. An exposed brick wall and crystal chandelier and fixtures add a whimsical touch to the sophisticated space. Always mindful of the historic elements of the house, hardware, doors, hinges and wide plank floors were preserved wherever possible. Perhaps the most coveted feature of this classic home is its location along Brainerd Lake. During the massive renovation, the current owner added a dining room with a wall of Andersen windows to take advantage of the spectacular view as well as a wrap around, providing hours of relaxation while taking in the view of the water and the charming cottage garden with its antique brick and bluestone patios, specimen trees, amethyst water fall and white picket fence. The acclaimed Cranbury K-8 and Princeton High School are bonuses. This truly remarkable residence must be experienced to be appreciated and will become a cherished home for the next fortunate owner. **Owner is a licensed real estate agent**
