About This Home

-75 N Main Street N

Charming 1880 Historic Home in the Heart of Cranbury Village! Welcome to 75 N. Main Street, a lovingly maintained and character-rich home in the heart of Historic Cranbury, NJ. Built in 1880 and steeped in local lore, this 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom residence beautifully blends timeless charm with thoughtful modern upgrades. Located just a short stroll or scooter ride from Cranbury School (K-8) and with the Princeton High School bus stop conveniently across the street, this home offers both heritage and everyday practicality. From the moment you arrive, the classic facade and inviting front porch evoke a bygone erafitting for a property that has been part of Cranbury's landscape since at least 1834. Owned by one family for over five decades, this home has seen history unfold and has been lovingly adapted across generations. Step inside and you'll discover a unique mix of original details and meaningful updates. The first floor features a spacious living area, a cook's kitchen with a sweeping view of the backyard, a full bathroom, and a versatile bedroom perfect for guests or a home office. The remaining three bedrooms and a second full bath are upstairs, where a clawfoot tubrescued from behind the shed and later reunited with its original feetadds a whimsical, storybook touch. Throughout the home, you'll find rich woodwork with an incredible backstory: all the trim is repurposed pine from the original flooring, and the knotty pine paneling and charming cubby ceiling cabinets in the kitchen date back to a 1945 remodel. In fact, much of the home's character was shaped during this post-war era, including the transformation of the back porch into the cozy extra bedroom on the main floor and the hand-dug basementa collaborative labor of love by local Cranburians to make room for a finished billiard room and photographer's darkroom (complete with a buzzer system to call the artist to dinner!). Over the years, the home has undergone a series of sensitive renovations and practical upgrades. In 1999, both bathrooms were completely redone, and by 2002, the kitchen and basement were renovated to accommodate a growing family. Ceramic tile flooring was added to the basement in 2014 and to the kitchen in 2016. In 2017, the central HVAC was fully updated and attic foam insulation was installed. The kitchen, while anchored by mid-century charm, includes a more recent refrigerator (2024), after the original Viking model departed after 22 years of faithful service. Additional details worth noting: Natural gas heat and central air throughout, a nod to early architecture: the home originally featured a central hearth, likely explaining its two front doorsremoved in the 1945 renovation but remembered in spirit. The downstairs bathroom was once two rooms; in 1999, it was combined into a spacious bath with laundry relocated to the basement. This home is more than a place to liveit's a place with soul, where every room has a story.
