Read the full listing description
Welcome to this amazing property in desired Cranbury. This home has a huge amount of potential, depending on your wants and needs. It rests on well over an acre of land that is level and private--your very own oasis of quiet living. The back of the lot overlooks some part of Norwalk and Wilton, making it perfect for a mansion on the hill. You can make this 3 bed, 1.5 bath ranch your own, with cosmetic upgrades and some vision--it's already set far off the road, creating privacy. It has an amazing living room with a beautiful stone fireplace at the center. The large kitchen leads to an enclosed patio and the back yard. The layout is functional but can be changed with a bit of creativity. There is also a large driveway and 2 car garage on the property if you choose to renovate. If not, this 1.3 acre lot can be many things--a new home, an expanded home, or just a park if you choose. Clear the land, keep the mature trees, and see it to its full potential. The lot is set minutes from the shopping and restaurants located on Route 7. It's a short bike ride to Cranbury Park and Mansion, as well as all the highways, schools and amenities that Cranbury has to offer. In a nutshell, this property is a unique offering in a price point that is unbeatable in this market. See it quickly before it gets taken off!

Interpretation note: A dense sequence can suggest coordinated work, but permit issue dates do not establish completion and separate town records are not automatically combined.
How we compile this. The source is Norwalk municipal permit records. These records are imported periodically and are not a live feed from the town. A permit’s presence does not, by itself, confirm that work was completed or passed final inspection. Dates shown are issue dates unless identified otherwise. Descriptions may be lightly edited for readability without changing material details. Dollar amounts are town-reported project costs or permit valuations, not estimates of the property’s market value.
