Four Seasons at Historic Cranbury sits in Cranbury, New Jersey, in a quiet spot that's close to shops, restaurants, the local inn, and area attractions, so if someone feels like visiting Princeton or taking a trip to New York City or Philadelphia, it's about an hour away. The community feels close-knit, with only 138 homes, including single-family and Carriage Homes, each designed with some local historic charm, showing off things like Victorian front porches, ten-foot ceilings, big bay windows, and landscaped yards that stay neat thanks to regular care. Homes come in several models, such as the Santa Barbara (Sanibel), which is the biggest in the area, or the Captiva, which is upgraded and move-in ready, and they almost always have a two-car garage, attic space, large kitchens, and master suites with big closets, walk-in showers with benches, soaking tubs, and double-sink bathrooms. There are handy touches, like separate laundry rooms with cabinets, freshly painted walls, new oak floors, quartz countertops in the bathrooms, upgraded kitchen appliances, and even programmable smart ovens, so daily life feels straightforward and safe.
The place is set up for people aged 55 and older who look for an active lifestyle but also need some help here and there-there's support for bathing, dressing, medication management, and round-the-clock call systems for peace of mind if anyone needs quick help. There's a main clubhouse that acts as the central hub, offering residents places to gather, play cards or billiards, exercise, or relax by the fireplace, and the community keeps up a busy schedule with events, clubs, movie nights, music, and seasonal parties to keep everyone involved. Outdoors, folks have walking and biking trails, a gazebo, and parks, plus access to a swimming pool, spa, and tennis courts, and indoors there are meeting rooms, a wellness room, arts and crafts areas, and a community theater space.
Dining is flexible, with a dining room, all-day dining, meals made by professionals who take allergies and diabetes into account, so health isn't overlooked. Services on-site include housekeeping, laundry or dry cleaning, help moving in, and a concierge to make small details easier, and for those who need extra care, there's respite care for short-term support and family relief, as well as non-ambulatory care for those who don't get around as easily as they once did. Homes have high-speed internet, cable TV, air conditioning, and private bathrooms; some even have kitchenettes and phones in each room to keep things comfortable and connected.
All the features aim to give people a balance of privacy, comfort, and opportunities to join in with neighbors. The community focuses on simple living with security, medical support, recreation, and convenience so each person can have the type of retirement they want, whether that means a quiet day at home, a walk around the grounds, or joining an activity with friends.
