History and description
In 1872, Catharine Lucretia Britton acquired  here following her father's death. On February 3, 1875, she married John Wicoff and moved here. The house likely dates to this time. On June 8, 1878, their only child, John Van Buren (J.V.B.) Wicoff was born. He graduated from Princeton University in 1900 and became a locally prominent attorney, politician, banker, and farmer. He lived in the house until his death in 1952. It was purchased by Township of Plainsboro in 1977 for use as a municipal center. Starting in 1995, the Plainsboro Historical Society operated a museum in the house.

The house is a two story frame building featuring Italianate style. Elements of Classical Revival style were added in 1929 when the house was expanded and altered.
