Description

Step back in time with this timeless masterpiece and park-like setting! The owner has invested their own blood, sweat & tears to bring this nostalgic mid 1800's colonial back to "better-than-new" condition. Not a single detail has been overlooked from the exterior to the interior & true pride shows throughout. With an absolute stunning assortment of perennial plantings, mature trees, original outbuildings, fish ponds and meandering walkways you will feel like you went to the garden center every time you step outside! Backing to Ceres Park; you will always have that park-like feeling & would never know that you're on Main St! Exterior features that have been replaced/refinished include: roof, stucco fa~~ade, solid brick chimneys & capping(essentially maintenance free). New asphalt driveway with a fresh seal-coat & the septic system was completely replaced so no worries there either! Owner converted to public water but left the well for use with landscape, irrigation etc. The interior is beyond charming with gorgeous original woodwork & pegged wood flooring. Adorable bright kitchen with ceramic tile flooring which leads to the dining area. A toasty fireplace with brick hearth in the dining room & custom built-ins for much needed storage. Modern conveniences like a large hot tub in the 3-season room! The large family room with oversized brick fireplace is a nice touch and exposed beams which add to the feel. The basement is bone dry with a French drain system and completely painted/dry-locked walls & floors. There is a remodeled full bathroom & laundry area which complete the 1st floor. 2nd floor with 3 bedrooms plus a bonus study(would also make a great playroom or 2nd floor den)! The walk up 3rd floor attic is a finished hideaway with countless possibilities. This home is impeccable and offers all the charm of the mid 1800's without the maintenance and headaches! One year Home Warranty!

    "It’s really nice to live here you can go outside. Live play work. Do whatever you need to do. It’s very nice no shouting, no arguments no police activity very few crime and it is a very nice place to raise a family. You’ll be very close to the beach it’ll be very close to Philadelphia so you can easily get to where you need to, but also come home and be at a place where you can be safe at your house and not have to worry about someone bothering you in your house And if you like to go to church, you can go to church too. You can basically plan to live here for 10 2030 years or for the rest of your life you can really really plan to live. Here is really really nice to live here. I moved here from Philadelphia. I live in Philadelphia for 10 years. I was got tired of the crime I got tired of the constant headaches people taking a trash cans people putting trash in your trash cans, but when I came here, it was totally different. It was very peaceful. It was very friendly. I don’t see a lot of neighbors talking to each other, but it’s still very friendly here and the community is slowly starting to change little by little, but it’s changing for the good it seems to beand basically what you steal on the news you will not get any of that stuff here."

    "PROS: Very safe, good schools, easy access to major highways, shopping & restaurants. Town park is beautiful & well kept. Rowan University, Gloucester Comm College & new Inspira Hospital nearby. Close to Philly, AC & Beaches CONS: No real town center, roads can get very congested, lots of construction. Schools are not on par with top S Jersey districts like Haddonfield, Cherry Hill or Moorestown. Taxes aren’t as high as those areas but are still relatively pricey. "
