This house was owned by one of the few Evans that apparently escaped out of Evesham Twp. I noticed the gable right away which is consistent with the rest of these homes on this street, but beneath the gable is a really interesting and unique window. Look at the picture and check it out for yourself. The house is yellow-sided with black shutters and a neat little porch with non-column supports.
Located at 31 East Second Street in downtown Moorestown, this is one of 351 contributing buildings/structures to this historic district.
The Department of the Interior sent me the following narrative/information on this house:
"c.1850. 2 1/2-story, 3-register gross-gable Gothic Revival house with asbestos shingles. Paneled door with transom and 6/6 double hung sash. Paneled shutters first floor, louvered second floor. Pointed arch 6-light window in gable. 1-story porch on turned posts, cornice sheathed aluminum. 2-story rear addition. - Contributing.”
