Another absolutely stunning house. This is just about large enough to be considered a mansion. See what a million dollars or more will get you in the best place to live in the United States.

Located at 217 Chester Avenue a quarter mile or so from 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.1885. 2 ½ story Queen Anne-style house, stuccoed. Wraparound Colonial Revival porch, Doric columns. Fan-lighted and side-lighted entrance. paired and single windows, Queen Anne multi-light/1 double hung sash, multi-gabled roof. - Contributing.
