The two, segmented dormers which sit atop this home and the side balcony both at the second floor, are the most notable features. Today this home serves two commercial interests, being divided into two sections.

Located at 1-3 East Main Street in downtown Moorestown, this is one of 351 contributing buildings/structures to this historic district.
