I found this to be a very "complicated" house in that there is so much detail to see and absorb. it was difficult taking pictures and deciding which to use as most of the "action" for this structure is shared equally by the front and the left. It is a beautiful home filled with Victorian-oriented architectural details. Located in downtown Moorestown, west of Church Street, 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.1890. Queen Anne-style gabled cottage. Wraparound porch with corner entrance, turned posts, decorative gable. Main entrance with sidelights, transom infilled. First floor polygonal bay. Single and paired 1/1 double hung windows above. Resided with aluminum. Slate Roof. - Contributing.
