This building is now a law office as well as a home. I bumped into a couple who lived in the top floor. There is a dramatic pointed arch multi light window to which you will be immediately drawn.
Located at 68 East Main 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.1860. 2 1/2-story, frame (resided in aluminum) cross-gabled T-shaped Gothic Revival house with 1-story Colonial Revival porch supported on Tuscan columns. Three entries; center 8-panel door with semicircular leaded fanlight flanked by glazed and paneled side doors. First floor, 1/1 double hung window and single pane shop window; second floor center 4/1 double hung with metal louvered shutters. Pointed arch multi-light window in gable; box cornice; asphalt roof. 19th century, 1-story clapboarded shed in rear with stone foundation. - Contributing.”
