95 percent of these homes on Chester Avenue contribute to the historic district status of Moorestown. Of these fifty or so homes, a handful of them were built using the Victorian-style architecture.
Located at 601 Chester Avenue a quarter mile or so from downtown Moorestown, this is one of 351 contributing buildings/structures to this historic district.
