Located at the very end of West Moorestown, this is one of 351 contributing buildings/structures to this historic district. The house is obscured intentionally by overgrown trees and shrubs. You'd have to trespass to get a really good look at this house. Of course, I would never do that.

The Department of the Interior sent me the following narrative/information on this house:
"c.1855. 2½-story, 3-register Downingesque cross-gabled cottage. Brick foundation; frame resided with aluminum. 1920s wraparound Colonial Revival porch. Central entrance, segmental-arched surround, transom, sidelights. 2/2 double hung sash with segmental-arched lintels except west of bay of first floor which is polygonal. Paneled shutters at first floor, louvered at second floor. Double arched window below gable. Bracketed cornice. Interior end chimneys. - Contributing.
