Property Description

Step back in time and immerse yourself in the grandeur of this late 19th-century Queen Anne Victorian, a true Merchantville treasure steeped in history! Built by the esteemed industrialist Isaac Ferris, Jr., this magnificent residence was originally envisioned as a sprawling summer retreat for Isaac and his wife, Sarah. Spanning over 4,000 sq ft, this home boasts 6 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, and a wealth of intricate moldings and original embellishments, and has been tastefully restored with period-correct fittings, along with a host of the latest amenities.

Originally a grand single-family home with a detached carriage house, this property has been transformed over 127 years and is now permanently zoned as duplex with the main house and a fully featured 2 bedroom apartment in the carriage house. The unique financial benefit of the current rental income almost completely offsets the taxes for the entire property. Imagine the possibilities: a beautiful home, a thriving community, and a smart investment.

Stepping in from the huge wraparound porch, the formal entry Foyer, complete with a decorative fireplace, warmly welcomes you and offers convenient access to the main floor laundry with new washer and dryer. The formal Parlor boasts soaring ceilings and original pocket doors, creating an inviting space for relaxation and conversation. The spacious Dining Room features a Swarovski crystal chandelier and detailed paneling that showcases the craftsmanship of this home’s era. The ample sized Kitchen offers a 48” commercial gas range/double oven, leathered granite counters, subway tiled backsplash and a built-in storage hutch original to the home. The main level also includes an updated half bath, an office area, a spacious family room featuring separately zoned HVAC, gas Fireplace, and wired surround sound, PLUS an enclosed 3 season room for bonus enjoyment!

As you ascend the main staircase, you’ll find gorgeous stained glass windows. The 2nd floor features 4 generously sized Bedrooms with one that includes a private full Bathroom, while an updated hall Bath serves the remaining rooms. The rear staircase leads directly to the largest bedroom with a decorative fireplace and stained glass windows. Storage is plentiful throughout this level. Discover soaring ceilings accentuating the spacious fifth and sixth bedrooms on the 3rd floor. One bedroom is currently configured as a colossal game room, complete with a projector and retractable screen, it's the perfect haven for movie nights and gaming adventures. Adjacent to this, you'll find another bedroom currently used as a hobby/craft room, ideal for unleashing your creativity. A full bath floor ensures convenience and adds to the versatility of this level.

Along with multiple other storage spaces on this level, there is a dedicated storage and mechanical room, housing the third zone of the HVAC system. The Full Basement also provides even more additional storage space. All knob and tube wiring replaced throughout the property, newer roofs on the main house and carriage house, newer multi-zoned HVAC, and multiple integrated smart home thermostats, lights and door lock controls.

Carriage house includes dedicated tenant laundry, storage and independent electric and gas and has a reliable long-term tenant. There is plenty of additional storage area for homeowners on the ground level. Unbeatable location with front row seating to the town's holiday parade, a corner lot at the epicenter of Halloween's transformative Monsterville, and located within 2 blocks of downtown - where you can find shops, restaurants, brewery, walking path, seasonal farmer's market and much more! This historic gem comes with a 1 year home warranty for added peace of mind. Check details tab for complete list of improvements!
