The Sarah and Samuel Nicholson House is one of the few in Salem County on The National Register of Historic Places under The United States Department of The Interior – National Park Service. Situated on 2.5 peaceful acres, drive down the regal driveway surrounded by farmland offering phenomenal views year-round. This solid brick homestead has been lovingly and mindfully maintained/preserved. Walk past the gardens and flowerbeds to the front door into the massive Living Room featuring original fireplaces, 6-inch-deep windowsills, and original moldings/trims. The half bath is discreetly tucked in the rear corner. Down the steps to impressive Dining Room with original pine floorboards, moldings that leads into the “original kitchen” with an enormous Hearth adjacent to the bricked over beehive oven with the continuation of the pine floorboards and original bricks which continues to the modern kitchen with retro built in oven, modest wooden cabinets, prep station, triple windows over the sink and ample room for a table. The mud/laundry room is equally large with a stall shower, pantry, closets, additional sink and exterior side door. Nestled behind the kitchen is the tranquil 12 ft x 20 ft screened in porch with brick floor. The first 2nd story level opens directly into bedroom 3 that leads into bedroom 4 with pristine pine floorboards, built-ins, full bath, walk-in closet and stairs leading to attic #1. The upper 2nd story level (over the living room) opens to the primary bedroom to office/walk in closet/bonus room to 2nd bedroom, 2nd full bath (fireplaces, original flooring, built-ins in each of the 3 rooms) and stairs leading to 2nd attic). Detached 3 car garage with finished 2nd floor featuring the 7th fireplace, vaulted ceiling is a great space for a studio, home office or whatever you have in mind. Tucked behind the garages is an ancillary shed. Due to the historic nature of this property all bedrooms are walk-through. The cellar is dry, brick floored with exposed beam, joist and remains of Pie Rack/Cool House. Seller’s will provide C of O, Passing Well and Septic. Due to the historic nature of this home all other inspections are for informational purposes only (however do not let this dismiss any interest, the owner was an exceptional steward for future generations). 30-minute commute to Wilmington, Delaware and approximately 45 minutes to Philadelphia. Deer, wild turkey and serenity included.
