Property Description
Historic Riverton NJ Gem! This rare Shingle-style Victorian home was built in 1889 for Ellen Foster Campbell Spackman, the daughter of Joseph Campbell, founder of Campbell Soup Co., by her husband, Walter Spackman. This "New England," "Seashore-style" home, which became popular with wealthy clients of forward-thinking architects, was designed by Hewitt & Hewitt architects of Philadelphia. Distinct from the more ornate Victorian homes, this is a more informal architecture which remains relevant to our modern lifestyle. The current owners were honored in 2015 with the Daniel Campbell Historic Preservation Award for their noteworthy restoration of this unique property. Located on one of Riverton's most desirable streets and situated on a rare 1.86acres, this 3-story rambling home is wrapped by expansive covered porches which have been completely restored floor to ceilings. The verandas also include an enclosed porch for summer dining or just relaxing. The main entry to the home opens to a grand reception hall dominated by exceptional, completely restored paneling and woodwork . The public rooms off the main hall include a large formal living room, a cozy sitting room with a wood stove, and a large formal dining room with a fabulously restored crystal and brass chandelier and sconces. Each of these rooms boasts a fireplace with original mantel and ornate tile. The kitchen is completely renovated with custom cherry cabinetry, modern appliances, granite countertops and a huge island with plenty of seating and an expansive space for culinary pursuits. Off the kitchen is a convenient half-bath. The laundry is also conveniently located in the kitchen area. Tucked away between the kitchen and the living room is an office, the walls of which were hand-finished by the homeowner with clay plaster. The grand staircase is lighted by beautiful, fully restored stained glass windows. The master ensuite has a gas fireplace and adjacent exercise room. Also on this level are two smaller bedrooms, a main bath, a uniquely large and conveniently outfitted linen closet. A fourth large bedroom is at the end of the hall. On the third floor are two more sizable bedrooms, a balcony overlooking the front yard, and a full bath. One bedroom has an attached study, and the second bedroom on the other side of the third floor has its own skylight, beautiful arched windows and stunning woodwork. The room is large enough to use as a sitting room/bedroom. The property has a fenced in saltwater pool, lawns, gardens. Two 2-car garages accommodate all your sports equipment, bikes, kayaks...classic car? Updates to this lovingly restored home also include such energy efficient additions as: All new electric, all new plumbing including out to the street; 50-year metal roofing, New asphalt roofing on porch and garages; Marvin fiberglass windows on 2nd floor custom-designed to match originals; Whole house insulation; Solar panels generate potentially all electric needed; Lennox furnace installed 2019; 8 mini-split units for whole house cooling.
