Own a local landmark with a rich history in this circa 1800 Italianate home showcasing a variety of period details. In the mid-1800s it provided lodging and meals to steamboat passengers headed to Philadelphia via the Rancocas Creek, and it operated as an inn called The Hainesport House from the 1920s-50s. Today, this gracefully restored home is perfect for entertaining and includes spacious formal spaces with high ceilings, including two front living rooms featuring original stained glass windows and working fireplaces. An updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances, a granite-toped center island and rear staircase offers vintage farmhouse charm. Arranged on three levels, the flowing center hall layout has two staircases, wood floors, six bedrooms, three full baths and a powder room. Lounge on the huge covered front porch to watch sunsets over the Rancocas Creek, or relax by the in-ground pool in the landscaped and fenced backyard with a brick patio and green lawns. Flower beds, vegetable gardens and two sheds lend additional appeal to the manicured grounds. Within a few blocks are the elementary school and town park, while I-295 is less than 6 miles away for a 30-minute drive to Philadelphia.
