Own a piece of history with this exceptional 1890 Victorian residence located on the prestigious Washington Avenue in Haddonfield. This home was originally built and cherished by the Danenhower family, with ownership carefully passed down through generations until it found its way to the current owners. In 2015, a loving and meticulous restoration by Legnola Builders took place, ensuring that every detail was thoughtfully preserved to maintain the charm and character that define this architectural gem. From the carefully repaired plaster walls to the replication of original trim work and doors in every room, the restoration journey was a labor of love. The home's original hardwood floors were not only restored but also enriched with replacement parts salvaged from the historic Philadelphia Racquet Club, lending an air of authenticity to the entire space. This harmonious blend of history and modernity extends to essential aspects as well, with a newer roof, upgraded heating and air conditioning systems, enhanced plumbing, all new electric, and a functional full storage basement. The home has also been professionally Feng Shui'd! The grandeur of the past welcomes you as you step through the entrance, with gleaming hardwood floors and a beautiful wrapping staircase. While the layout of the home embraces an open feel, each room is thoughtfully designed to maintain its distinct identity. For added privacy, pocket doors in the living room can be used to create separate spaces when desired. The heart of this residence lies in its beautifully appointed newer kitchen. With custom cabinetry featuring a library ladder for easy access to upper cabinets, soapstone countertops, stainless steel appliances, an induction cooktop, and a generously sized center island with stool seating, this kitchen seamlessly marries classic elegance with modern functionality. An antique farmhouse sink, sourced all the way from Massachusetts, adds a touch of nostalgia. The kitchen also has two pantries; a smaller one for extra storage and a large pantry with a quartz countertop and three extra outlets to house additional appliances and electronics. Modern convenience is seamlessly integrated into the home's design with a conveniently located powder room adjacent to the kitchen and a well-appointed mudroom on the first floor housing the laundry facilities, ensuring practicality without sacrificing style. Upstairs, the tasteful charm and modern appeal continue. Three bedrooms and two fully renovated bathrooms provide comfortable and elegant living spaces. The primary suite stands out with a spacious walk-in closet and a sizable bathroom adorned with gorgeous tiled floors. The soaking clawfoot tub, shipped from North Carolina to align with the home's time period, complements the walk-in shower, double vanity, and water closet. The two linen closets within the bathroom have additional outlets to ensure the sinks stay clutter-free. The additional bedrooms on the second floor boast ample space and large closets, a rarity for the era in which the home was built. The third floor mirrors the layout of the second floor, presenting unfinished space bursting with potential. It offers three additional rooms, plus space and rough-in plumbing for a full bathroom. The HVAC system was intelligently installed to service both the second and third floors. Situated on a substantial lot of .47 acres, the home also features an oversized carriage house. The borough has recently approved a zoning permit for coverage of a 4,800 square foot addition, opening doors to even more possibilities. Steps from downtown with its array of shopping and dining options in addition to Central Elementary and Haddonfield Middle School and the PATCO train station. And, of course, this famed street is renowned for hosting the best trick-or-treating and decorations during the Halloween season. This property is truly a seamless blend of eras, and an embodiment of the charm and vitality of Haddonfield.
