Property Description
Dating back to 1790, this magnificent brick Colonial home sits on almost two acres and is nestled in the tranquil countryside of Alloway Township, Salem County, New Jersey. Known as the Col. Jacob Hitchner House, this historic landmark is steeped in legend, with ties to George Washington. It is said that Col. Jacob Hitchner earned a battlefield commission for heroically providing food to Washington's starving men at Valley Forge. Originally built circa 1760 and completed in 1790, the house has served many roles over its storied history, including as a Revolutionary War-era tavern and stagecoach stop, a town center, a farm, and a private residence. The home features six bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms, along with a rich array of period details. Random-width pine floors, exposed beams, period hardware, interior wood paneling, chair rails, and five fireplaces—two of which are functional—contribute to its historic charm. The formal staircase is a masterpiece, crafted from rare tiger maple and cherry wood, while an enclosed back staircase offers additional access. The country kitchen is warm and inviting, with a working grand kitchen hearth, built-in cupboards, a pantry, stainless steel appliances, solid surface countertops, and a large eat-in area. The living and dining rooms boast fireplace mantels carved by Samuel Field McIntire, a renowned 18th-century artisan whose works are displayed in prestigious museums such as the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Art Institute of Chicago. The paint colors in throughout the home are original and time period correct. The second floor is divided into two levels, a custom bathroom with a walk-in shower, and a spacious dressing area; and a separate level with two additional bedrooms and a full bathroom. The third floor offers 3 additional bedrooms one of which is large enough to have a 2nd living room featuring antique pine built-in closets. Outside, the covered front porch invites relaxation, while the secluded brick patio with a pergola is surrounded by mature landscaping. Two storage outbuildings provide ample space for practical needs. Modern updates seamlessly blend with the home's historic character, including a new premium furnace, a new air conditioning system, and a septic system installed in 2014 that is large enough to accommodate a bed and breakfast. Currently setup as a vacation home and airbnb with the option for some of the furniture to be included in the sale. This home is also perfectly situated to enjoy the best of rural and urban living. It is just minutes from the famous Cowtown Farmers Market and Rodeo, several golf courses, and within a 20-minute drive to fabulous shopping and restaurants. For those seeking more adventure, the property is less than an hour from both Philadelphia and the Jersey Shore, offering easy access to city attractions and coastal escapes. This extraordinary property is a rare opportunity to own a beautifully preserved and thoughtfully updated piece of American history.
