About this home

Step back in time with this circa 1850 Colonial-style home, rich in history and brimming with potential, located in the heart of Salem, New Jersey. Offering approximately 175 years of character, this historic property is a rare opportunity for investors, preservationists, or buyers seeking to restore a true piece of South Jersey heritage. The home features classic Colonial architecture, including some original woodwork, wide-plank flooring, and period details waiting to be revived. Multiple rooms provide a flexible layout, ideal for reimagining while honoring the home’s historic charm. Tall ceilings and generously sized windows allow natural light to fill the space. Situated on a spacious lot, the property offers ample outdoor space for gardens, entertaining, or future improvements. Located close to local shops, historic landmarks, and major roadways, this home combines small-town charm with accessibility. This property is a true fixer-upper and is being sold as-is. Buyer
