Property Description
The original structure was built in a Dutch-influenced brick style in the mid-18th century. In 1820, a stately Georgian Manor-style addition expanded the home, creating a striking blend of early American architectural traditions rarely found in rural Salem County.
Offering approximately 3,000 square feet of living space, the property features many preserved historic elements including original wide-plank pine floors, exposed timber framing, decorative pilasters, a classic fanlight entry surround, and dormer accents that reflect refined colonial craftsmanship. Large windows throughout the home fill the interior with natural light and highlight the generous proportions typical of early American architecture.
The home currently offers four spacious bedrooms and one bathroom, with plumbing already in place for a potential second bathroom. A large kitchen area awaits renovation, giving the next owner the opportunity to design the space to suit their vision.
Since purchasing the property in 2021, significant restoration work has already been completed, including uncovering and restoring original wide-plank floors, revealing historic timber framing, and completing plaster work on the exterior and basement walls. As with many historic properties of this age, the home offers the opportunity for continued restoration and customization, with the next phase focused primarily on kitchen completion and additional interior finishing. This provides a strong foundation for buyers to complete the project according to their vision.
Historically operating as the Alloway Tavern and Public House, the building served travelers at this historic crossroads for generations and remains a well-known landmark within the community.
The property is not located within a historic district and carries no deed restrictions, offering flexibility for restoration or modernization while preserving its historic character.
The home will also be featured on an upcoming historic tour hosted by the Salem County Historical Society, recognizing its architectural and cultural significance within the region.
With approximately 3,000 square feet of space and priced at roughly $100 per square foot, the Alloway Tavern represents a rare opportunity for buyers seeking a distinctive historic home with restoration potential and a remarkable story to carry forward.
