About this home
Welcome to 500 Chester Ave, a rare opportunity to own a distinguished 6,800 square foot historic residence built in 1888, ideally situated just steps from the charming downtown of Moorestown. This timeless 7 (POSSIBLY 8) bedroom estate offers five-and-a-half baths thoughtfully positioned across multiple levels — including a beautifully finished basement — blending preserved architectural character with seamless modern upgrades throughout.
Arrive in style from the stately Chester Avenue entrance and step onto the expansive wrap-around front porch before entering the grand main foyer, where historic charm and refined finishes immediately impress. For added convenience and privacy, utilize the second driveway and one of three covered garage spaces, then enter through the breezeway connecting the backyard to the home.
The main level offers exceptional versatility with three distinct living spaces ideal for formal living rooms, family rooms, or executive home offices. An oversized family room flows effortlessly off the kitchen, while a warm study or den with its own fireplace provides a cozy retreat. Six fireplaces throughout the main and upper levels create ambiance and comfort at every turn, including a striking multi-view fireplace centrally positioned to be enjoyed from four adjoining rooms.
The chef’s kitchen is truly a showpiece, featuring an enlarged center island, dual ovens, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, dual sinks, abundant cabinetry, a bright breakfast room, and a butler’s pantry. Designed for both daily living and entertaining, the layout blends elegance and functionality at every corner.
The finished lower level expands your living space with an enormous recreation area, entertainment bar, full bath, and bonus retreat or workspace, offering flexibility for guests, hobbies, or extended stays. Outside, your private backyard oasis awaits with a large in-ground pool surrounded by an expansive patio designed for gatherings and grand-scale entertaining.
The grounds are equally impressive, with mature gardens nurtured over decades and thoughtfully divided into distinct areas showcasing a fountain, pond, and curated horticultural designs. Additional highlights include a whole-house sound system, fire and safety alarm system, sprinkler system, and access to the highly coveted Moorestown school district.
This is more than a home — it is a legacy property offering luxury, history, walkability to downtown shopping and dining, and the timeless elegance that only a residence of this stature can provide....
