Property Description
Built in 1875, Capt. David and Elizabeth Shelhorn's Ivy Cottage is a 3 bedroom, 1 bath home located in the heart of historic Mauricetown. The home reflects the simple, straightforward character that defines this quiet river town, known for its preserved homes, small-town feel, and close connection to the surrounding landscape. The setting is peaceful and natural, with mature trees, open space, and the Maurice River just a short distance away, as shown in the aerial views. The area remains largely untouched, offering a sense of calm that's becoming harder to find. The Property is being conveyed strictly in As-Is condition, with the buyer responsible for all inspections, repairs, certifications and twp CCO. For those willing to invest the effort, Ivy Cottage offers an opportunity to restore a piece of local history in one of South Jersey's most quietly charming historic communities. To allow proper exposure to the market, and in the spirit of fair play, once showings begin, this listing will be marketed for 1 WEEK before the seller will be reviewing the Offer's.
