South Jersey is home to many residential estates.
Some of the most beautiful estate-level residential properties in the northeast can be found in South Jersey. Here’s a glimpse of just a few currently on the market:
This is a splendid, state-of-the-art Haddonfield estate home on sought-after Lane-of-Acres. An impressive gated entrance welcomes you to professionally landscaped grounds along a graceful drive. Separate and apart from the expected ultra-luxury features such as custom-millwork, marble baths and whirlpool tubs, this property offers everything from a putting green, card room, and walk-in humidor to a salt-water fishpond. Nothing has been overlooked.

This 1819 Josiah Lippincott-built Moorestown beauty is on the National Register of Historic Places and boasts the charm, character, and history typical of such properties – as well as features not found in even the most extravagant new homes, including a two-story ballroom, an indoor basketball court, and a two-lane bowling alley. “Tabula Rasa,” of course, means “clean slate.”

Award-winning Nantucket- and Berwyn, PA-based architect Lyman Perry designed this six-bedroom home on nearly three acres in Moorestown. Luxurious features and finishes include a gracious circular drive, an amazing six wood-burning fireplaces (with gas hookups!), an infinity-edge pool, cherry hardwood floors throughout, cedar shingle roofing, natural soapstone kitchen counters, a dumbwaiter-accessed laundry, and not one but two Wolf convection ovens in the kitchen. This is breathtaking yet tasteful extravagance.

Truly unique features characterize this spacious Haddonfield property, among them 19-foot ceilings in the living room, reclaimed barn-wood flooring, a “secret” garden of plantings, rocks, ponds, and waterfalls, and a covered-stone breezeway leading to a remarkable above-ground resistance pool. There’s a wine cellar for oenophiles, and a cedar-lined storage room for seasonal clothing. For extra comfort throughout the home, there are an impressive seven separate heating and cooling zones, with radiant-heated floors throughout.

Hotel owner and captain of industry Joseph Roberts built this Georgian Revival estate at the turn of the century, and owners since have maintained this historic gem – set atop a hill in one of the premier neighborhoods of Morrestown - to absolute perfection. It boasts an all-brick exterior, functional shutters, a cedar shake-shingle roof, dramatically curving bay windows, a majestic portico, cherry and chestnut pocket doors throughout the home, and a level of finish carpentry virtually unheard of in today’s homes.

A circular driveway brings you up to this glorious home, situated on over two acres of lush landscaping. Through the stately double front door are features such as marble-clad floors in the foyer, a fashionable tray-ceilinged dining room, a first-floor study/library, a vaulted-ceilinged breakfast room, and a butler’s pantry with its own granite prep-counters. Tucked away on a private cul-de-sac in Moorestown, this home boasts a beamed-ceilinged family room and a separate media room with custom built-ins.

This is a sublime and elegantly appointed French Normandy inspired 19th century brick estate, set on the Ranconas Creek in Moorestown, offering a large family an impressive seven bedrooms, three full-baths, and three powder-rooms. The original plasterwork details are impressive, as are features such as four working fireplaces, a three-car detached garage, a guesthouse, chapel, and in-ground swimming pool. The kitchen is totally state of the art, with Viking, Bosch, and Gaggenau appliances.
