Looking for the perfect weekend escape? Historic Greenwich, in Cumberland County, New Jersey, is an hour and 45 minutes from Princeton, an hour from Philadelphia and the New Jersey shore, and a world apart. Settled in 1686 at the intersection of the Cohansey River and the Delaware Bay, Greenwich today boasts scores of 18th and early 19th century houses, excellent boating, kayaking, and bicycling, and is a gardener’s and nature-lover’s paradise. Despite its charm and beauty, Greenwich remains mostly undiscovered and entirely unspoiled. At 612 Ye Greate Street in Greenwich is the Arcade, an 1834 vernacular South Jersey post-and-beam, center-chimney house with four fireplaces. In 1999 the present owners purchased the Arcade, and under the direction of historic restoration architect Robert Watson, they completed a meticulous, documented restoration of the entire house and surrounding gardens, including a new kitchen and screened porch addition, as well as a period-style outbuilding and heated workshop. No detail was spared in either the restoration or the new construction to make everything historically accurate and sympathetic, while incorporating every modern convenience. The garden is planted with mature, carefully selected trees, shrubs, and perennial flowers. Please see the video tour and the link to the owners’ Arcade website provided in the MLS.
