A Rare Piece of History in Southern New Jersey Step back in time at 154 Beal Road — a meticulously restored 1755 brick farmhouse that once served as a tavern and gathering place in the heart of South Jersey. This 3-bedroom, 1-bath residence sits on 1.10 scenic acres surrounded by protected farmland in Salem County and is a true architectural gem, celebrated in the February 2007 issue of Early American Life magazine for its authentic Down Jersey restoration. Painstakingly brought back to life by the owners, the home showcases a thoughtful preservation of 18th-century craftsmanship, including Flemish bond brickwork, hand-hewn beams, and period-accurate finishes that honor its Colonial roots. The restoration process uncovered original architectural details, such as wide-plank floors, a central walk-in fireplace, and hand-forged hardware, all of which tell the story of the home’s early American heritage. Inside, you'll find approximately 1,800 square feet of warm, inviting living space filled with natural light and historic charm. Outside, the property features low stone walls built in the traditional style to provide a stepped and leveled front lawn—another nod to its 18th-century past. A charming garden shed and rustic chicken coop sit tucked toward the back of the property, offering functional outdoor space and a taste of country living. Located just a short drive from Elmer's town center, this one-of-a-kind home offers peaceful rural living with historical significance and timeless style. Whether you're a preservation enthusiast, historian, or someone drawn to homes with character and legacy, this property is a once-in-a-generation opportunity.
