About This Home
Step into a home that tells a story. Welcome to the John Kingstone Boland House—lovingly known as The Painted Lady—a stunning 1879 Victorian treasure nestled on one of Moorestown’s most picturesque tree-lined streets. Honored by the Historical Society of Moorestown for Excellence in Historical Preservation, this exquisite home marries timeless beauty with thoughtful, modern comforts.
Painstakingly restored over five years, The Painted Lady was brought back to life with care, craftsmanship, and an eye for detail. From the moment you arrive, you’re greeted by a classic front porch framed by gas lanterns and a blooming perennial garden—an enchanting first impression that only deepens as you step inside.
This one-of-a-kind residence offers four spacious bedrooms and four beautifully appointed full baths. Each space honors the home’s rich heritage while embracing the comforts of today. The heart of the home is an expanded gourmet kitchen, featuring premium appliances, custom cabinetry, generous quartz countertops, and elegant finishes—a perfect place to cook, gather, and make memories.
Open the double doors and step into a private garden sanctuary with a covered porch, ideal for quiet mornings, al fresco dinners, or evenings shared under the stars. This home invites connection—with nature, with loved ones, and with the stories embedded in every lovingly preserved detail.
A detached garage houses a studio guest apartment, complete with a full bath, and portable AC—perfect for hosting family, friends, or creating a quiet retreat or workspace. Featured on Moorestown’s beloved holiday home tour, this property delights in every season and welcomes guests with ease.
Just a short stroll from your front door, discover Moorestown’s vibrant downtown with its award-winning schools, locally owned cafes, a thriving music scene, and the best farmer’s market in New Jersey. From morning bagels to evening concerts, this location offers the very best of community living.
And for an unforgettable twist, head downstairs to uncover a hidden speakeasy behind a secret bookcase door—a whimsical, cozy nod to the past and a favorite surprise for guests.
More than a home, The Painted Lady is a living piece of Moorestown’s history—restored with love, enhanced with intention, and ready to welcome its next chapter. If you’re seeking a home with heart, elegance, and enduring charm, your story begins here.
