Description

Country living meets architectural preservation on a huge lot in Titusville. The Andrew Mershon Tavern, circa 1746, is a rare opportunity for the restoration-minded buyer or investor to bring a piece of NJ history back to life. Pumpkin pine floors, hand-hewn exposed beams, stone fireplace, and a family room with interior masonry walls ? this home retains architectural details that simply aren't replicated in new construction. Named on Preservation New Jersey's 2025 Ten Most Endangered Historic Places list, this property is a significant undertaking that is well-suited to investors, restoration specialists, or buyers with a genuine passion for historic architecture. HUD-owned. Sold strictly as-is. Seller nor its representatives make any representations or warranties regarding the property. Buyer to complete own due diligence and verify all information. A once-in-a-generation chance to save a piece of Revolutionary-era New Jersey.
