A Piece of History. A Lifetime of Memories. A Future Full of Possibilities.
Welcome to Chesterfield Floral Co., Inc., where history, charm, and opportunity come together in the heart of historic Chesterfield, New Jersey. Some buildings are simply places to live or work. Others become part of a community's story. For more than a century, this beautiful property has stood as a reminder of a simpler time, when craftsmanship mattered, front porches welcomed visitors, and every building had a story to tell.
Built in 1901, this remarkable three-story property offers over 4,000 square feet of character, charm, and endless possibilities, nestled on a picturesque 0.501-acre lot in the historic town of Chesterfield, NJ. Its timeless beauty and architectural significance even earned it a place on the Chesterfield Historical Society's House Tour — a testament to the history and craftsmanship preserved within its walls.
From the moment you approach the inviting wraparound porch, with its beautiful, paneled woodwork and decorative scrolled brackets, you can almost imagine generations of conversations, laughter, and memories shared here.
Inside, gorgeous, refinished hardwood floors, built-in shelving, and original architectural details offer a warmth and personality that simply cannot be duplicated in today's construction. The windows have been lovingly stripped, reglazed, primed, and painted, preserving their historic character, while Andersen windows and other improvements add to the property's appeal.
For years, these walls have been home to Chesterfield Floral Co., Inc., a business built around life's most meaningful moments — weddings, celebrations, milestones, and the simple beauty of flowers. Imagine the countless bouquets, the happy brides, the celebrations of new beginnings, and the memories this special place has helped bring to life.
Now, it's time for someone new to write the next chapter.
For the entrepreneur with a dream, this is an extraordinary opportunity to carry on an established name and build upon its legacy. The sale includes exclusive use of the Chesterfield Floral Co., Inc. business name, portfolio, and social media accounts, along with a delivery van. Storage racks, rolling racks, storage units, air-conditioning units, artwork, and most furniture are also included, offering a wonderful foundation for someone looking to continue or reinvent the business.
But perhaps your dream looks a little different.
Imagine transforming this historic treasure into the home you've always envisioned. Although the building has been used exclusively for business purposes, its spacious three-story layout offers incredible potential for residential conversion, subject to applicable approvals. Picture a beautiful new kitchen filled with the aroma of Sunday dinners, inviting gathering spaces where family and friends come together, and multiple bedrooms thoughtfully created throughout the second and third floors. With an ADA-approved first-floor bathroom and a wheelchair-accessible ramp at the rear entrance, and powder room on the second floor.
Outside, the property offers even more to love. An 18' x 20' two-story historic carriage house provides additional space for storage, a workshop, creative pursuits, or whatever your future may hold. The generous grounds offer room to enjoy the changing seasons, from the first blooms of spring to the golden colors of autumn.
This isn't just a property. It's a chance to become part of Chesterfield's history while creating a legacy of your own.
Whether you envision continuing a beloved floral business, establishing a new creative venture, or breathing new residential life into this century-old beauty, one thing is certain: opportunities with this much character, history, and potential don't come along every day.
This special property is ready for someone who sees beyond what it is today and dreams of everything it could become. A detailed list of items included (see list) in documents.
