Property Description
Super buy in Pitman! This 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom colonial is just a short walk to shopping, restaurants, fairs, theatre, bakery... etc. RARE- This home has a full basement which is very unusual for the area. You wouldn't know it from its sedate downtown today, but Pitman was once such a popular summer destination that more than a dozen trains a day would bring visitors to enjoy the town's offerings. You'll find the community of Pitman Grove just off Broadway, marked by a simple metal arch. Stroll down the walkway and you'll find yourself on First Avenue, one of the twelve sidewalks that radiates from the community's literal and spiritual hub, a trellised open-air building, or tabernacle. Each of these streets is meant to represent one of Jesus' disciples. On either side of each narrow pathway are tiny houses on 30x40 foot lots, many decked in Victorian gingerbread and happy pastel shades. Pitman Grove is a relic of the Camp Meeting movement that took hold in America following the Civil War. In this case, followers - would unite in tent settlements for a few weeks in the summer to attend religious services and share fellowship in a rustic setting. Community members eventually started to build summer cottages on their lots, and a town grew up around them, with a store, restaurants, a barber, ice cream parlor and more. The town also invested in upgraded infrastructure, clearly seeing the value in keeping the community viable.
