Common Interior Features in Haddonfield
Ceiling Heights
Varies dramatically by era. 10-12ft in Victorians, 9ft in Colonials, and 8ft in post-war homes.
Wall Materials
Plaster and lath is extremely common in pre-1950s homes, accounting for over 60% of the housing stock. Drywall in newer homes and additions.
Trim & Molding
High-quality, detailed millwork is a hallmark of Haddonfield homes. Ornate Victorian, multi-piece Colonial, and simple Craftsman styles are all prevalent. Preservation of original wood is common.
Kitchen Cabinets
While many have been updated, original butler's pantries with glass-front cabinets exist. Renovations often use high-end, custom or semi-custom cabinets in styles that respect the home's architecture.
Fireplaces
Ornate fireplace mantels (carved wood, marble, or tile) are centerpieces in living rooms and dining rooms.
Staircases
Grand, open staircases with detailed balusters and newel posts are common in Victorians and Colonials. Often feature original, unpainted hardwood.

Cabinet Painting Trends
Classic white or off-white is timeless. Stained wood cabinets are also popular to match historic trim. Bold colors like dark green or navy are used in larger, updated kitchens.
Trim & Woodwork Trends
A mix of trends. In many historic homes, original stained wood trim is preserved and cherished. In others, particularly those with less significant millwork, painting trim white is common to brighten spaces.
Interior Painting Across Haddonfield Neighborhoods
Experience with homes throughout Haddonfield
Downtown Historic District
The core of the borough, featuring grand Victorian, Colonial, and Tudor homes from the 19th and early 20th centuries.
Painting Notes: Highest concentration of plaster walls and ornate millwork. Projects require a high level of skill and often involve historic color consultation.
The Estates Section
Large, stately homes on bigger lots, primarily from the 1920s-1940s. Tudor and Colonial Revival styles dominate.
Painting Notes: Dark wood trim is common. Homeowners often debate painting vs. preserving it. Large rooms with high ceilings are typical.
Hinchman Avenue Area
Mix of smaller Colonials, Cape Cods, and some Ranches from the 1940s-1960s.
Painting Notes: A mix of plaster and drywall. Painting trim white is more common here to make smaller spaces feel larger.
Elizabeth Haddon Area
Centered around the elementary school, primarily 1950s homes with some older Colonials.
Painting Notes: Good quality construction, but interiors often need updating from mid-century colors. Cabinet painting is a popular project.
