A Suspicious Character reads the headline! Break and entry. Theft. How am I ever going to interest potential buyers in this beautiful 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom Victorian homes for sale in White Township NJ when a crime has been documented in the press? Does this need to be disclosed to one and all? I don’t know that the culprit was ever apprehended!
But before we call out the CSI or Cold Case team, the heist did occur in 1873 at what is now a Victorian homes for sale at 603 Brass Castle Road, White Township NJ 07823. Odds are really, really slim that the culprit will be back…
A hooligan between 18 and 20 was spotted with a white birch hoop-pole* in the area. When the owner returned, Peter Willever found this hoop-pole under a window through which the dude entered and dropped his dirty duds. He donned Mr. Willever’s best garments, headed to Oxford Furnace and jumped a train to Phillipsburg. The despicable cad!
So, will this crime stop YOU from purchasing a lovely 1800s Queen Anne Victorian on 1.34 acres on a coveted corner? Maybe you’re like me and will enjoy homes with history. Perhaps you are a descendant of the suit thief who knows after he left 603 Brass Castle Road in Mr. Willever’s suit, he married an heiress and had a wonderful life, never again turning to crime…
* Hoop-pole – This took some digging on my part! Green or pliable wood was used to make hoops that were then used for barrels and casks. White birch saplings were especially useful for this.
Due to the shared 07823 zip code, some sites might show that 603 Brass Castle Road is in Belvidere NJ.
