Property Details

Unique opportunity to own this Edwardian-era Seaside Mansion on Historic Jackson Street in Cape May! The property consists of the main house, a garden apartment and a detached 2 car garage. Built during a period when rooms were large, spacious and airy, the main house offers 3 levels, with 7 bedrooms, 7 1/2 baths. There is no shortage of outdoor living space with three distinct spaces - a wraparound front porch, a second floor porch which is private to 2 bedrooms, and a third floor sundeck with spectacular ocean views. The first floor features a grand living room and gracious family room, along with the fully renovated kitchen. No expense was spared in the kitchen, which features Small Bone kitchen cabinets, double oven, steam oven, built-in coffee maker and wine refrigerator. Off the kitchen is a breakfast nook. For more formal meals there is a formal dining room with gas fireplace. Also located on the first floor is an ensuite bedroom and additional powder room. The grand staircase leads to the 2nd floor where you will find the ensuite primary bedroom with fully renovated bathroom and 3 additional ensuite bedrooms and laundry room. Accessible from the front 2 bedrooms is a large deck overlooking Jackson Street. The 3rd floor offers 2 more ensuite bedrooms and a rear deck with beautiful ocean views. The Garden Level has a spacious apartment, currently 1 bedroom but easily convertible to 2-3 bedrooms, with separate exterior access and rear patio. There is an oversized utility room with 2 sets of washers and dryers, extra refrigerator and freezer space, plenty of workspace and storage, plus an additional art room. The property boasts plenty of parking, a premium on Jackson Street, with 2 driveways easily accommodating 8-10 cars. Extensive upgrades for today’s standards while carefully maintaining the historical character have been done. The highlights of the improvements include new plumbing, including water/sewer lines, new electric, new blown in insulation, new boiler and hot water heater, new mini-splits for AC, new concrete drives and sidewalks, and exterior paint just 2 ½ years ago. This is truly a masterpiece and must be seen to be fully appreciated. Shown by appointment only.
