    What's special

    Adorable 2 bedroom, 1 bath beach cottage on a quiet cul-de-sac just minutes to the beach and town of Cape May! The home is situated on a large 150 x 151 lot rich with mature plantings and trees. Although this home is technically in Lower Township, the other side of Stimpson (which is the nearest street) is West Cape May so this gives you an idea as to how very close it is to town. Enter this home from a sweet covered porch with an unrestricted view of farm fields, tall trees and forsythia hedges on the front lawn, into a sunny and roomy living room with a bay window. The eat-in kitchen is off the living room via a wide doorway that gives the space an open feeling. There are lots of cabinets and counter space for cooking and entertaining. Just off the kitchen via a sliding door is lovely sunroom that is great for dining or curling up with a good book and looking out upon the large crepe myrtle and evergreens in the backyard. There is a separate laundry room that is easily big enough to add a second bath or powder room. The backyard is spacious and has a country feeling while being only a bike ride to the Beach for the best of all worlds! Two nice sized guest bedrooms and a hall bath complete this charming home. Extras include: Attached one-car garage, pull down stairs for attic storage, and partial furnishings. The detached barn is being sold in AS-IS condition. Sellers disclosure, Expense sheet, Survey and inventory in Associated Docs.
