    What's special

    Here is a Cape May cottage that is the epitome of charming. This historic home has been lovingly updated for comfort and convenience while maintaining the character and details only found in antique homes. Built-ins and decorative trim-work are throughout. Hardwood floors grace most of the house. The first floor includes the living room, a dining room with a built-in hutch, an updated kitchen with a breakfast nook, a large pantry/laundry room and a full bath. The second floor has two bedrooms and a full bath. One of these bedrooms has a large sitting room with built-in-shelves. The third floor has another bedroom and a cozy reading nook. This home is turn-key. Just bring your beach towels as most furnishings are included. This is an ideal location, just a 5 minute bike ride to the best ocean beaches and right across the street from the Cape May Marina where you can rent a boat slip. Walk to the Lobster House, C-View, Lucky Bones, Mayers Tavern and other restaurants and shops. The deck with a pergola overhead and the rear patio overlooking a beautifully landscaped back yard are yours to enjoy. Plenty of parking on the double width driveway. No doubt that this would make a great investment as a vacation rental property. Or make it all yours.
