411 Cambridge, Cape May Point

This unique historic Point Schoolhouse was built for the Point community in 1881. It served as a grade school for all children until 1931. Currently a private residence, it has retained many of the original historic features and special touches such as high ceilings, many large windows and hardwood floors. Modern additions were made, such as two zone central air, unique updated kitchen with marble and also 3 large baths, as well as many cedar closets. Storage areas abound, together with a huge full size attic with pull down stairs. Newer gas hot water baseboard heating system updates and improve year round enjoyment of this historic property. It is an upside down design and the second floor great room is truly breathtaking! Light is in abundance on both floors due to the updated large windows. There are two large open porches, one on each floor and a gracious master suite overlooking the backyard. The two guest bedrooms open to a lovely sitting area with a fireplace that adjoins the first floor porch. This sitting area could be converted to an additional first floor bedroom. Only a very few historic homes remain at the Point, however, this is the one and only schoolhouse. It offers a unique opportunity to purchase and own a one of a kind home, in a highly treasured and almost unheard of shore hamlet. It is located on a lovely quiet street within one block to Lake Lily, a short walk to St Pete's beach and the Circle, a picturesque park is at the corner....just a few houses away. This year round home also features the amazingly low taxes that CMP homeowners enjoy!
