911 Washington Street, Cape May

This American Four Square (circa 1920) located in the middle of Washington Street, is just three blocks from the shops and restaurants on the Washington Street Mall – and five blocks to the beach. The pleasant front porch has the best views of the comings and goings of Washington Street and at times, a horse and carriage coming down the block. The porch is cool all summer from the shade of the large tree at the front of the property – a great place for enjoying breakfast and lunch – and relaxing after the beach. The first floor has a formal living room, a dining room with French doors, a kitchen with stainless appliances, and a full bath with a clawfoot tub and hand milled wood wainscoting. There is also a “reading room” with a door leading to a small side porch that is ideal for an early morning coffee or afternoon tea. The original chestnut staircase in the front hall leads up to the second floor that has three bedrooms – one with a small deck – and a renovated bath. In addition, there is a small room off the master bedroom that is presently used as an office. The third floor has two large rooms that could be additional bedrooms. There are hardwood floors throughout with the exception of the reading room and two of the bedrooms that are carpeted; the kitchen with vinyl flooring; and both bathrooms that have ceramic tile. At the back of the property there is a three story building that was constructed in 2000 replacing the original built in the 1920’s. It has been used as a rental property and has been booked weekly each season from May thru September, and many weekends offseason. The ground level has a garage, storage and laundry areas. The living quarters are entered by a staircase to the left of the building. There is an enclosed outdoor shower behind these stairs. The first level of the living quarters has a living room, dining room, kitchen and a screened porch. The second level of the living quarters has two bedrooms and a full bath. It has gas heat and central a/c. This building is being sold furnished except for a few personal items. "seller is a licensed NJ realtor"
