Walk or bike to beaches, shopping, dining, entertainment and all that Cape May has to offer from 505 Jefferson Street.

Later, enjoy a cocktail as horses and carriages clip-clop past. This 1926 Craftsman-style property features a spacious living room with refinished hardwood floors, two seating areas and a working fireplace topped with a white wooden mantle. The living room flows into the dining room through a 5-foot-wide archway, allowing easy conversations and open sight-lines between the rooms. The dining room includes built-ins for china and glassware. Decorative windows in the living room and dining room add to the beauty of this light-filled property.

The laundry room includes a deep sink, washer and new dryer, leading out to the large back yard which provides a secluded spot for entertaining or sunbathing. The automated sprinkler system keeps the grass green - you don’t have to lift a finger. An attached shed accommodates bikes and a grill. An outside shower keeps the sand out of the house after a beach day. Owned by the same family for 70 years, this home has been well-loved and maintained. The many updates include roof, windows, gas heating and drainage systems. New rain gutters have been ordered and the warranty is transferable to the new owners.
