Unique opportunity to own this Edwardian-era Seaside Mansion on Historic Jackson Street in Cape May! The property consists of the main house, a garden apartment and a detached two car garage. Built during a period when rooms were large, spacious and airy, the main house offers three levels, with 7 bedrooms, 7.5 baths. There is no shortage of outdoor living space with three distinct spaces - a wraparound front porch, a second floor porch which is private to two bedrooms, and a third floor sundeck with spectacular ocean views. The first floor features a grand living room and gracious family room, along with the fully renovated kitchen. No expense was spared in the kitchen, which features Small Bone kitchen cabinets, double oven, steam oven, built-in coffee maker and wine refrigerator. Off the kitchen is a cozy breakfast nook. For more formal meals there is a dedicated dining room with gas fireplace. Also located on the first floor is an ensuite bedroom and powder room. The grand staircase leads to the second floor where you will find the ensuite primary bedroom with fully renovated bathroom and three additional ensuite bedrooms and laundry room. Accessible from the front two bedrooms is a large deck overlooking Jackson Street. The third floor offers two more ensuite bedrooms and a rear deck with beautiful ocean views. The Garden Level has a spacious apartment, currently one bedroom but easily convertible to two or three bedrooms, with separate exterior access and rear patio. There is an oversized utility room with two sets of washers and dryers, extra refrigerator/freezer space, plenty of workspace and storage, plus an additional art room. The property boasts plenty of parking, a premium on Jackson Street, with 2 driveways easily accommodating 8-10 cars. Extensive upgrades for today’s standards while carefully maintaining the historical character have been done. The highlights of the improvements include new plumbing, including water/sewer lines, new electric, new blown in insulation, new boiler and hot water heater, new mini-splits for AC, new concrete drives and sidewalks, and exterior paint just 2.5 years ago. This is truly a masterpiece and must be seen to be fully appreciated. Shown by appointment only.
