For sale: New construction in Cape May for $1.495 million
The phrase "new construction" could sound like a warning bell in Cape May, where design is taken very seriously and Victorian architecture is revered. But this custom-built home is hardly a McMansion by the Bay, and seems to fit incongruously on New Jersey Avenue.
In addition to its low profile by Philadelphia Beach, this home has something else going for it: the furnishings come with the keys. The property was furnished and decorated by Fenwick, and finishes remind you you're at the beach without hitting you over the head with buoys.
Inside, the 2,112-square-foot-home includes three full baths and a powder room – including two en-suite bedrooms. Bamboo hardwood flooring connects the open-concept living room, dining room and kitchen. The kitchen itself features a Bosch five-burner gas range and the usual high-end stainless steel appliances and granite counter tops.
Four bedrooms upstairs are carpeted and furnished to sleep five. Custom-tiled bathrooms include walk-in showers and a master suite with tub. The second floor is accessible by staircase and by elevator.
Ocean views are on offer from the covered deck upstairs as well as the ground-level porch adjacent to the outdoor bathroom.
Outside, new cement fiber siding promises maintenance-free living and a detached two-car garage should protect your whip from the salty air. Even the professionaly landscaped lawn requires minimal maintenance: the property comes with its own custom irrigation system.
The property is listed by James Hanson at Coldwell Banker Sol Needles Real Estate for $1,495,000.
