Property Description

What makes Cape May, Cape May? Does a 1931 home, meticulously renovated and set along a tree lined street surrounded by historic charm and Victorian architecture, match what you pictured? If so, drop what you are doing. 1135 Washington Street is the opportunity you have been waiting for. This thoughtfully restored home has all the hard work done for you, blending the character newer homes often lack with modern design and convenience. From premium hand split cedar shake siding to an inviting enclosed porch with preserved original wood windows, the curb appeal is undeniable. You will immediately appreciate the private three-vehicle driveway, a coveted asset in the City of Cape May where off-street parking is frequently nonexistent. An archway leads past an enclosed outdoor shower to a private backyard, providing a sunny lawn and a broad, tree shaded patio ideal for gatherings. The smart layout provides maximum use of the 34 by 117 foot lot. Step inside to an enclosed porch sitting area that seamlessly transitions into a formal sitting room. Past this space, a formal dining room sits adjacent to a tastefully updated full bathroom with designer finishes and a stacked laundry closet. At the heart of the main level, an updated kitchen with a prep island flows into an expansive second living room. Featuring vaulted ceilings, abundant natural light, and a cozy wood burning fireplace, it is easy to imagine taking in Cape May's holiday ambience and sitting by the fire after a late autumn stroll. A screened in porch completes this level with direct access to the backyard. The staircase stands out as a distinct architectural highlight, bringing warmth to the main living area as it leads upstairs. The second floor offers three bedrooms and a deceptively spacious full bathroom featuring built in linen shelving and a large walk in shower. The layout includes a central room at the landing, a rear bedroom, and a bedroom spanning the front of the home with dual closets and views of historic Washington Street. What appears to be a standard closet door in the first-floor bathroom opens to a standout feature: a full, exceptionally clean basement. Completely overhauled by the current owner, this space houses the home's mechanical systems, including the HVAC furnace, on demand tankless water heater, and security system. It also offers dedicated front storage with interior and exterior hatch access, as well as a convenient walk-out exterior door leading to the side driveway. Offering approximately 1,741 square feet of living space, three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, a pristine basement, and rare off-street parking, this move in ready home has every major system and surface updated. Located a short stroll from the Emlen Physick Estate and Kiwanis Community Park, 1135 Washington Street puts the very best of Cape May within reach. The approximate 1,741 square feet total comes from a Matterport Pro3 scan and differs from the public tax record value of 1,676 sq. ft.
