Lovely & Steps to Finest Beach. Center of Cape May. Multi-Car Private Driveway!

17 Jefferson St.: This beautiful 6 Bedroom and 3 Bathroom (4 in summer), Victorian era home is just 4 houses from Cape May’s finest family beach and a short walk to its best shops and restaurants. When not at the beach, you will be enjoying the home’s large porch with its seven rockers, full hammock, and big views of the ocean. The house sleeps up to 15 and has a driveway with off-street parking for 4-5 cars (!)

We bought the house in Spring 2010 and have invested heavily in renovations and new furniture to make this a superb rental - over $600,000 to date. Virtually every area of the house has been renewed, inside and out. In October 2023, we bought all new living room furniture, including new leather recliners (tasteful). During winter 2024, we rebuilt the front deck, replaced the master's windows, refinished nearly all the floors, and rebuilt the floor of the outside shower. Despite all the changes, our goal is always to keep the 1890 look and feel of the house.

At the same time, we've tried to make the house as comfortable for our guest as possible. The kitchen is well stocked. The game, puzzle, library is also well stocked. There are quality TVs (3), high-speed mesh wifi for streaming, blu-ray DVD players (with a nice library of DVDs) and cable package. There's a Bose bluetooth speaker in the living room and master for music. We keep lots beach chairs, umbrellas, and beach toys for all to use.

Guests will need to bring sheets, pillow cases, towels, and beach towels for their visit. There is a good linen service in town (Sea Dreams), if this is more convenient.

Cape May Christmas Parade Weekend

My family and I came down to Cape May this year for the tree lighting and Christmas parade and we could not have been happier with our stay here. The house was big enough to accommodate 9 adults and 4 small children and was simply beautiful inside. Very tasteful and clean, I cannot say enough about how much we enjoyed staying here!

We had a wonderful family vacation in this beautiful home with our children and grandchildren. It is in a perfect location to walk to the beach or into town. The front porch and rockers were used daily. The owner was quick to respond to any questions or provide information. I highly recommend staying at this home.

Amazing home

We had a wonderful stay with our children and grandchildren in this beautiful vacation home. It’s just steps to the beach and we were able to easily walk to Washington Mall for shopping and restaurants. We spent every night sitting on the rockers on the front porch. The house was very clean and nicely decorated. The kitchen is fully stocked. I would highly recommend staying here.

Great location for a fun family stay!

Cannot beat the location, house was steps from the beach and well stocked with beach toys and equipment. We loved the front porch with plenty of seating for the entire family to enjoy the sounds of the ocean. Plenty of space for everyone to spread out throughout the house.

Beautiful and cozy

We had a great stay. The house was beautiful and clean and was a short walk to Washington street. The kitchen was well stocked with all the dishes we needed and we had plenty of space for a large group to eat together and hang out in the living room. The house has a warm cozy feeling and wasn’t drafty for our December trip. Would love to stay here again!
