Description

Welcome to 1143 Lafayette Street in Cape May. This charming single-family home features three bedrooms and two and a half baths, exemplifying coastal living. Lafayette Street is one of Cape May’s most recognized thoroughfares, providing convenient access to downtown, beaches, restaurants, marinas, and year-round amenities. The open floor plan on the main level showcases a gourmet kitchen equipped with upgraded appliances and an expansive island, perfect for entertaining. Step outside to the patio, ideal for summer barbecues, and enjoy the enclosed outdoor shower allowing you to rinse off after a day at the beach. The additional grass side yard is ideal for family pets or family games, providing a generous space for both play and relaxation. It's fenced for safety, ensuring peace of mind while children or pets roam freely. The area is also versatile enough to accommodate a small garden, allowing you to cultivate your favorite flowers or herbs, adding a personal touch to your outdoor oasis. A mix of sunshine and shade makes it a pleasant spot for enjoying the outdoors throughout the day. Adjacent to the kitchen, a staircase leads to a partially finished basement, currently utilized as an entertainment space, along with an additional storage room. All three bedrooms are situated on the second floor. The primary suite boasts a private balcony with floor-to-ceiling retractable screens and a stunning dual-sink ensuite featuring a custom shower. The other two bedrooms are equally inviting, each designed with ample closet space and large windows that let in plenty of natural light. A full bathroom with modern fixtures serves these bedrooms, ensuring comfort and convenience for family members or guests. Outside, the beautifully landscaped yard offers a tranquil retreat with lush greenery and flowering plants. The property includes an attached garage for parking and storage, as well as a driveway that can accommodate additional vehicles. This beautiful home on Lafayette Street is perfect for those seeking a blend of coastal charm and modern luxury, making it a true gem in the heart of Cape May. Whether you’re looking for a permanent residence or a vacation escape, this property presents an exceptional opportunity to enjoy the best of seaside living. Recent updates include new exterior siding and doors as well as new HVAC system.
