Cape May, New Jersey

Enjoy oceanfront views from this impressive property located in the nation’s oldest seaside resort.

With the Atlantic Ocean as the front yard, this stunning Craftsman-style ‘Bungalow’ is currently operating as a successful Bed and Breakfast Inn but could easily be used as a single family home.

As soon as you step into the sunlight filled porch at the Rhythm of the Sea, you will be captivated. The glass enclosed, recessed porch with unobstructed ocean views, brings you directly into the expansive grand salon which is large enough to accommodate a full size billiard table and several seating arrangements. The adjoining dining room flows on through a pair of pocket doors. From the back of the dining room a swing door takes you into the large, commercial kitchen, fully equipped for the gourmet chef, right down to the walk-in cooler.

The first floor offers a powder room and the ‘butler’s pantry’, which is now used as an office. The back staircase leads up to a private suite of rooms set apart from the main hall. The wide, sturdy staircase from the grand salon takes you to a central hall with seven guest rooms, all with private bathrooms. Most rooms enjoy wonderful ocean vistas, several have gas fireplaces and one even has a private balcony overlooking the beach.

In keeping with its Arts and Crafts Movement aesthetic, the entire house is decorated with L. & J.G. Stickley mission oak furniture. The third floor is a full walk-up attic with more breathtaking views and ample storage. There is a full basement which houses the laundry facility with two washers and two dryers and even more storage space.

The detached Carriage House is a two-car garage with a second floor suite containing a living room with wet bar, a spacious bedroom with vaulted ceiling, both with ocean views, and an upgraded bathroom and central air. The driveway is brick paved and there is parking for 12 cars. The low maintenance landscaping is tastefully done and compliments the simplicity of this grand home.
