The property is being sold in “as is: condition. As you approach the home, an enclosed front sitting porch welcomes you with views of Lafayette Street, the elementary school, and Wise-Anderson Park, formerly known as Lafayette Street Park, which is a 38-acre public park located along Lafayette Street. Step inside to discover a formal dining and living space that open to the side deck. Toward the rear of the first floor is the kitchen and a former bathroom where renovations were started but not completed. Upstairs, you'll find three bedrooms and a full hallway bathroom. Additional features include hot water baseboard heating, a basement, an attached side deck, off-street parking for multiple vehicles, and a grassy yard offering plenty of possibilities for outdoor entertaining, gardening, or simply enjoying the coastal air. Please note that the driveway and parking area are subject to an easement providing access to the two rear condominium units. Location, location, location! Enjoy the convenience of living within walking distance of Cape May's beloved Washington Street Mall, fabulous restaurants, boutique shopping, parks, tennis courts, and the historic Emlen Physick Estate. The beautiful beaches of Cape May are also just a short stroll away. Whether you're envisioning a year-round residence, a coastal getaway, or a historic restoration project, this property offers an opportunity to bring new life to a piece of Cape May's architectural heritage. 914 and 916 Lafayette Street are being offered separately.
