About this home

Grand French Second Empire Style home with modern amenities (including central air) and gracious wrap-around verandah is located in Cape May’s Primary Historic District and is within walking distance to the Washington Street Mall and the beach as well as to West Cape May’s shops and restaurants. Formerly known as the Barnard Good House, it was once run as a Bed & Breakfast but has been a single family home for the last decade. This spacious home offers six bedrooms, six bathrooms, a formal living room and dining room, and a large eat-in kitchen with tin ceiling and Viking range. There are some fine antique pieces throughout the home and a most unique vintage zinc-coated copper tub in the third floor bathroom. Ample parking for six cars. This home is perfect for a large family and entertaining, but if you’re looking for an investment property with rental potential, this would also fit your needs.
