About This Home
Cape May Harbor Village and Yacht Club is a distinctive waterfront community featuring a private 2-acre park, tennis/pickleball court, and a marina where each homeowner owns a 35' boat slip for personal use or rental. The association maintains the expansive common courtyard, boathouse with bathroom facilities, marina, park, and courts, as well as individual lawn care, including grass cutting, edging, and trimming. Welcome to this beautifully designed, custom three-story upside-down home—crafted to highlight sweeping harbor views and provide effortless access to both the marina and the nearby harbor beach. The residence offers four bedrooms, two flexible bonus rooms plus an office, three full bathrooms, a half bath, and generous indoor and outdoor living areas suited for year-round enjoyment.

This floor includes a den with deck access, three bedrooms, two full bathrooms—both with tiled showers and one with a tub—ample closets throughout, and a large laundry room. Second Floor: The main level opens to a dramatic great room with cathedral ceilings, abundant natural light, and sweeping water views.
