A rare offering on Cape May Island, this extraordinary waterfront estate blends modern coastal architecture with complete privacy and natural beauty. Set on 1.02 secluded acres along the canal, this custom-built home is quietly surrounded by protected forest while remaining just minutes from Cape May’s celebrated restaurants, shops, and beaches. Completed in 2023, the residence was thoughtfully designed to capture light, views, and connection to the outdoors. Oversized windows frame sweeping canal and forest views from nearly every room, while expansive decks provide the perfect vantage point to watch boats glide by or enjoy peaceful evenings immersed in nature. Inside, the home offers 4,584 square feet of refined living space with 11-foot ceilings throughout the first floor and a dramatic vaulted great room featuring a loft and architectural catwalk. A striking masonry fireplace with custom white oak millwork anchors the living space, creating a warm and elegant focal point. The chef’s kitchen was designed for both entertaining and everyday living, featuring high-end appliances, an oversized 12-foot island, and a walk-in butler’s pantry, flowing seamlessly into a dining area highlighted by a custom white oak dining table crafted specifically for the space. A 12-foot sliding glass door opens to the outdoor deck and patio, creating a seamless indoor–outdoor living experience ideal for entertaining. The home includes five bedrooms, four bathrooms, and two flexible living spaces currently used as a playroom and private sitting room/office, offering versatility for hosting guests or working remotely. A rare feature in Cape May: space, versatility, and acreage. This 1.02-acre estate delivers 4,584 sq. ft. of polished living space and a grand total of 11,178 sq. ft. under roof. Whether you need the 9’ ceilings of the massive 2,415 sq. ft. basement, the 625 sq. ft. vaulted garage for your collection, or the incredible 3,000 sq. ft. of usable attic space, this home adapts to your grandest lifestyle. Relax on 554 sq. ft. of covered porches and take in the view. Highlights include a fully equipped gym; a custom-built cedar sauna with an oversized electric heater and 180-pound rock capacity; and a large children’s play area with a climbing wall and play structures, along with extensive storage. Additional features include: • 2.5-car garage with vaulted ceilings • Dual laundry rooms • 554 sq ft of decks and porches overlooking the water • Direct canal access • Large horseshoe driveway with ample parking • Solar panels, a wood-burning furnace, a well, and a septic system for enhanced sustainability and self-sufficiency.
