"Peace of the Sea" is the home that has something for everyone and those extra special quiet places that you can call you own. This stunner has it all and is fully furnished with an in ground pool and then some with a welcoming feel from the moment you arrive. Once upon a time the owners had a dream, to build a custom, one of a kind home to lovingly house a large and growing young family in comfort and style. Well they did just that and then some along with Doortje Fenwick, of Fenwick Architects, who has been working in Cape May for many years, designing beautiful homes. We start outside, one block to the beach, near the center of town, on one of the best surfing beaches. This is where you will find this amazing home at the corner of Stockton and Queen Streets. Wrap around covered porches with water views on the first floor, a screened and enclosed outside living and dining room with gas fired wood fireplace, in ground pool with fenced yard, a two-car garage with a workout/bonus area upstairs is just the start on an almost unheard of 105 x 100 corner lot. Our first floor is understated but dramatic with large thick cut slabs of granite in a kitchen made to cook for a large family, open living space with gas fireplace and entry foyer with custom trim work, finishes and interesting features everywhere. The rear entry foyer has a mudroom for all the kids and grandkids sandals, coats and more, large laundry room, half bath, and a billiard room/game room with work area for those summer projects. A private tv room for movie night behind sliding barn doors is a great for snuggle time. The first-floor master suite rounds out one of the best thought out family friendly homes around. The second floor is warm and welcoming with a sunlit reading nook. The west facing master suite has direct access to the covered second floor deck and stunning views of the ocean and sunset skies. Two hall bedrooms, some with private baths, a full hall bath, another master suite, and a set of steps to the rear of the home for easy access if you need a midnight snack. The third floor, never forgotten, and the dream of every child waiting to have a bedtime story read to them in the grand bedroom where all the kids can gather and camp out in style. The rest of our bedrooms and baths are up here along with a large office with covered deck to the west, comfortable and quiet with reclaimed wood and another amazing view of the beach. We have a total of 8 bedroom, 7 baths, a half bath, many separate areas to relax and or be creative in the quiet comfort of this home. More: Builder M.A.W. Builders, S.J.
