About this property
Lovely & Steps to Finest Beach. Center of Cape May. Multi-Car Private Driveway!
17 Jefferson St.: This beautiful 6 Bedroom and 3 Bathroom (4 in summer), Victorian era home is just 4 houses from Cape May’s finest family beach and a short walk to its best shops and restaurants. When not at the beach, you will be enjoying the home’s large porch with its seven rockers, full hammock, and big views of the ocean. The house sleeps up to 15 and has a driveway with off-street parking for 4-5 cars (!)
We bought the house in Spring 2010 and have invested heavily in renovations and new furniture to make this a superb rental - over $600,000 to date. Virtually every area of the house has been renewed, inside and out. In October 2023, we bought all new living room furniture, including new leather recliners (tasteful). During winter 2024, we rebuilt the front deck, replaced the master's windows, refinished nearly all the floors, and rebuilt the floor of the outside shower. Despite all the changes, our goal is always to keep the 1890 look and feel of the house.
At the same time, we've tried to make the house as comfortable for our guest as possible. The kitchen is well stocked. The game, puzzle, library is also well stocked. There are quality TVs (3), high-speed mesh wifi for streaming, blu-ray DVD players (with a nice library of DVDs) and cable package. There's a Bose bluetooth speaker in the living room and master for music. We keep lots beach chairs, umbrellas, and beach toys for all to use.
Guests will need to bring sheets, pillow cases, towels, and beach towels for their visit. There is a good linen service in town (Sea Dreams), if this is more convenient.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Blair Pomeroy
We bought the house while living in Geneva, Switzerland, so you will notice little Swiss/French things throughout the house. We now split time between Pittsburgh (Blair's hometown) and St. Petersburg, FL (near our daughter)
Why they chose this property
Just a great location seconds from the beach and an easy walk into town. Guests love the front porch with its ocean views and breezes. It's a big one! The house has huge character - but has all the amenities guest demand. Lots of free parking too.
What makes this property unique
Wide ocean views from front porch, master bedroom, and family suite
Few places have their own long driveway this close to the beach!
Lots of 1890 character (without the dust and smell of old houses). We spend heaps of money to keep it nice (and safe)
