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.

This home was beautifully maintained. Probably one of the cleanest properties we have ever rented. Everything you could possibly need. Super close to the beach and an easy walk to town. We can’t wait to come back. The owners hace made wonderful style choices — and thought of everything to make our stay comfortable and cozy
This home was the perfect spot for a reunion with my college room mates. Kitchen is beautifully appointed. The floors, walls, bathrooms all freshly renovated andsparkling clean and attractively appointed. All of my group reported sleeping very comfortably. One block from the beach and close to great dining options. Hosts are delightful and have thought of everything. Can't wait to come back!
We were a party of ten, in Cape May for a family wedding. The house is beautiful, fitted us comfortably and has everything we needed - and it really is less than five minutes from the stunning beach. There are lots of places to eat well within walking distance but I loved the charming Washington Street Mall, an absolute delight. There’s so much we didn’t have time to do in our week’s holiday we’ll just have to come back !
Very spacious, clean and well stocked house. Perfect location as it is walking distance to beach, restaurants and shopping. I would definitely stay here again.
Gorgeous house, great location! Less than a block from the beach and short walk to the shops and restaurants. Plenty of room for large groups with big front porch for relaxing outside! Host is very accommodating!
Amazing stay at an incredible property rich in history and memories. My kids said multiple times that they felt they were in a scene from a Christmas romcom. The stay could not have been better - we even braved cooking Thanksgiving dinner ina kitchen not our own - and I must say, everything came out splendid! Thanks for being great hosts and sharing your lovely home in our memories.
Wonderful home to stay in, great location just a few houses away from the ocean! Lots of stairs, so it may not work for every group, but for our group of 10 people it was wonderful. Great kitchen, very well designed and equipped, beautiful historical touches left in place throughout the home. Front porch was our very favorite spot, plenty of chairs, great afternoon sunlight. Fantastic!
My family and I had a wonderful stay! The house is beautiful, updated, and clean with great amenities and decor. The porch rockers and hammock were perfect for relaxing. The location is right by the beach and fun restaurants/shopping. Check-in was a breeze and Blair was great with communication. Would definitely stay again! Highly recommend!

Great house wonderful location !
Lovely house which worked out very well for our family vacation including nine adults and two little ones . Close to everything including great bagels , coffee , and of course great places to walk on the promenade and beautiful neighborhoods!
The house was a great place for our family. The kitchen was well supplied while the house kept the Victorian feel. Being so close to the beach is a bonus. We enjoyed sitting on the porch and being able to hear the ocean.
Cannot beat the location, house was steps from the beach and well stocked with beach toys and equipment. We loved the front porch with plenty of seating for the entire family to enjoy the sounds of the ocean. Plenty of space for everyone to spread out throughout the house.
We had an amazing time! Our family went to enjoy the Christmas festivities. The house is perfect for big groups and walking distance to town. Love that they have parking available. The house is beautiful. Highly recommend!

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)
