Large, sun-drenched condo with an open floor plan that encompasses the entire 3rd floor of historic, 1870s Cape May Painted Lady, with access to our private cupola, (upstairs from inside condo) where you can sit and listen to the ocean waves and watch the sunsets behind the Cape May Lighthouse. Property includes one-deeded off-street parking space and use of 3 spaces shared by owners of the condo association. Property has successful 22-year rental history and is being sold furnished. The primary bedroom has a king bed, two antique dressers, a closet and a full, private tiled bathroom with a tub and shower. The larger, second bedroom has two over-sized twin beds and bunk-beds, an antique dresser, and a large closet. The second full bathroom with tub and shower is steps away. There are 17 windows in our condo to view Cape May in all directions, capture the glorious sunshine and bring you those cool, cool Cape May breezes. This is the only condo in the building with central air conditioning and (gas) heating. The living room is furnished with a Natuzzi leather sleeper sofa, two matched, overstuffed cuddle chairs with pillows and an ottoman, and a third, upholstered chair. The kitchen includes a refrigerator with ice maker, electric range, microwave, dishwasher, and an oversize sink with disposal. There are four barstools at the island and the dining table is just off the kitchen. The condo is a short walk to the beach, Congress Hall, and the historic Washington Street Mall. You are within walking distance of nearly all the best Cape May has to offer. The association provides a bike rack, a shared grill and coin-operated washing and dryer. There's an outdoor clothesline and two enclosed outdoor showers. The Belvedere is on a shady, tree-lined street in Cape May's primary historic district. Built-in 1871, this Italianate and bracketed-style villa is one of the original and grand, historic Cape May summer cottages built by renowned architect Stephen Decatur Button.
