In the Works: A Cottage by the Sea

We occasionally work with developers on a variety of residential or small commercial renovations. Recently, we were asked to help with this speculative house project that one of our developers has lined up in Cape May, NJ. At just under 1500 sf, the house is a quaint “four square” with off-street parking and a nice yard on a quiet residential street, within walking distance to town and the beach.

You can see from the photos that the house has good bones and some nice original features. However, it currently has no heating system, A/C, or hot water, and it needs a lot of cosmetic work, including a good paint job inside and out, a new roof, a new kitchen and main bath, a powder room tune up, and some landscaping. The developer’s goal is to provide overall enhancements and to impart more of a shore-style feel to the home.

More as this project develops — we have some surprises in store!
