Property Description

Dont miss this opportunity to own a piece of Cape May history. Currently operated as the Captain Mey's Inn, this turn of the century Victorian home, circa 1890 was built by Dr. Walter Phillips. The corner location just steps to both the mall and beaches of Cape May make this the best location to enjoy all that the wonderful town has to offer.
