The Cape Cottage
Enjoy single-story living at its finest. With three bedrooms and 2400 square feet plus porches and garage, this home has plenty of room and something for everyone. The classically styled exterior draws its inspiration from the seashore homes of Avalon and the rich tradition of Craftsman architecture. Complete with a stone chimney, wrap-around porch, and flower boxes, the exterior is lush with curb appeal.
Stepping through the front entryway and into the foyer, complete with coat closet, you are greeted with a long view through the main living area and continuing through the rear windows. The heart of this home is its large open living area. Gathering light from the dormer above, this area incorporates a great room with built-in book cases, a large kitchen with an island made for conversation, a wet bar/buffet with additional counter and cabinet space and dinning area leading to a screened in porch. This open plan is ideal for both quiet evenings with the family and large gatherings of friends that are welcome occurrences living at the shore.
Flanking one side of the living area and separated from the other bedrooms is the master suite. Through a recessed doorway bordered by built-in book cases, a unique vestibule area brings you to the master suite allowing access to separate his and her walk-in closets, a large bedroom with a sliding patio door, and a master bath with compartmented toilet and a walk-in tiled shower. Sharing this side of the house just off the foyer, is a versatile room that is ideal for a home office, den or additional guest room as needed. On the opposite side of the home are two generous guest rooms which share a full bath. Also a large laundry and mudroom lead to the oversized two car garage. Should you need even more space there is an optional plan that converts the large screened in porch into a family room and increases the square footage to 2675.
With a modern and well designed plan, this home is a perfect blend of cottage charm and functional luxury.
