About the host

Why they chose this property

We purchased this property to allow our family to come and vacation in Cape May. Over the years family and friends have gathered to enjoy visiting with each other in beautiful Cape May.
We have discovered some of the history of the house. The house was built by Jeremiah E. and Rachel Mecray in 1907. Jeremiah owned and sub-divided the entire block which is bordered by Benton Avenue, Franklin Street, Sewell Avenue and Jefferson Street.
The entire parcel of land cost $4250 in the early 1900s! This house seems to be one of the first that was built on the block. As you travel around the block you may notice several that have a similar style of architecture.
