Cross the threshold of this thirty-room Colonial Revival style house with expertly carved chestnut woodwork and many stained-glass windows.  The most previous owners ran the Humphrey Hughes Inn for 31 years before retiring in 2018.  After a 17-year hiatus, the property returned to Cape May MAC’s Candlelight Tours in 2019.  Expect to see this family vacation home festively decorated, including a wonderful tree. Enjoy the stunning staircase and many other lovely touches. The property was named after one of the original European colonizers of Cape May County, and the classy exterior iron fence pre-dates the house itself.
