This is an opportunity to purchase a large corner lot in Cape May County, close to area beaches and community amenities. The lot offers high visibility on Route 47 and in the Town of Cape May Court House. According to the tax report, the lot offers approximately 206 ft of frontage on Route 47 and 168 ft of depth. Located on the property is an uninhabitable 1850s two-story farmhouse. The second story roof and chimney have collapsed into the first floor, and Middle Township has designated it as unsafe. The existing structure would need to be demolished, and the lot cleared of all natural overgrowth for any future new build to take place. The property is being sold strictly as is. The buyer is responsible for any and all state and municipal certifications, inspections, and permits at the buyer's sole expense. The property is currently serviced by a cesspool and a well, both of which are non-functional. The seller makes no expressed or implied warranties as to the condition of the property. The lot size is 0.79 acres. According to the Middle Township Construction office, the township requires a minimum of one acre for a septic system. This lot would be considered undersized for a septic system install, and a buyer would need to submit a variance to the township to install a septic system for future construction of a new home. The lot itself is buildable once the existing structure is demolished and a variance is submitted and approved. However, if the existing foundation is used, a new home can be built on it, and no variance is needed.
