About Lisa
Our family has lived in summer homes at theJersey Shore-- including Ventnor, Atlantic City and Brigantine for five generations. All from the Phildelphia area, we grew up as fishermen and women, card players, paper boys and girls, teen busboys, waitresses and sandwich men. We've had boats and bikes and so many wonderful times at the shore that built family closness and many, many memories. Now during "the year" we live in Randolph NJ, near NYC but go "down the shore" to "the house" whenever we can.
Lisa purchased this house in 1986
Why Lisa chose St. Leonard's Tract
My parents purchased this stately home built in 1921 in 1986 because they just fell in love with its elegance. My mom saw the owner walking down the staircase and wanted to be her! Her husband came to this country some 17 years earlier from Greece and was our kitchen contractor at our Aberdeen house; a decade and change later my Dad bought this home from him. That's America! They loved that it was on the narrowest part of the island, making it 2 blocks from the beach and one house from the bay. It's a corner home which affords access from two different streets. Instead of selling this gorgeous family compound, we renovated, dug in and made it even more comfortable and ready to share with our guests.
What makes this house unique
Our home just lives well. It sprawls over a corner and many people can be there at once you you never exactly see them. A guest house was added on in the 1940's because the grandparents had to raise two young boys. Each of these rooms, affectionately known as the Pink and Green rooms (although not that color anymore) have their own bathroom. An enclosed front yard and patio large enough for dinners and parties is an excellent feature, as well as a second-floor deck off one of the bedrooms., although no deck after dark because it gets too noisy for the neighbors. Nooks and crannies are fun for children. Location, Location on our home too. 10 minutes from Casinos and shops, walk over the Dorset Ave Bridge for ice cream, 30 minutes to Ocean City. Can you tell I'm in love??? :)
