In the game of Monopoly, the most desirable real estate in all Atlantic City is the Boardwalk.
Or, as with Marvin Gardens, maybe the game’s creator didn’t have Atlantic City’s Boardwalk in mind. Perhaps he was thinking of the stretch that runs through Ventnor’s St. Leonard’s Tract, home to a slew of swanky homes.

6003 Boardwalk in the 1920s
One of those homes is this huge Tudor facing the waves. Built in 1920, it got a total makeover a while back that dramatically transformed its interior and lightened both the inside and the outside.
Inside, the effect of the transformations is to make you feel like you’re embarking on a voyage on a luxury ocean liner, only with bigger windows.

Living room
Make that two ocean liners. Somewhere between the living room and the kitchen, someone — the owner? the designer? — decided to change the setting from the RMS Titanic to the SS United States.

Dining room
The expansive living room just past the front porch, the media room to its right and the dining room are done up in leaded glass windows and Edwardian trim. But even in these rooms — check out the living-room fireplace or the dining-room chandeliers, for instance — one can pick up a hint of the wrinkle in time to come.

Kitchen and breakfast room
You pass through that time warp when you step into the sleek Moderne kitchen, full of sinuous curves and smooth blond wood.

Master bedroom
The 1940s also rule in the spacious master bedroom, which spans the entire front of the second floor. Large French doors in its center open onto a private balcony atop the welcoming front porch. From here, you can take in the sweep of the beach and ocean right across the Boardwalk from you.

Master bathroom
The marble-clad master bathroom continues the streamlined theme. The other bedroom on this floor and four en suite bedrooms one floor up have simpler design but the same Moderne furnishings for the most part.

Front porch and pool
Of course, you get great views without having to go inside by just sitting on its front porch. Or you can relax by the pool in front of it.
And in addition, there’s a skylit loft above the third floor that could serve as a den, home office, studio or even seventh bedroom.

Basement media room and bar
Finally, down below, the basement contains a two-car garage accessed through a hallway decorated with Shore murals and a second media room with a full bar.

Rear elevation and garage
With all of this, who needs a beach?
