Property Description
208 5th Street is a 20 foot wide townhouse that offers five bedrooms, three and one half bathrooms over four full floors of living, located in one of Hoboken's most unique and desirable areas, directly across from Church Square Park in midtown Hoboken. This large historic townhome has been completely gut renovated and extended and provides a thoughtfully designed layout with both formal and casual entertaining areas. The architect and designer have retained all the wonderful aspects of historic brownstone architecture and incorporated expert craftsmanship with a stunning design that perfectly blends modern and classic styles that will delight even the most sophisticated townhome buyer. No detail has been overlooked in the renovation of this stunning home. Entering the parlor floor through double doors and built-in mudroom you are struck by the open floor plan and the abundance of light that streams through the home from its southern exposure. The center of the home is anchored by a custom chef's kitchen with cabinets by custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, Wolf stove, Miele wall ovens, Subzero Fridge, Fischer Paykel dishwasher and wine fridge. The dining room features original exposed brick and floor to ceiling windows and the large living area has gorgeous coffered ceiling with a lovely gas fireplace flanked by custom built-in bookcases and storage. The exceptional layout is perfect for entertaining and enables a seamless flow from the kitchen to living room while also providing access to the back garden through oversized glass sliding doors. The second floor is reached from the completely re-built white oak staircase with custom paneling that leads to a large primary bedroom with custom built-ins, a large walk-in closet with custom cabinetry, and en-suite five piece bathroom finished with natural stone tile, unique Zellige subway tile over custom double vanity with restoration hardware fixtures, a large soaking tub and custom framed glass shower, linen closet and heated floors. On the second floor you will also find a separate bedroom, and a full laundry room with oversized Electrolux washer/dryer. The third floor has three more bedrooms and two well-appointed bathrooms with one en-suite. The garden level is perfect for movie night with a large wide open family/TV room with access to the garden, a wall of custom cabinetry, wet bar, a refrigerator, and another playroom with even more storage/cabinetry. The professionally landscaped garden patio can be accessed from either the parlor floor or the garden level and includes a built-in BBQ with dedicated gas line and refrigerator, Ipe fencing, bluestone paving, artificial grass and dedicated planters. Other features include recessed and custom lighting, built-in speakers throughout with several zones of Sonos. Other notable features are Marvin windows throughout, white oak floors, high velocity HVAC, Cat 6 wiring, Hunter Douglas custom remote window treatments and smart switches. This home stands out for its central location-an easy walk to the PATH, 5th Street bus stop, and both elementary and middle schools are just a short distance. It's incredibly convenient for commuting and everyday life. Being directly across from the park provides open, unobstructed views and added privacy. One of the quietest streets in Hoboken, with no through traffic from Park Avenue and relatively easy parking while being close to NJ Transit for access to Path and Manhattan's Port Authority bus terminal.
