Property Description
Offering a remarkable sense of size and scale in one of Jersey City's most dynamic emerging neighborhoods, this exceptional 1,450-square-foot, 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom top-floor residence is uniquely positioned moments from the Journal Square Arts District and less than 10 minutes from the Journal Square PATH. Generous proportions, soaring ceilings and abundant natural light define the home, while an extraordinary 830-square-foot private roof deck and deeded garage parking create a combination rarely found in Journal Square. At the heart of the home, an oversized living room makes an immediate impression with ceilings reaching just under 12 feet and enormous northeast-facing windows that flood the space with natural light. The expansive living space is accented by custom real-walnut paneling, while white oak hardwood floors, 7-foot solid doors and oversized Pella casement windows further elevate the home. The European-style kitchen features high-gloss cabinetry, waterfall quartz countertops, a large center island with seating, five-burner gas range, vented hood and stainless steel appliances. The primary suite offers an expansive walk-in closet, en-suite bath with dual rain showers and its own private balcony. Thoughtfully integrated smart-home features include motorized blinds, smart appliances, app-controlled central heating and air, Ring doorbell security, remote-access cameras and built-in speakers throughout the home and roof deck. In-unit Samsung washer and dryer complete the interior. Upstairs, the expansive 830-square-foot private roof deck offers neighborhood and sunset views, built-in speakers, and dedicated gas and water hookups for a future outdoor kitchen and grilling setup-an incredible extension of the living space. A shared garage with 1-car deeded parking and ample additional storage, plus a second parking space in the driveway, adds exceptional convenience and increasingly rare value. Set on a quiet residential street, the home is moments from transit, shopping, dining and Journal Square's rapidly expanding collection of neighborhood amenities. The emerging Journal Square Arts District-an evolving cultural and economic hub anchored by a dedicated Cultural Arts Special Improvement District (SID)-is just moments away, with Mana Contemporary and Parlay Studios contributing to the neighborhood's thriving creative scene. Neighborhood favorites Unnamed Coffee and modcup add to a growing café culture, while the restaurants and markets of India Square bring another layer of rich cultural character. At the center of it all, the beautifully restored Loew's Jersey Theatre is set to reopen in Fall 2026, ushering in an exciting new era for arts, culture and entertainment in Journal Square. Pershing Field and Lincoln Park provide nearby green space and recreation. With significant development and investment transforming Journal Square, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy extraordinary space, private outdoor living and parking-with a front-row seat to one of Jersey City's most exciting next chapters.
