Property Description
There's something wonderfully unexpected about this brick one-family home, where original character, generous rooms, and terrific outdoor spaces come together in a way that feels both gracious and completely livable. Exposed brick, antique mantles and newel posts, wide-plank flooring, and beautifully detailed staircases give the home a sense of history, while the layout offers plenty of room to live, work, entertain, and spread out. The ground floor offers a bedroom, full bath, a versatile den/rec room with exposed brick & full-sized laundry, and direct access to the private yard - an ideal extension of the living space for relaxing, gardening, dining outdoors... or just letting the day unfold. Upstairs, the very large eat-in kitchen is a true centerpiece. There is ample room to create a spacious dining area where friends can gather around the table while you cook, making this a kitchen designed as much for entertaining as it is for everyday life. The living room - with custom built-ins - and powder room complete the main floor. The third floor has two bedrooms and a full bath, with a spiral staircase leading to a charming landing and then out to the rooftop terrace, where Manhattan becomes the backdrop. Add a full basement for storage, and you have a home with an unusually generous amount of space - both inside and out - along with the architectural details that give an classic brick house its character. This charming brownstone is perfectly positioned in the heart of Jersey City's vibrant McGinley Square neighborhood; offering comfortable city living with everything you need right outside your door. The Garfield Ave Light Rail stop is a 10 min jaunt. Liberty State Park Light Rail stop takes roughly 20. The Journal Square PATH is less than a mile down the road. Berry Lane Park, Lincoln Park are in either direction, so no excuses for getting outside. You're also flanked by several choice schools including BLMS (Montessori), Primary Prep, LCCS, Saint Peter's University and many solid public school options, locally owned boutique shops, dining, and the exciting new restaurant scene emerging around Bergen Lafayette, Lincoln Park AND Journal Square! Convenient, connected, and an integral part of jc's architectural history - this is a prime opportunity to take advantage of Jersey City and learn her best kept secrets.
