Property Description
Character and opportunity meet on this tree-lined Hamilton Park block. Set behind a classic wrought-iron stoop, this brick rowhouse offers the kind of original facade with historic masonry, and decades of street presence, that simply can't be recreated. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath home is being offered as a project house, a rare chance to add real value in one of Jersey City's most walkable downtown neighborhoods. Recent mechanical updates give a head start: the furnace and water heater were both replaced within the last two years, a new water line was installed in 2026, and the sewer line is PVC. Located just steps from Hamilton Park's lush green space, tennis courts, playgrounds, dog parks, and seasonal farmers market, you'll also enjoy being a block from the charming Pavonia Branch Library and near a wide range of neighborhood restaurants and bars like Hamilton Inn, White Star, Rumba Cubana, Chickies, and more. With easy access to the Newport and Grove Street PATH stations and Light Rail, your commute into Manhattan couldn't be easier. This home is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Jersey City history in one of the city's most vibrant and walkable communities.
