Property Description
Rarely available and truly one-of-a-kind, this Jersey City home brings together 1880s brownstone character, artistic history, incredible light, and beautifully considered modern updates. This spacious, top-floor one-bedroom apartment is set within an intimate three-unit Jersey Avenue brownstone and offers a rare combination of scale, character, and personality. The spacious living area features soaring 12-foot ceilings, a skylight, 6 large windows, beautiful stained-glass details, abundant natural light, NYC views, and spectacular nightly sunsets. The generous layout provides plenty of room for a comfortable living space, eat in kitchen, dedicated dining area and/or a work-from-home setup. The brand-new renovated kitchen features sparkling white cabinetry and a fresh, modern aesthetic while complementing the character of the home. The bathroom has also just been thoughtfully renovated, with custom cabinetry and smart built-in storage designed to accommodate all of your products and linens. Additional features include a large cedar-lined deep closet, dishwasher, and a dedicated washer and dryer conveniently located on the same floor. The building is exceptionally dog-friendly! For those who need dedicated parking, parking is available just a few blocks away at Newport Mall. The building itself is truly special. This 1880s brownstone was the original home of the "Zombie Opera," performed from the balcony at the front of the building, and the balcony incorporates elements from Andy Warhol's former Squat Theatre in NYC. The result is a home with an incredible sense of history, personality, and artistic character that is rarely found in Jersey City. Ideally located near Hamilton Park, farmers markets, excellent restaurants, neighborhood shops, and convenient transportation for an easy commute into NYC. Rarely available, this is a rental you'll want to see in person. Come take a look before this special home is spoken for.
