Description
Experience the grandeur of this rare, newly renovated Queen Anne–style Victorian with porch, set on an oversized lot on one of Jersey City Heights’ most picturesque blocks. This expansive 7-bedroom, 4.5-bath pre-war home blends original charm with modern functionality, exceptional scale, and rare parking. Original hardwood doors and trim welcome you into a space filled with timeless detail, including refinished parquet inlay floors, crown molding, 11’ ceilings, and preserved pocket doors connecting the living and dining areas. The living room features a carved marble mantle, while oversized windows and a bay alcove flood the dining room with natural light. A Lincrusta chair rail enhances the historic appeal. The kitchen offers custom cabinetry, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, 6-burner Wolf stove, vented hood, Sharp microwave, Viking dishwasher, and wine fridge, plus an adjacent sunroom. The second level includes a spacious primary suite with ample closets and a spa-like en-suite bath with double vanity, soaking tub, and glass shower, plus two bedrooms and a full bath. The third floor adds three bedrooms, a laundry room with LG washer/dryer, and a full bath with NYC skyline views. The finished ground floor offers a 1-bedroom, 1-bath suite with Bosch appliances—ideal for guests or extended living. Outside, enjoy a landscaped yard, 2-car garage, and parking for 4–5 cars. Near Pershing Field, Central Ave, and NYC transit—this is a rare opportunity to own Jersey City history.
