Property Description
Beautifully renovated and thoughtfully maintained, this exceptional three-bedroom, 2½-bath home is nestled in the heart of Downtown Jersey City's Harsimus Cove Historic District. With its distinctive historic character, beautiful architectural details, private courtyard garden, and highly convenient location just minutes from the Grove Street PATH and Hamilton Park, this remarkable home offers a rare combination of history, character, and modern comfort. The main level welcomes you with an airy foyer and impressive living room featuring a decorative fireplace with original marble mantle. The open layout flows into a spacious eat-in kitchen with generous cabinetry, white subway tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and an oversized island. A convenient powder room and direct access to the rear bluestone courtyard garden complete this level. Upstairs, the second floor features a truly generous primary suite bathed with natural light, featuring a custom walk-in closet and a beautifully renovated bathroom with an oversized stall shower and double shower heads. The top floor offers another two bedrooms, a full updated bathroom, and plenty of closet space for all of your storage needs. Behind its restored brick façade and distinctive copper bay window, the home seamlessly blends historic charm with thoughtful updates. Marvin and Pella windows, 2-zone central air and heat, and three decorative fireplaces including two with original marble mantles showcasing the character of a bygone era. The full unfinished basement provides excellent storage and utility space, washer and dryer, and a dedicated mechanical area, while leaving plenty of room for future possibilities. Outdoor spaces have also been thoughtfully maintained. The rear bluestone courtyard and backyard fence were refinished in July 2026, while the front iron fence was refinished in August 2026. Additional updates include a roof and gutters installed in 2021 with a 25-year warranty, Miele washer and dryer installed in 2022 and a well-maintained Weil-McLain AquaBalance tankless water heater installed around 2020. The home is also hardwired throughout with CAT6 ethernet cabling, providing excellent connectivity for today's work-from-home lifestyle. The home's history is as special as its architecture, with a fascinating succession of Jersey City residents over the decades, including grocers, a reverend, a carpenter, a barber, and two generations of a family who called this their home from 1919-1992. Located within the National Register-listed Harsimus Cove Historic District, this home offers an exceptional Downtown Jersey City lifestyle with an easy commute to Manhattan via Grove Street PATH. Hamilton Park, Newark Avenue's pedestrian plaza, neighborhood cafés, restaurants, shops, and everyday conveniences are all close at hand. Enjoy the true residential setting of Harsimus Cove while remaining close to the energy and amenities of Downtown Jersey City. A truly special home where Jersey City history, timeless architecture, private outdoor space, and modern updates come together in an exceptional Downtown location!
