Three sun-filled exposures pour light into this meticulously rehabbed, semi-detached, brownstone. Mahogany doors open to the huge double parlor's grand entertaining space, offering high ceilings and extra tall windows, 2 antique marble mantles and the warm glow of Kelly Wearstler’s Strada lighting. A convenient powder room is finished in custom wall and window treatments by artist Joe Waks. Explore your inner chef in the perfectly appointed kitchen, finished in marbled quartzite counters, accented by Poulsen inspired pendants and Ann Sacks tiles. Easily serve in the dining area under your Alvar Aalto chandelier. The Viking double wall ovens, a drawer microwave, a wine fridge, a Ruvati double sink, ample storage cabinets and pantry provide all your tools for a cozy breakfast or formal dinner party. Laundry and a half bath are tucked privately in back, along with an entry onto your private, rarely available, parking space…a Downtown Jersey City luxury. The upper floor bedrooms have corner windows overlooking the historic neighborhood. Both full windowed baths are beautifully renovated with your choice of a relaxing clawfoot tub or a brand new shower. A convenient den offers the perfect work from home space or can be easily used as a fourth bedroom. Finally, the rooftop urban oasis blends magnificent historic views with glimpses of New York's skyscrapers and waterfront high rises. Gorgeous hickory floors, 27 newer double paned windows, dual zone central air/heat, fully updated utilities, a full basement + too many extras to mention here, complete this perfect picture. Out your door you’re just steps from everything you love about Downtown: 24hr NYC PATH trains, vibrant Newark Avenue dining and nightlife, tranquil parks and charming boutiques. Welcome home!
