Description
This beautifully preserved 1890s townhouse, nestled on a quiet, tree-lined street in the heart of McGinley Square, seamlessly combines timeless architectural details with thoughtful modern updates, offering the perfect balance of character and comfort. Beyond the original glass double doors awaits a warm and inviting interior highlighted by soaring 11-foot ceilings, intricate crown molding, bay windows, and gleaming pine wood floors. The expansive living and dining areas are filled with natural light, creating an ideal setting for both everyday living and entertaining. The updated kitchen features stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, and ample cabinetry, flowing effortlessly into a bright all-season sunroom with French doors. Upstairs, you’ll find three generously sized bedrooms filled with natural light and excellent closet space. A newly renovated full bath showcasing modern finishes completes this level, while skylights enhance the upper floor with additional natural light. The fully finished walk-out garden level offers exceptional versatility, featuring open living space, a newly renovated full bathroom, updated flooring, and washer/dryer, making it ideal as a family room, guest suite, flex bedroom, au pair space, or home office. Significant recent upgrades include Renewal by Andersen windows and doors, a Unico high-velocity heating and cooling system, a new water heater, an upgraded electrical panel, and a beautifully restored façade and front steps, blending modern efficiency with the home’s historic charm. Outside, enjoy your oversized 16.67 x 144.87 lot with a spacious backyard, perfect for gatherings, gardening, or simply unwinding in your own private urban retreat. Parking is available for an additional fee at the lot down the street! Located in the vibrant McGinley Square section of Journal Square, one of Jersey City’s fastest-growing neighborhoods, this home is just minutes from the Journal Square PATH terminal for an easy NYC commute and close to parks, shops, restaurants, and major highways. The area is also convenient to several private and charter school options including Bergen-Lafayette Montessori School, Primary Prep, Liberty Community Charter School (LCCS), and St. Elizabeth School.
