193 Summit Ave, Jersey City, NJ 07306

Architectural Stunner! Located in the heart of Jersey City's fast growing McGinley Square neighborhood, this extra wide Victorian, built in 1850 by the Van Keuren family, was lovingly restored in 2015 with all new electric, plumbing and central HVAC. This renovation maintained many details - original moldings throughout, hardwood floors, two fireplaces - and combined it with everything essential for modern living. Located 12 minutes walk to Journal Square PATH, the home greets you with it's genteel and ornate front porch. It opens up into a vast foyer. There are two living rooms with built in bookshelves and the first of two fireplaces - this one in white marble. There is a dining room, powder room, and a wide open, sparkling white chef's kitchen with stainless steel appliances including a 36" Bertazonni stove, granite countertops and island that overlooks a paved backyard with large planter boxes, built in benches and space for large parties. 2nd and 3rd floors contain 4 large bedrooms, two office/storage spaces and a beautiful new full bathroom. The ceiling height throughout is extraordinary and gives one the sense of space, light and scale not often found in city homes. The unfinished basement with laundry also has unusually high ceilings and can easily be renovated to add future value. There is parking for two cars.
