Whimsical and enchanting, this classically refinished single family home (with parking!) welcomes in Western Slope. Tucked along a tranquil, tree-lined street in this quiet corner of Jersey City Heights, the three-story floorplan offers three bedrooms, two baths, a bonus room and an oversized backyard. Defying cookie-cutter conventions, this property brings a strong interior art deco influence punctuated by architectural archways and modern upgrades.
Step into beautiful hardwood floors and a sun-drenched living space that flows effortlessly downstairs to the main living area. The fully renovated eat-in kitchen hosts coveted radiant heat flooring, plus finishes like white quartz counters, herringbone tile backsplash, grey shaker cabinets and stainless steel appliances. A dedicated butler’s pantry adds storage and polish, while the floorplan gives space for a formal dining table or casual breakfast nook, take your pick.
Upstairs offers a loft-like bonus space perfect for flexible living space, alongside an oversized additional bedroom. Bathrooms are beautifully finished with details like Caribbean blue porcelain tile to the ceiling, frosted windows for natural light and privacy, and glass showers with rain and multi-spray systems. Closets and built-in shelves a peppered throughout, allowing everyday living to be easily organized. The lower level also features an oversized mudroom with direct outdoor access giving rare functionality and flow.
The grande finale is the MASSIVE private backyard with the kind of space that invites summer BBQs, gardening projects, and (domesticated) four-legged friends to roam free. Additional upgrades include the Navien tankless water heater with state of the art Mitsubishi coolant system.
This classic, unassuming exterior hides a home full of unexpected charm, and embodies the spirit of Jersey City Heights. Western Slope is known for its quiet, neighborly feel while still offering all the amenities of Jersey City Heights. Residents can take advantage of proximity to thoroughfares like JFK Blvd and major highways for commuting, *OR* stick close to home and find easy access to schools, parks, boutique shops and one-of-a-kind restaurants & cafes. Win-win when you live here:)
