701 Bergen Ave

Step into this remarkable charming duplex apartment spanning two floors of a historic Jersey City brownstone. An opportunity to live in a space with character, size, and warmth that you almost never find on the rental market. This home is filled with original architectural details, including a beautifully preserved carved wood banister connecting the levels, stained-glass accents, decorative corbels on the upstairs archways, elegant sconces throughout, and stunning bay windows that pour natural light into both the living space and the bedrooms. The main level features a generously sized eat-in kitchen with granite countertops, abundant counter space, and room for a full dining table, making it feel like a true home rather than an apartment. The adjoining living area showcases original hardwood floors and classic brownstone charm. Upstairs, the front bedroom is bright and sunny with its bay windows, lovely original inlayed hardwood floors, stunning archways and a decorative mantle that adds to the historic appeal. The rear bedroom includes a walk-in closet plus a cozy nook ideal for a small desk or creative workspace. A full bathroom completes the upper floor. Nestled above an office space, this residence offers privacy and a residential feel while placing you moments from the energetic McGinley Square neighborhood—known for its shops, cafés, restaurants, and easy access to public transportation for a quick commute into New York City. This is a wonderfully unique chance to live in a beautifully preserved, spacious brownstone home overflowing with charm and personality.
