117 Palisade Ave

Welcome to this very well maintained two-family property spanning 2,412 s.f. on a 20x87 lot. This exceptional property is comprised of two expansive duplex units, offering a rare blend of historic charm and modern convenience. The lower duplex spans the first floor and finished basement. On the main level, you are greeted by soaring high ceilings, recessed lighting, and hardwood floors that flow through an airy, open-concept living and dining space. The living room is anchored by a classic bay window, while the eat-in kitchen features granite countertops and a full suite of appliances, including a gas stove, built-in microwave, and dishwasher. The primary bedroom on this level serves as a true retreat, offering direct access to a private backyard and deck—perfect for indoor-outdoor entertaining. Downstairs, the finished basement adds significant living space with a second living area, an additional bedroom, a full bath, and dedicated laundry. The upper duplex, occupying the second and third floors, is equally impressive with three bedrooms and two full baths. This sun-drenched home retains its elegant character through crown molding, an original chandelier medallion, and a versatile alcove off the living room that is ideal for a home office or personal gym. The main level of this unit also features an open-concept layout and a signature bay window, while the top floor houses two quiet bedrooms and a modern full bath. Situated directly across from Christ Hospital and just a few blocks from the iconic Riverview-Fisk Park, residents enjoy panoramic Manhattan skyline views and a vibrant local culture of coffee shops like Modcup and Lil’ Dove Cafe. Commuting is effortless with the 123 and 119 NJ Transit buses at your doorstep for a direct ride to Port Authority, and the 2nd Street Light Rail or Journal Square PATH station both less than a mile away, putting NYC and Hoboken just minutes from home.
