The one you've been (impatiently) waiting for. Nestled in one of Jersey City’s most desirable neighborhoods, Residence 2 at 297.5 Montgomery Street is an expansive and impeccably appointed three bedroom, two-and-a-half-bathroom duplex offering the perfect blend of historic charm and modern sophistication — all mere steps from the greenery and serenity of celebrated Van Vorst Park. With 2,008 SF of thoughtfully designed interior living space, this duplex — housed within a semi-detached 20' wide brick townhouse — is the rare offering that combines grand proportions with high-end finishes and three private outdoor spaces, including a 351 SF roof deck. From the moment you arrive, you're welcomed by a striking sense of privacy and luxury that’s uncommon in city living. Inside, soaring ceilings and a spacious open-concept layout define the main living and entertaining area and offer untold flexibility along with ample room for two dedicated seating areas. The heart of the home is a designer chef’s kitchen featuring quartz countertops, a center island with seating, stainless steel appliances highlighted by a Viking Professional range and wine refrigeration. The kitchen also offers easy access to a private balcony that's a perfect place to start your morning with a coffee and a plan for the day. Upstairs, the king-size primary suite is a sanctuary all its own, complete with a private balcony, dual walk-in closets, and a spa-quality en-suite bathroom outfitted in imported stone, a dual vanity, and a glass-enclosed walk-in shower. The two additional bedrooms are smartly separated for privacy and comfort. They share a beautifully tiled full bath and are connected by a hallway with dual linen closets and hampers, all designed by California Closets. Additional features at Residence 2 at 297.5 Montgomery Street include a 351 SF private roof deck that is perfect for three season entertaining as well as central air and heating with Nest thermostats and a laundry room with a full size Whirlpool washer and dryer. Perfectly located in the heart of downtown Jersey City, this home offers effortless access to the Grove Street PATH station, NYC-bound transit, charming local boutiques, coffee shops, award-winning dining, and the waterfront. Life near Van Vorst Park means weekend farmers’ markets, dog runs, playgrounds, and a tight-knit neighborhood feel — all just moments from Manhattan. This is not just a home — it’s a lifestyle.
