Situated beside its equally elegant twin, this circa-1880s Victorian two-family home stands proudly on iconic Sherman Place in Jersey City Heights. Set on a rare 37 x 194 lot, it blends historic charm with modern upgrades, offering a 4-bedroom, 2-bath primary residence, a fully renovated 2-bedroom garden apartment, and rare off-street multi-car parking—just blocks from parks, NYC transit, and Central Ave shops. Classic Victorian details—corbel brackets, scalloped shingles, and a wide front porch—set a timeless tone. Inside, hardwood floors with detailed inlays, pocket doors, intricate moldings, and plaster medallions speak to the home’s rich heritage, while modern systems, including 3 separate HVAC systems, ensure comfort and efficiency. The main duplex is thoughtfully laid out and spans two bright levels. A gracious living room with bay window and decorative stone fireplace opens to a den with custom built-ins, a formal dining room, and a spacious eat-in kitchen with wood cabinetry, center island, stainless steel appliances, and a built-in window seat. A glass door leads to a large rear deck overlooking the deep backyard—ideal for entertaining or quiet mornings. Upstairs, four generous bedrooms provide flexibility, along with a full bath and laundry closet. Above, the expansive 800 SF attic with soaring 18’ ceiling offers exciting potential for a luxurious suite or studio space. The garden-level apartment has been fully updated, featuring its own HVAC, private entrance, and stylish finishes—ideal for guests, rental income, or multigenerational living. Long driveway parking and favorable zoning allows for expansion, value and opportunity. This is a rare chance to own a piece of Jersey City history on one of its most sought-after streets, full of warmth, elegance, and future potential.
