130 North Street is charmingly situated in The Heights between Summit and Central Avenues and brand new to the market. Built in 1890, this single-family home has undergone a total restoration, preserving its turn-of-the-last-century integrity while elegantly upgrading for this era.
Original details persist on top of state-of-the-art renovations for the perfect combination of traditional and modern. Solid wood doors and porcelain door knobs, seven-inch moldings and trim, French oak and pine floors dramatically brought back to life, are supported by new electric, plumbing, and windows, as well as a new boiler and central heat and air. Also added were period perfect pocket doors, a fireplace mantle, and vent grates. And every facet of the project from design and development to financing was spearheaded by ARX, an interdisciplinary firm.
130 North’s parlor is marvelously rich with French oak parquet floors throughout, complete with walnut inlaid details, and an antique fireplace. Sunlight streams in through the windowed front door and foyer and an adjoining sunroom affords even more light and air.
The open kitchen is a departure in look but not feel: Bright because of the new skylight overhead and welcoming but monochromatic with slick custom white cabinets and white Quartz countertops with just a hint of grey variegation. Stainless steel appliances sparkle and the blue slate floor is a bold accent, completing the design of a sophisticated chef’s kitchen.
Immediately accessible from the kitchen is the beautiful backyard — the best slice of suburbia in the heart of Jersey City Heights. A screened-in porch transitions to an outdoor deck leading to a great green lawn for indoor and outdoor enjoyment in any season.
The grand staircase is framed by a restored mahogany banister and another skylight, warmly outlining the way from one floor to the next. Upstairs is the master bedroom with an en-suite bath, as well as an additional bedroom and bathroom. The first floor also includes a half bath and all feature slate tile and high-end fixtures from Hans Grohe and Kohler.
In the full basement is a washer and dryer along with a token of the home’s Victorian past — a cast iron double sink and work bench from the early 1900s.
Just one block from Washington Park and only half a block from Central Avenue, this single-family home is well-located and near public transportation for an easy and vibrant lifestyle in The Heights. Rarely found under one roof, 130 North Street is a classic in mint condition.
