Situated on one of the most coveted blocks in Downtown Jersey City, 130 Mercer Street fulfills every urbanite’s desire across four stories and 3,958 square feet. The single-family boasts the architectural integrity befitting its location in the heart of the Van Vorst Park Historic District but has been renovated by Dixon Projects to include every imaginable luxury, including expansive private outdoor space, a brand new elevator, and high-end finishes.
Ascend the brownstone steps and through the grand vestibule to find the spacious parlor level with period-perfect details. White oak floors run throughout and the layout was updated to complement a contemporary lifestyle. An open kitchen separates the living area with a picture-window view to the charming street below and the dining area in the rear of the home.
The elegant kitchen features a wall of ample custom cabinetry, some with glass fronts, and white Caesarstone quartz countertops, as well as a glass tile backsplash, which contrasts well with the black waterfall edge island that doubles as a breakfast bar. Top-of-the-line appliances include a Wolf range, Broan hood, Fisher & Paykel refrigerator, Bosch dishwasher, and a Summit wine cooler. Two Art Deco-inspired globe pendants punctuate the space and plenty of additional recessed lighting sparkles overhead.
Breeze through an ornate original archway, past last century plaster moldings and millwork that were meticulously restored, and into the living area. A decorative fireplace mantel is the focal point of the spacious room and here you also have access to both the brand new rear deck and the elevator that conveniently stops on each floor. For more traditional access, climb the original staircase that was painstakingly restored at the front of the house.
Master suite takes on a whole new meaning on the second level with a floor-through expanse, including a bedroom, bath, walk-in closet, and separate lounge. The bright bedroom has wonderful light and another original decorative fireplace mantel, while the entire floor also offers high-quality blackout shades. The spa-like master bath clad in marble tile includes both a deep soaking tub and a glass-enclosed standing shower plus a dual vanity.
Two additional bedrooms with hardwood floors and walk-in closets are on the third floor as is the showstopping access to the rooftop terrace. The final staircase leads seemingly up to a skylight, however, with the push of a button, the glass door swings up and open to your private roof deck, perfect for summer entertaining with friends and family.
The garden level of the home also includes two additional bedrooms plus an expansive finished space complete with a wet bar, rec room, and a second washer and dryer. Both the garden level and the first-floor deck lead to an idyllic private backyard.
Sublimely historical and chic at the same time, 130 Mercer Street is an impeccably restored home and offers the everyday convenience of Downtown living close to bars, restaurants, shops, services, parks, and the PATH train just blocks away at Grove Street.
130 Mercer Street is asking $2,799,000.
