In a stunning fusion of waterfront living and expansive accommodations, this sprawling 2 bedroom, 2 bath property in the coveted Sugar House community is on the market for the first time ever. With sweeping views of New York City, Ellis Island, the Statue of Liberty and Liberty State Park, this 2,000 square foot home at 174 Washington Street is a marvel.

Framed by gorgeous windows, the living room is breathtaking with an abundance of natural light and incredible views from two exposures. The 10-foot high ceilings are punctuated by original brick columns. Spherical chandeliers radiate a chic ambiance, while a working fireplace crafts a warm and inviting atmosphere. Wide-plank wood floors run throughout the entire home.

The oversized kitchen boasts speckled granite countertops and Viking appliances. Wood cabinetry with built-in wine rack and peek-a-boo shelving complement the understated double sink and recessed lighting.

Windows in both bedrooms allow natural light to flood the rooms from nearly every angle. The master bedroom boasts a spacious walk-in closet with built-in shelving. Featuring a jetted tub and separate shower, the attached master bathroom’s tile surround exudes sophistication and style. The guest bathroom has a stand-alone shower and decorative sink, with a wall separating the toilet from the shower.

One private, non-tandem parking space is included, as is 24-hour concierge service, a fitness center and bike storage. Residents also have access to a shared patio with gardens, gas grills and planters.

Sugar House is one of downtown Jersey City’s premier buildings. Built in 1863 by Danish architect Detlef Lienau, the building served as a sugar warehouse for F.O. Matthiessen & Wiechers and, later, the American Sugar Refining Company. It was converted to residences in the early 2000’s.
