A perfect balance of clam and vibrant. Located on a tree-lined street, this bright urban chic condo with exposed brick walls speaks to the history of Jersey City. It features a large living space with a newly renovated fireplace, an open concept kitchen, nicely tucked bedroom and one bathroom.

The rich cherrywood cabinets, granite counters, SS appliances w/ tumble stone back-splash make this kitchen the focal point and the fireplace a perfect charm. The Neighborhood: Walk to Jersey City's downtown vibrant restaurant row and pedestrian walk. The neighborhood is safe and diverse with many charming restaurants and cafes as well as several delis convenient for grocery shopping. The apartment is 2 blocks from PATH train station and a block away from streets packed with hip restaurants, cheap eats, fine dining places and bars. The great Jersey City Farmers Market that is up from May through December is right across the street.
