Deeded parking. In-unit laundry. No stairs. Finding one in downtown Jersey City is lucky; finding all three in one home is nearly impossible. This first-floor one bedroom sits in a classic red brick building on a quiet Van Vorst Park block. The living room has a full-height exposed brick chimney with the original arched hearth, oak hardwood floors, and two large windows that keep it bright all day, with room for a sofa, table, and desk plus a deep shelved closet. The open kitchen offers granite counters, subway tile backsplash, and full-size stainless appliances including a gas range, dishwasher, and built-in microwave. The breakfast bar seats three, and a full-size LG washer and dryer sits alongside extra pantry storage. The bedroom fits a queen with room to spare, with two windows, a ceiling fan, a good-sized closet, and a glass French door that keeps it bright even when closed. The bathroom has a fully tiled stall shower, pedestal sink, and two medicine cabinets. Your deeded spot is steps from the front door, a rare advantage where street parking is a daily competition. Van Vorst Park and its Saturday farmers market are around the corner, Grove Street PATH is about a 12-minute walk to WTC and Midtown, and Exchange Place, the light rail, and the ferry are easily reachable, with downtown's dining and nightlife all around. Homes this size with deeded parking and in-unit laundry rarely come to market here. Come see it before it's gone.
