204 Bowers St Unit Unit#1, Jc, Heights, NJ 07307

Property Description

Set on a quiet, tree-lined block a short walk from Summit Avenue, 204 Bowers Street #1 is a 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath duplex residence of 1,923 square feet, completed in 2023 and arranged across two full living levels. It is one of only two homes in the building, so there is a single neighbor above and no shared corridors, and it comes with deeded garage parking that opens directly into the residence, EV charging, and a landscaped private garden. That combination rarely surfaces in the Heights at any price. The main level opens into one generous, light-filled room where oversized Pella windows draw sun across hardwood floors, crown molding and custom blinds. At its center is an eat-in kitchen built to be cooked in and gathered around: shaker cabinetry, a waterfall quartz island, farmhouse sink, pot filler and a full suite of Samsung appliances, with room for a full dining table. Three well-proportioned bedrooms offer comfortable, flexible space, while the primary bath is finished with a double vanity, smart mirrors, herringbone tile, matte black fixtures, and a glass-enclosed multi-spray shower. The garden level is where this home separates itself from the rest of the neighborhood. Entirely above grade and fully finished, it lives as a second living room, with its own wet bar, wine fridge and half bath, and glass French doors that open straight onto the garden. It takes easily to whatever a household needs most: a media lounge, a playroom, a gym, a study, or a guest suite with real privacy. Laundry sits discreetly to one side, and the deeded garage opens directly onto this level, so groceries, strollers, bikes and everything else arrive indoors rather than curbside. Outside, the garden is fully landscaped and finished in low-maintenance pavers, framed by a pair of Japanese maples, with a quick-connect gas line at the ready and speakers wired to carry music into the evening. It is the rare Heights outdoor space that asks nothing of you and gives back a full season. Central air runs throughout. Also included: a Samsung washer and dryer, SimpliSafe security with exterior cameras and entry sensors, a fixed safe, a garage storage closet, and deeded non-tandem garage parking with an EV charger, the one amenity no renovation can add later. The two-unit association has no pet restrictions. Annual taxes are approximately $15,735 and monthly HOA dues are $241. The home's 2023 improvement assessment carries a lower base than comparably sized new construction nearby; buyers should verify current figures with the City of Jersey City. Commuters have four NJ Transit routes within a short walk. The 119 and the 125 both run to the Port Authority Bus Terminal in Midtown as a one-seat ride, the 82 heads down to Exchange Place, and the 83 connects to the Journal Square PATH. Pershing Field, Washington Park and Riverview-Fisk Park are all an easy walk, along with the restaurants and shops on Palisade and Central.
