About this home
Welcome to 79 Chestnut Ave, a lovingly cared-for two-family tucked away on one of the most peaceful streets in Jersey City’s Journal Square Island/Hilltop section. This pocket of the city has a neighborhood feel that doesn’t feel city like at all, yet you’re still minutes from transportation, shopping, and everything the city has to offer.
This home has been well maintained and truly taken care of. Unit 1 is a spacious three-bedroom, two-full-bath duplex with plenty of room to spread out. Unit 2 is a one-bedroom, one-full-bath, a great fit for a tenant, extended family, or a rental income stream.
Then there’s the backyard. It’s large, a real rarity in this part of the city, and it opens the door to endless possibilities for outdoor entertaining, gardening, or potential for an extension, and you have a true opportunity to build equity and make this home your own.
