Situated on one of the most fabled streets of Jersey City just a few yards from Lincoln Park, this spectacular Victorian built in 1908 features three floors of generous living space, five bedrooms, two full bathrooms, parking, a huge backyard with a covered patio, windows on all four sides, and much of its century-old original grandeur intact. Atop a hill from the park known as the crown jewel of the Hudson County Park System and on ‘Doctor’s Row’ lined with leafy trees and grand old houses from the turn of the last century, the front yard filled with blooming bulbs and the recently restored storybook façade welcome the visitors. The house has been thoughtfully renovated and lovingly maintained over the years. The ground floor boasts two sets of Bay Windows and two fireplace mantles in the living room and the formal dining room. The gorgeous kitchen has been renovated with a nod to the period when the house was built; the vintage stove and cast-iron apron sink were installed in harmony with modern cabinetry, stainless steel appliances and granite countertops. A set of vintage doors leads to the deck and the enchanting backyard landscaped with mature plantings. Ideal for entertaining, the house flows beautifully from inside to out. Almost all the Old-World characters have been retained including several stained-glass windows, intricate moldings, hardwood floors, gorgeous staircase banisters, working radiators, hardware, built-in hutches and bookshelves, and plaster medallions. Each bedroom is in excellent proportion including the primary bedroom with a dressing room and a fireplace mantle. The house is flooded with natural light throughout the day. Lincoln Park offers a nine-hole golf course, 21 tennis courts, farmer’s market, playgrounds, dog runs, numerous sports fields, a pond, and nature’s walks. Do not miss this very rare opportunity to live on the highly sought-after block of Bentley Avenue.
