    Overview

    This detached two-family property is currently vacant and has been completely gutted to the studs. Approved architectural plans from Jersey City support a full rehab, with rough plumbing completed for under the basement concrete slab. The basement functions as a duplex-style layout spanning the entire first-floor area and features higher-than-normal ceilings.

    The main living level is planned as a 4-bedroom, 2 full-bath configuration, and the second floor is planned to match with the same 4-bedroom, 2 full-bath layout. Each floor is approximately 1,350 square feet, and the basement runs the full footprint of the first floor. The design also allows flexibility to modify either floor to a larger 3-bedroom layout, depending on buyer preferences and final unit configuration.

    Located on the west side of Jersey City, between Kennedy Blvd and West Side Ave, and a few blocks south of Communipaw Ave, the property offers a straightforward setup for an owner-operator or investor pursuing a ground-up interior renovation. With approved plans already in hand and key pre-rehab work underway, it may appeal to buyers looking for a phased path to deliver finished, rent-ready layouts on both floors, with the basement included in the overall reconfiguration.
