About This Home

Welcome to Gloria Gables, an iconic pre-war Mediterranean Art Deco building in the heart of historic Lincoln Park. This oversized 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home offers nearly 1,800 sq ft of timeless charm blended with modern upgrades. Featured in the film Two Lovers starring Gwyneth Paltrow and Joaquin Phoenix, this residence showcases stunning original details including rich hardwood floors, decorative moldings, and the elegant character you expect in a historic home. The spacious, beautifully renovated kitchen features KitchenAid appliances, Kohler fixtures, a deep farmhouse-style sink, abundant cabinetry, and thoughtfully selected tilework. The serene primary suite includes a spa-inspired bath with a soaking tub and warm Spanish-style tile. The building also offers a shared landscaped backyard perfect for dining alfresco with the lush backdrop of Lincoln Park just beyond. A well-run building with a live-in superintendent, Gloria Gables is meticulously maintained and offers exceptional convenience. Commuters will love the accessibility: buses in both directions just half a block away, CitiBike nearby, and the Journal Square PATH a little over a mile away. This home also qualifies for low down-payment financing with no PMI, making it an incredible opportunity to own a truly unique Jersey City residence.* Many photos has been been virtually staged.
