Overview
Situated on the highly sought-after Doctor’s Row just a few yards from the historic Lincoln Park, this magnificent Shingle-Style Queen Anne was built at the dawn of the new century in 1900 and astoundingly, retains most of its original details. Quite possibly the most photographed house in the area known for exquisite architecture of late Victorian era, the lovingly maintained house features 6 Bedrooms, 3 Bathrooms, a powder room, a log cabin game room in the basement installed in the 1950’s and a rarely attainable rear garage constructed in 1925. True to the character of Shingle Style mostly found in coastal areas of New England, the generous front porch welcomes visitors, and the gorgeously detailed balcony under overhanging gable draws passerby’s eyes upward. Further, the house retains unusual curved-glass windows in two front Bays and curved parquet wood floors to match the shape. Upon walking through wood-enclosed vestibule with doublewide glazed doors, a storybook entry foyer adorned with original staircase banisters, stained glass windows, intricate moldings and inlaid parquet wood floors leads to a voluminous double parlor perfect for entertaining. The jewel-like dining room features a dazzling fireplace mantle with brilliant blue tiles surrounding the hearth. The thoughtfully renovated kitchen boasts custom cabinetry, a sizable island with stovetop, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances and vintage Subway tiles. Also found on the main level are a stunning breakfast room with spectacular stained-glass windows, a laundry and powder room. Upstairs on the second floor, the primary bedroom is furnished with an en-suite bathroom featuring a walk-in shower and a dressing room containing three closets including two walk-ins. Two other spacious bedrooms and a family room with another set of Bay windows facing the park are housed on the second level. On the third floor, three additional bedrooms including two with huge walk-in closets, a full bathroom and a cedar-lined closet are found. Every room of house is in generous proportion and receives abundant natural light. The lawn in the fenced backyard and the front yard are serviced by sprinkler system. With easy access to NYC via Journal Square PATH and a stone’s throw to Lincoln Park, a crown jewel of the Hudson County Park System with a 9-hole golf course, 21 tennis courts, numerous sports fields, a lake, trails, farmer’s market, music nights and a restored fountain from the turn of the century, the house is ideally located in the leafy Lincoln Park neighborhood. ...
