About this home
An exceptional opportunity awaits in the heart of Jersey City's sought-after Bergen-Lafayette neighborhood: a legal three-family home tailor-made for the first-time multi-family buyer. With three well-proportioned units, this property is perfect for house-hacking — live in one unit and let two rent-paying tenants help carry your mortgage — or for the investor seeking a turnkey income producer with real upside. Each of the three units offers a comfortable 2-bedroom, 1-bath layout, giving you a consistent, easy-to-rent floor plan across the building. Downstairs, the basement is ready to be finished — a blank canvas offering the potential for additional usable space and added long-term value. Out back, an unusually large yard is your private oasis waiting to happen: picture a garden, an entertaining space, or a peaceful retreat you design from the ground up. Outdoor space this generous is a genuine rarity in Jersey City. The location is a commuter's dream. You're close to both the MLK Drive Station and the Garfield Avenue Station on the Hudson-Bergen Light Rail, giving you flexible, easy access to Hoboken, the Jersey City waterfront, and connections toward Manhattan. Nearby bus routes round out the transit options, while Bergen-Lafayette's growing lineup of local shops, cafés, and parks keeps everyday life close to home. If you've been searching for the right entry point into multi-family ownership, this is space, income, and potential in one of Jersey City's most dynamic neighborhoods.
