By
In recent years, the downtown Jersey City skyline has expanded in ways no one could have imagined 20 years ago. And a new mega-development is planned for an area previously untouched, just west of Liberty State Park and the Liberty Landing Marina. Known as The Cove JC, the 13-acre, mixed-use project is envisioned as a global hub for life science, tech, and medicine. It will be comprised of 1.4 million square feet of lab/tech office space and 1.6 million square feet of residences, along with a waterfront park.

Feel like you’re in the Napa Valley at this 86-acre NJ estate, asking $5.9M

By
A mansion, four "barns," a resort-like pool and jacuzzi, a full basketball court--these are just the main attractions at this $5,900,000 property located in Holland Township, New Jersey. The 86-acre estate feels like it's been plucked out of the Napa Valley, with its Tuscan style and rolling grounds. We're pretty certain it doesn't come with the insane sports car and classic car collections (there's even a retro mechanic shop!), but for the price of a Tribeca loft, this is quite the home.

It's not often you find a Craftsman-style home in the northeast, which is why we were so taken with this freestanding house in Hoboken. Located at 819 Hudson Street, a block full of beautiful historic homes, it was built in 1912 and has changed hands only three times since then. The current owner underwent an extensive two-year renovation that included a 2,000+ square-foot extension, which brings the house to a total of 5,200 square feet, six bedrooms, and a full-floor rec room. Plus, because it's on an oversized lot, the backyard is extra large.

Now asking $1.75M, Richard Meier designed this Essex County, NJ home for his parents in 1965

By
His first commission in private practice, architect Richard Meier designed this modernist home in New Jersey for his parents in 1965. The home is set on three-quarters of an acre overlooking the Essex Fells Country Club and because of this natural setting, the architect introduced large glass walls to blur the boundaries between inside and outside. His parents requested a one-story home that offered privacy unlike most suburban homes, so Meier incorporated an interior courtyard, as well as a roof garden. The home has only had one other owner since the Meiers, and they've now listed it for $1,750,000.

After sitting vacant for over a decade, a large site in Jersey City's Journal Square will soon be home to two 710-foot towers with over 1,700 units of housing. The Jersey City Planning Board on Tuesday approved Kushner Companies' controversial One Journal Square project, signaling the beginning of the end of this development saga. The approval came after the city and the developer reached a settlement agreement last October over a lawsuit filed in 2018 against the city by Kushner Companies, run by the family of White House advisor Jared Kushner, that claimed officials stalled the project over "anti-Trump" sentiment.

Earlier this year, the New York Times called Wyckoff, New Jersey "a peaceful suburb with a sense of community," and noted that the Bergen County town has been seeing "an influx of young families, who value its small-town atmosphere and relatively low taxes." This Wyckoff property may not be a starter home, but its $3,950,000 price tag gets you a piece of history set on four acres. The main residence, formerly known as the Halstead House, was built in 1779 and has been perfectly preserved over the years. There's also a renovated barn, a guest cottage, and a pool, all set against a beautiful pond.
