Hoboken, NJ TownHome Renovation
Originally built in 1901, this historic Brownstone offered remarkable architectural character but no longer reflected the lifestyle of our young clients. Dark woodwork, limited lighting, and dated interiors left the three-story residence feeling closed in and disconnected. Our vision was to preserve its timeless craftsmanship while introducing a fresh perspective that balanced contemporary luxury with everyday comfort.
On the ground level, we removed a dividing wall between the kitchen and family room to create a bright, open environment designed for gathering. The expanded layout accommodates an extendable dining table for intimate dinners and larger celebrations, while vibrant colors and inviting finishes establish an energetic atmosphere for entertaining family and friends.
The main level transitions into a calmer, more refined expression of the home. Soft neutral tones, natural wood, and a striking black and brass chandelier create a sophisticated setting for relaxing at the end of the day. A custom fireplace inspired media cabinet provides generous storage while honoring the home's original architectural character. Adjacent to the living area, a fully customized office features built in cabinetry and thoughtfully integrated organization that supports productive work from home.
Ascending the beautifully crafted staircase reveals a serene primary suite. The spa inspired bathroom features marble look porcelain, a generous rain shower, custom vanity, quartz surfaces, and elegant lighting. Completing the retreat, reclaimed wood and marble furnishings, luxurious bedding, and lush greenery create a peaceful sanctuary that celebrates both history and modern living.
