49 Park Ave

A brick-faced pre-war residential building in Bloomfield, NJ, originally constructed in 1926 and offering mostly one-bedroom condominium units with classic period details. Units typically showcase high ceilings, hardwood floors, and architectural flourishes such as exposed beams, cathedral ceilings in select spaces, built-in cabinetry, decorative chandeliers, and spacious walk-in closets. Kitchens and baths have frequently been modernized — stainless appliances, cherry or custom cabinetry, tile backsplashes and upgraded mechanicals appear in many listings — while some residences retain original carved woodwork and arched doors that reflect the building’s historic character. Common areas include an elevator, on-site laundry, and secure basement storage lockers; some homes have access to private patios, decks, or small backyard areas. Exterior amenities emphasize residential convenience: sidewalks, curbs, underground lawn sprinklers, and limited off-street or garage parking options; a number of units include assigned parking or garage spaces. Building policies vary by unit but listings note pet-friendliness with size limits and occasional restrictions related to FHA approval. The location is commuter-focused — a short walk to Glen Ridge/Bloomfield transit, nearby bus service to NYC, and easy access to downtown Bloomfield’s shops, restaurants, parks, and nearby Montclair — combining urban connectivity with neighborhood-scale streets and historic streetscape.
