Tucked away in Jersey City's Historic Harsimus Cove district, this carriage house offers a rare combination of absolute privacy and modern luxury. Originally built c. 1870 to house horse-drawn carriages, the home has been completely updated for the 21st century while retaining its historic charm.
Because it is a standalone structure, there are no shared walls with neighbors, providing a uniquely quiet and peaceful retreat right in the heart of the city. It is the perfect home for visiting academics, executive relocations, or a premium basecamp for major local events.
We offer custom, extended-stay pricing tailored to academic sabbaticals (3 to 9 months) and premium 28-day blocks for the Summer 2026 tournament.
Make this historic home your private headquarters for the 2026 World Cup. Located a highly convenient 15-minute commute from the FIFA World Cup Final at MetLife Stadium, the Harsimus Cove Carriage House is available for an exclusive 28-day minimum booking during the tournament. Avoid the hotel crowds and enjoy a private, turnkey home. Enjoy WFH during the day, immediate access to Manhattan watch parties, and easy stadium transit.
Every detail of the Carriage House has been thoughtfully curated for extended, comfortable living:
