As a local resident and agent, I know how rare a find it is to see “working fireplace” in an apartment or even single-family brownstone anywhere near Jersey City or Hoboken. When one comes to market, you don’t just jump – you leap. In honor of Fall (or is this pre-Winter?) finally blessing us with its crisp, cool nights, let’s take a tour of some lovely, leave-us-all-green-with-envy, wood-burning fireplaces.

Wood-burning fireplace meets wood-burning oven. This beauty could double as an extra place to cook.

An outdoor fireplace fit for Ina. You bring the marshmallows, I’ll bring the wine.

Natural Wood
With all the painted wood, stone, and tile fireplaces out there, it’s nice to see wood in its more natural state.

A Craftsman’s Handy Work
Love the woodworking above the fireplace almost as much as the fireplace itself.
