Wonder Lofts, the historic condo conversion designed by MVMK Architecture + Design, continues to set the pace in Hoboken’s luxury condominium market, attracting buyers from Manhattan, Brooklyn and New Jersey with uncommonly-large living and private outdoor spaces coupled with deeded parking, extensive amenities and preserved architectural charm.  Showcasing the building’s ongoing success is the sale of a top-floor Penthouse at the boutique property which was born out of the historic conversion of the iconic Wonder Bread factory.

The newly built residence features 1,665 square feet of space and is notable for its open floorplan and sweeping skyline views of lower Manhattan and Jersey City from the living and dining area and all three bedrooms.  The home features three sets of floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors leading out to a 1,909 square-foot private terrace from the living room and dining room, with additional access from the primary bedroom. 

The home was part of the Penthouse Collection at Wonder Lofts, an offering of just two remarkable residences distinguished by their expansive floorplans and unrivaled amount of private outdoor space.  The Penthouse remaining available for sale at Wonder Lofts is the larger of the two and offers dramatic views of the NYC skyline from every room.  The home boasts an open layout in its three-bedroom 2,001 square-foot floor plan that features an expansive kitchen and living/dining area perfect for entertaining, and a dramatic 1,895 square-foot terrace.  The residence is offered at $3,499,000 and is available for immediate occupancy.

The Penthouse residences feature the same extraordinary living spaces and interiors design elements found throughout Wonder Lofts’ collection of 83 homes which is more than 70% sold.  Perhaps most unique for the New York metropolitan area are the large living spaces found in each home.  Each residence includes a suburban-sized designer kitchen with center island that opens to a spacious living room, primary bedrooms with a large walk-in closet, luxurious en-suite bathroom with large walk-in-shower, soaking tub and dual sink vanity, large windows, a Latch smart home entry system and abundant storage throughout the home.  Other features found in many of the homes include a half-bath located off the great room, multi-functional den/home office, and a separate laundry room with custom cabinetry and a utility sink.  Each home comes with deeded parking in an on-site secure parking garage and the private outdoor living areas. 

All of the homes at Wonder Lofts are finished with the same premium materials and contemporary finishes found in the Penthouse Collection, including 7.5-inch-wide white oak hardwood plank floors, custom off-white kitchen cabinetry framed with oak trim, elegant white Calcutta Laza kitchen countertops, top-of-the line kitchen appliances including a built-in Sub-Zero refrigerator/freezer, Wolf gas range, oven and microwave drawer, and Bosch dishwasher, and in many homes, a Sub-Zero undercounter wine/beverage refrigerator. The in-residence laundry room is equipped with a Bosch washer and a Bosch dryer.  Bathrooms include custom wall-hung oak cabinetry with off-white Glacier honed marble countertop.

Prism Capital Partners developed Wonder Lofts in partnership with Angelo Gordon and Parkwood Development.  

Remaining homes at Wonder Lofts are priced from $1,495,000 for two-bedroom residences, $1,899,000 for three-bedroom homes, and $2,249,000 for four-bedroom floor plans.

Design touches of the original Wonder Bread factory, which once produced freshly baked bread from the 1910s to the 1960s, have been preserved in the contemporary redesign.  The original brick detail, archways, high ceilings, large windows, a smokestack, and a water tower were all meticulously restored, and such modern additions as a façade of glass and light grey aluminum add to and accentuate the restored original structure. The community also includes a newly constructed five-story building located across the street, which is home to fifteen of the residences, several of which include private yards.

Living at Wonder Lofts includes enjoying 14,400 square feet of shared indoor and outdoor amenities for an elevated lifestyle. The highest rooftop, with its stunning 360-degree views of the Manhattan skyline, all of Hoboken and beyond, is a beautifully landscaped patio lounge featuring an infinity-edge swimming pool with lounge chairs, a circular outdoor bar underneath the restored water tower, gas barbeque grills, and abundant dining and lounge seating areas with a fire pit.

An indoor residents’ lounge on the second floor features a large and elegant living room that opens to a lushly landscaped, outdoor terraced patio and garden with seating areas.  A floor-to-ceiling brick, double-faced fireplace separates the living room from an open concept dining room and entertainment kitchen, and an adjacent billiards and game room. 

Families will appreciate the building’s children’s playroom, complete with padded floors, bean bag seating, toys, and books, as well as a fully equipped children’s art center ideal for fostering individual and group creativity and fun. A full gym equipped with the latest cardio and strength training equipment and a separate fully equipped yoga/flex studio will keep residents healthy in body and mind. There is also a screening room with couch seating and video gaming capability.

The building also features a two-story 24-hour attended lobby, an additional large residents’ lounge with fireplace and co-working/study area, a secure onsite parking garage with electric car charging stations and a pet grooming area that will provide a pleasant space for residents to pamper their furry family members.

Located at 720 Clinton Street, Wonder Lofts places residents in the heart of Hoboken, bringing within easy reach all that the dynamic, family-friendly hamlet on the Hudson River is known for. With its tree-lined streets dotted with historic brownstones; an eclectic offering of neighborhood shops, restaurants, and nighttime haunts; numerous parks, a beautifully landscaped waterfront featuring majestic Manhattan skyline views; and proximity to Manhattan enhanced by PATH and Ferry service, this pedestrian-friendly town has matured from a convenient commuter starting point for singles and couples to a nesting ground for growing families.
