About the Tenafly Real Estate Market
Tenafly's real estate market is anchored by single-family homes on generous lots — most properties trade between $900K and $2.5M, with premium estates in the Smith School and East Hill sections exceeding $3M. The town's downtown along Washington Street and County Road has been steadily revitalized with new restaurants, retail, and the modernized Tenafly Community Center. Tenafly Public Schools is one of the strongest K-12 districts in Bergen County, drawing many families from NYC and other NJ towns. Commuters use NJ Transit buses to the Port Authority (~45 min) or drive to Englewood/Fort Lee for express options. Inventory turns over slowly — Tenafly homes are typically held for 10-20+ years. Properties near Tenafly Nature Center and on the East Hill (closer to the Palisades) command premiums for their views and lot sizes.
