Tenafly Homes
Tenafly homes are always in high
demand. In fact, more Tenafly homes
sold in 2009 than they did in 2008
and price depreciation, which was
severe for many other affluent
locations in Bergen County, was an
almost miserly 6% for Tenafly homes
and all indications are that Tenafly
homes will not experience
depreciation in 2010.
Indisputably one of the most in
demand locations in the New York
metropolitan area, Tenafly has all
the features people desire. Let’s
start with location – simply
perfect. Tenafly is 8 miles from New
York City; it’s a 10 minute drive to
the toll booths on the George
Washington Bridge and 15 minutes to
all major highways. All metropolitan
airports are nearby as well – less
than a one hour drive and Bergen
County’s famous shopping malls are
less than 5 miles away.
As for shopping, Tenafly has a
robust and extensive business
district that covers many blocks in
size and contains everything from a
gourmet cooking shop to a local news
stand. We have everything in between
with plenty of good restaurants,
personal services such as beauty
salons and an exercise club, a
supermarket, dry cleaner, woman’s
dress shop and a multi generation
owned book store just for openers.
Because the down town is so
extensive, it’s also a place where
people meet each other; it’s not
unusual to see someone you know with
every trip. For all its large size,
Tenafly is a very close community.
A primary reason for this is the
school district – people move here
because of the schools which boast
the highest SAT scores in Bergen
County. In fact, Tenafly is one of
the most powerful school districts
in New Jersey with facilities second
to none. Parent participation is
high and school board elections are
hotly contested; people care keenly
about their school district and
support it strongly.
For all its reputation for
affluence, Tenafly has a
surprisingly wide demographic. It
has estate homes on acre lots on the
East Hill and more moderate
properties on the west side of town
but this is a tightly knit community
where people come together as one.
This special characteristic of the
Tenafly community makes living here
a very wonderful experience.
Tenafly is one of the crown
jewels of Bergen County known for
it’s sophisticated and affluent
population and yet it is a sweet
small town where you can raise your
family with classic all American
values. Can it be any surprise that
Tenafly homes are always in high
demand?
