Market Insight

Englewood’s annual averages can swing because it’s a higher-volume town with a wide mix of price points.
Sale/OLP reflects how close successful listings trade to their original asking price, while the success ratio
(Sold ÷ [Sold + Withdrawn + Expired]) reflects how many listings convert to a closing. It’s common to see strong
sale-to-list results in years where well-positioned homes sell competitively, while the success ratio moves based
on how many listings withdraw or expire due to pricing, condition, or timing.

Town layout

A city with distinct residential, downtown, institutional and recreation routines

Englewood combines a substantial downtown with single-family neighborhoods, multifamily housing, larger East Hill properties, schools, a regional hospital, parks and cultural institutions. The buyer experience changes materially by exact address, housing type and relationship to Route 4, Palisade Avenue, bus stops, downtown parking and municipal facilities.

01

Downtown and Palisade Avenue

Palisade Avenue, Engle Street, Dean Street and the Van Brunt corridor form Englewood’s main commercial and cultural center, with restaurants, professional services, shopping, the library and bergenPAC.

Test: walkability, municipal parking, delivery activity, evening events and the route to Route 4.

02

East Hill and larger residential properties

“East Hill” is a commonly used real-estate description rather than a precise municipal boundary. It generally refers to elevated eastern residential areas with a concentration of larger homes, mature landscaping and estate-scale properties.

Test: slope, rock, retaining conditions, drainage, tree maintenance, driveway grade and distance from daily services.

03

Dwight-Englewood and Tenafly Road area

The Dwight-Englewood School campus and nearby residential streets create a distinct east-central pocket. Tenafly Road also connects toward Englewood Cliffs, Tenafly and regional services.

Test: school traffic, event schedules, pedestrian routes and peak-hour conditions.

04

Mackay Park and West Englewood Avenue

Mackay Park anchors municipal recreation with the parks office, fields, courts, pool, ice arena, playgrounds and seasonal programs. Homes nearby can have convenient access and more activity during games and events.

Test: field lighting, parking, pool and rink schedules, event noise and walking conditions.

05

Englewood Health and northern Englewood

Englewood Health’s main campus is a major local institution. Nearby streets can offer practical healthcare access while experiencing employee, visitor, ambulance and service traffic.

Test: siren and traffic patterns at different hours, hospital expansion plans and residential parking controls.

06

Route 4 and southern Englewood

Southern addresses may provide comparatively direct access to Route 4, the George Washington Bridge corridor, Fort Lee, Hackensack and regional retail. Proximity can also create traffic and sound exposure.

Test: ramp access, peak congestion, truck routes, interior sound and alternate local roads.

Schools

A local Pre-K–12 public pathway with charter and independent alternatives

Englewood Public School District organizes students through early-childhood, lower-elementary, upper-elementary, middle and high-school campuses. Academies at Englewood has a separate application process, and charter or independent schools use their own admissions requirements. Confirm current grade placement, registration and services directly.

01

D. A. Quarles · Pre-K and kindergarten

D. A. Quarles Early Childhood Center serves the district’s early-childhood pathway. Program format, eligibility, age cutoffs, registration windows and capacity should be confirmed for the applicable year.

Quarles Early Childhood Center ↗

02

Dr. John Grieco · grades 1–2

Current district materials identify Dr. John Grieco Elementary School as the grades 1–2 campus. Buyers should confirm placement and transition timing when registering after a move.

Grieco Elementary School ↗

03

Dr. Leroy McCloud · grades 3–5

Dr. Leroy McCloud Elementary School serves the upper-elementary pathway. Confirm current grade configuration, transportation and any specialized-program placement directly with the district.

McCloud Elementary School ↗

04

Janis E. Dismus · grades 6–8

Janis E. Dismus Middle School serves the district’s middle-school pathway. Families should review course placement, athletics, activities, transportation and transition procedures.

Dismus Middle School ↗

05

Dwight Morrow · grades 9–12

Dwight Morrow High School serves Englewood’s public high-school students. The campus also houses the Academies at Englewood, which has a separate application process.

Dwight Morrow High School ↗

06

Academies at Englewood

The Academies at Englewood is an application-based program on the Dwight Morrow campus. Admission should not be treated as automatic based on an Englewood address.

Academies information ↗

07

Registration and student services

Confirm domicile documents, immunization and health records, prior school records, special-services coordination, transportation, language services and the earliest registration date before closing.

EPSD registration ↗

08

Charter and independent options

Englewood on the Palisades Charter School uses its own application process. Dwight-Englewood School, The Elisabeth Morrow School and The Moriah School are independent institutions with separate admissions, tuition and transportation policies.

Buyer rule: proximity or residency does not guarantee enrollment outside the assigned public pathway.

Transportation

Multiple bus routes, Route 4 access and nearby rail alternatives without an active in-town station

Englewood’s transportation profile depends on whether the buyer prioritizes Port Authority service, the George Washington Bridge Bus Station, local bus connections, driving or a trip to a nearby Pascack Valley Line station. Exact stop location and trip pattern matter more than a generic commute estimate.

01

NJ TRANSIT Route 166

Route 166 provides New York-bound service through Englewood, with trip patterns that can vary by time and branch. Verify the exact stop, destination and return pattern.

Route 166 MyBus ↗

02

NJ TRANSIT Route 178

Route 178 connects Hackensack and Englewood with the George Washington Bridge Bus Station. It is useful for some Manhattan routines but differs from Port Authority service.

Route 178 MyBus ↗

03

Local and connecting buses

Current MyBus information for central Englewood stops can include Routes 756 and 780 in addition to New York routes. Local connections, service frequency and operating days vary.

NJ TRANSIT bus schedules ↗

04

No active passenger rail station

Englewood does not currently have an operating passenger-rail station. Do not describe proposed Northern Branch or light-rail concepts as existing or guaranteed future service.

Buyer rule: value the home using transportation that operates today.

05

Nearby rail alternatives

Depending on the address and destination, buyers may compare Pascack Valley Line stations in Hackensack, River Edge, New Bridge Landing or Oradell. Parking and train patterns differ by station.

NJ TRANSIT rail schedules ↗

06

Route 4 and the GWB corridor

Route 4 is the principal east–west road connection toward the George Washington Bridge, Fort Lee, Paramus and Hackensack. Drive time changes materially with departure time, weather and incidents.

Test: weekday morning, evening return and an alternate local route.

07

Walk-to-stop and parking analysis

A short map distance does not establish a practical commute. Review sidewalks, crossings, lighting, hills, weather exposure, municipal parking, drop-off feasibility and the late-evening return route.

Record: the stop ID and exact trip used during the test.

08

Build a door-to-door comparison

Compare bus, drive, rideshare and rail alternatives using the same workday. Include waiting, transfers, parking search, walking and service after meetings or evening events.

  • Primary route
  • Backup route
  • Parking cost
  • Late return
  • Winter conditions
Dining, shopping and downtown

A functioning downtown with restaurants, services, arts activity and regional shopping access

Englewood provides more in-town dining, cultural and everyday-service options than many nearby residential communities. The strongest convenience is concentrated around downtown, while East Hill and outer residential addresses generally require a longer drive or walk.

01

Palisade Avenue and downtown

Downtown Englewood has a concentrated mix of restaurants, cafes, bakeries, personal services, professional offices and specialty retail. The tenant mix changes, so confirm current operations directly.

Buyer test: weekday lunch, evening parking and weekend activity.

02

Sofia

Sofia is a current Englewood restaurant on Engle Street. Review current menus, reservations, private-event schedules, valet arrangements and hours directly.

Sofia ↗

03

Antioch Restaurant

Antioch operates on West Palisade Avenue and adds a Turkish and Mediterranean option to the downtown dining mix. Business hours and service format should be verified.

Antioch ↗

04

Casual dining and takeout

Downtown supports fast-casual, takeout and everyday dining as well as full-service restaurants. The Salad House is one current example with an Englewood location.

The Salad House Englewood ↗

05

Shopping and everyday services

Palisade Avenue, Engle Street and nearby blocks provide banks, pharmacies, salons, fitness services, medical offices and specialty businesses. Broader regional shopping is available along Route 4 and in Paramus, Fort Lee and neighboring towns.

Check: parking limits, loading hours and realistic walking distance from the property.

06

Grocery and household routines

Grocery choices extend across Englewood and nearby Tenafly, Fort Lee, Bergenfield, Teaneck and Paramus. Buyers should map the preferred market, pharmacy, dry cleaner and household-service route from the exact address.

Do not assume: every Englewood property has the same downtown convenience.

07

bergenPAC evening activity

Performances at bergenPAC support restaurants and downtown activity while creating periodic parking and traffic demand around North Van Brunt Street.

Current bergenPAC events ↗

08

Nearby dining comparisons

Tenafly, Fort Lee, Edgewater, Teaneck and Closter expand the regional dining range. Compare travel time and parking rather than treating all nearby options as walkable.

Useful comparison: downtown access versus a quieter residential setting.

Parks and programs

Municipal sports and summer programming supported by a substantial nature preserve

Mackay Park serves as the municipal recreation hub, while Flat Rock Brook provides a separate trail and environmental-education experience. Program availability, fees, resident eligibility, field permits and seasonal schedules should be checked through the current city registration system.

01

Mackay Park

Mackay Park is the city’s principal municipal recreation complex. The Parks & Recreation office is located at the Gatehouse, and the park supports multiple athletic and community uses.

Mackay Park ↗

02

Parks & Recreation ↗

03

Check: reservations, lights, league schedules and renovation closures.

Current recreation programs ↗

05

Youth and adult programs

Program registration ↗

06

Flat Rock Brook trails ↗

07

Nature and education programs

Flat Rock Brook offers changing environmental education, family, school and seasonal programs. Trail conditions, closures, dogs, bicycles, parking and program registration should be checked before a visit.

Current programs ↗

08

Neighborhood parks and open space

Depot Square/Veterans Memorial Park, Crystal Lake and smaller neighborhood facilities add public space beyond Mackay Park. Amenities and permitted uses differ by location.

Property check: confirm field, event, water, path and parking conditions near the specific home.

Community activity

Parades, markets, fireworks, performances and seasonal municipal programs

Englewood’s activity calendar extends beyond recreation leagues. Recent official calendars and archives include a Memorial Day parade, fireworks, market programming, movies and other seasonal events, while bergenPAC, the library and Flat Rock Brook maintain separate calendars. Verify every annual date and format before publishing it.

01

Memorial Day ceremony and parade

Englewood held an official Memorial Day ceremony and parade in 2026. Route, assembly point, timing, road closures and weather procedures should be checked each year.

City event notice ↗

02

Summer fireworks celebration

City archives and calendars document Englewood fireworks celebrations. Do not present the date, location or continuation as guaranteed; weather and annual approvals can change the program.

Special events ↗

03

Seasonal farmers market

Recent Bergen County tourism listings place a seasonal Englewood Farmers Market at Depot Square Park. Confirm the current year’s operating dates, vendors and weather policy.

Bergen County farmers markets ↗

04

Englewood Night Market

Recent city programming has included a Night Market with food, vendors and community activity. Treat dates and format as annual-verification items rather than permanent promises.

City calendar ↗

05

Movies and recreation events

City notices regularly publish seasonal movie nights, sports clinics and recreation activities. Registration, residency, rain dates and locations can change.

Recreation programs ↗

06

bergenPAC performances

bergenPAC maintains a year-round calendar of concerts, comedy, dance, family programming and other live performances in downtown Englewood.

Performance calendar ↗

07

Arts education and summer programs

The Performing Arts School at bergenPAC offers changing arts education and summer programming. Ages, tuition, auditions, schedules and locations should be confirmed directly.

Arts education ↗

08

Library and nature-center calendars

The library and Flat Rock Brook add lectures, children’s programs, workshops, clubs and seasonal events. These calendars are useful for assessing the community routine beyond major festivals.

Verification: use the organizer’s current calendar before publishing a date.

09

Road closures and event parking

Downtown events, parades and performances can temporarily change traffic and parking. Buyers near event corridors should review city notices and experience the area during an active event.

Test: guest parking, driveway access and alternate streets.

Municipal, cultural and healthcare resources

A regional hospital, public library, performance center and established city departments

A complete relocation review should include healthcare, emergency alerts, library access, cultural programming, sanitation, tax records and municipal contacts—not only schools and commuting.

Englewood Public Library

The library at 31 Engle Street provides borrowing, digital resources, study and meeting space, and programming for different age groups.

Open resource ↗

bergenPAC

The Bergen Performing Arts Center is a downtown performance venue with a separate arts-education program and changing event calendar.

Open resource ↗

Englewood Health

The main hospital and medical campus at 350 Engle Street is a major local healthcare resource. Buyers should also map preferred specialists, urgent care and pediatric providers.

Open resource ↗

Flat Rock Brook

The nature center combines public trails with environmental education, memberships, volunteer opportunities and seasonal programming.

Open resource ↗

City Hall and departments

Use the city site for the clerk, tax, engineering, building, public works, police, fire, health, senior and emergency-management resources.

Open resource ↗

Emergency notifications

Review city alert and emergency-management resources for road closures, severe weather, service interruptions and public-safety notices. Call 911 for an active emergency.

Open resource ↗

Public Works and sanitation

Collection schedules, recycling, yard waste, leaf pickup, snow operations and service changes should be confirmed through the current city calendar and notices.

Open resource ↗

Property and tax records

Confirm current assessment, taxes, open balances, permits, violations, zoning history and public records with the applicable city departments and closing professionals.

Open resource ↗

Property due diligence

Englewood requires different checks for estates, older homes, condos, co-ops and multifamily properties

The city’s housing range is a strength, but it prevents a one-size-fits-all review. Buyers should combine municipal files, current zoning, a survey and title work, appropriate physical inspections, association documents where applicable and written feasibility analysis for future plans.

01

Zoning and buildable envelope

Confirm zoning district, permitted use, setbacks, height, floor-area limits, building coverage, improved lot coverage, parking and accessory-structure rules for the exact block and lot.

Englewood City Code ↗

02

Permit and approval history

Reconcile additions, finished basements, bedrooms, baths, decks, pools, generators, fences, driveways, retaining walls, kitchens and accessory structures with municipal records and final approvals.

Building & Code Enforcement ↗

03

Residential resale CCO

Englewood states that homes sold in the city must be inspected and that the seller must receive a Certificate of Continued Occupancy before transfer. Confirm current filing, lead time, fees and correction responsibility.

CCO guidance ↗

04

Older-home systems

Many Englewood homes warrant detailed review of electrical service, wiring, plumbing, sewer lateral, roof, masonry, chimneys, drainage, underground tanks, lead-based paint and asbestos-containing materials.

Scope: use licensed inspectors and specialists appropriate to the property.

05

Basements and water management

Review prior water entry, sump pumps, backup power, foundation conditions, grading, leaders, swales, catch basins, sewer backups and neighboring runoff. Dry conditions during one inspection are not conclusive.

Stormwater resources ↗

06

Flood and environmental mapping

Review FEMA mapping, applicable state environmental information, drainage features, waterways, prior claims and insurance availability. A property outside a mapped special flood hazard area can still have site-specific water risk.

FEMA Flood Map Service Center ↗

07

Slope, rock and retaining structures

Elevated and East Hill-area sites may involve rock, steep driveways, terracing and retaining walls. Review structural condition, drainage, permits, boundaries and replacement access before closing.

Future work: excavation and access can materially affect project cost.

08

Large-estate improvements

For pools, courts, gates, generators, elevators, guest spaces, extensive lighting and security systems, confirm approvals, service history, replacement planning and ongoing operating expense.

Do not assume: an existing improvement proves that expansion or replacement is permitted.

09

Condo, co-op and multifamily review

Confirm ownership form, HOA or maintenance charges, assessments, reserves, insurance, parking, storage, pets, leasing, move procedures, litigation and building financials. Co-ops may also require board approval and review of any underlying mortgage.

Compare: total monthly carrying cost rather than purchase price alone.

10

Traffic, events and institutional adjacency

Evaluate Route 4, Palisade Avenue, Dean Street, Engle Street, Grand Avenue, schools, the hospital, bergenPAC and park activity at the hours relevant to the household.

Test: interior sound, driveway access, guest parking, emergency vehicles and event closures.

11

Survey, title and boundaries

Obtain a current survey and title review for fences, walls, driveways, encroachments, easements, shared access, utility locations and discrepancies between physical use and recorded boundaries.

Luxury-property focus: verify every gate, court, pool fence and accessory structure.

12

Future renovation feasibility

Before relying on an addition, pool, subdivision, accessory unit, major grading or redevelopment concept, obtain written zoning, engineering, architectural and utility analysis based on current law and the actual survey.

2024 Master Plan ↗

Recommended record set

Request these before relying on the property description
