Washington Township New Jersey Real Estate

The bedroom community of Washington Township offers a comfortable home to a significant number of commuters.  Nestled in the panoramic Pascack Valley, this community represents a popular choice for newcomers based on affordability of homes, excellent schools, and overall quality of life.  Although growth has definitely made an impact on the region, the preservation of towering trees and large parcels of land has retained a country feeling.  Older, stately homes flank more modest single-family housing for a pleasing selection.  The Garden State Parkway, Routes 17 and 4, bus service to New York City, and train service to Hoboken from Washington or to Manhattan from Westwood ensure efficient transportation.  Recreational amenities include a 126-acre conservation area, playgrounds, athletic fields, league sports, tennis courts, a private swim club, and an indoor ice-skating rink.
