Finding a condo or townhouse in Chatham NJ

Finding a condo or townhouse in Chatham NJ could be a challenging task, without reliable information.  But, no worries, this post will attempt to give you an overview - as seen from a Chatham resident and 15+ years of experience in real estate, home and condo sales in the Chatham area.

First, there are two Chathams:  Chatham Boro and Chatham Twp.  The Boro is the "village" with the NJ Transit Midtown Direct Train Station.  The Township is the "half-moon" around the Boro and features larger homes and properties than the Boro.  It is closer to the Summit NJ Transit Midtown Direct train station, which has non-resident parking available for those in the Township that need it.

In Chatham Boro there are not many condos and townhouses, but perhaps more variety. 

The condos at Chatham Court are converted garden apartments.  They were built in the 1940's with hardwood floors, brick exterior, smaller (1-2BR) but spacious condos.  Currently there are two condos for sale in Chatham Court, one in the low $200's and the other in the low $300's.

The Willows are beautiful, luxury townhomes that start in the $600's.  Spacious homes with attached 2 car garage, basements, these townhouses live like single-family homes and start in the $600's.  Currently there are 3 townhouses for sale.  Contact me for more information on these luxury homes for sale.

The Chatham Townhouses, Chatham NJ

 

 

The Chatham is right in the heart of Chatham Village, mere blocks from the train station with the infamous Midtown Direct Train to NYC, and steps from restaurants, shops and services, is our newest complex.  Built in 2006, these luxury townhouse-style condos are quite spacious and appointed with quality architectural details and ameneties.  These sell in the $800's to around $1 million.  There is currently only one townhouse for sale - just under $900K.  Contact me for listing information or to schedule a showing.

 

In Chatham Township, the choices for condos and townhomes is greater.  Contact me for info on any of these communities. 

Chatham Glen includes Briarwood, Heritage Greene, Coachlight and Sutton Woods.

Briarwood and Heritage Greene are very similar.  They consist of condos in buildings of 8-12 condos each with a common central entrance.  They were built in the 1980's and the sizes vary from 1 BR, 1 Bath to 3 BR, 2 bath.  All have balconies, garages and storage spaces in the buildings.  Many have been updated and offer a great location for the money.  Prices range from the low $200's to high $300's.  There is always a good choice of condos in these complexes and the grounds are beautiful!  Yes, they have outdoor pool and tennis courts!

Coachlight is in Chatham Glen also, built in the 1980's as well, but instead of condos, these are townhouses.  There are 2 bedroom, 1 bath up to 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths.  All have balconies and attached garages, many have been updated, some back to the Passaic River, and many have walk-out basements that nearly double the space.   As of today, there is only one townhouse for sale, as this is a small community with not too many units.  They sell for about $400k and up.

Sutton Woods is the newest of the Chatham Glen communities.  Built in the late '80s, early '90s, these are townhouse-styled condos with a large variety of floor plans and sizes.  Visit my website for Sutton Woods floor plans and more information about this fine community.  1 bedroom condos start in the mid-$200's and the 3 bedroom condos can get into the low $600's, depending on location and upgrades.  There are many 2 bedroom condos as well.  Sutton Woods also has several condos that back to the idyllic scenery of the Passaic River.  Obviously, these condos are very desirable.

Rosevalle Luxury Townhomes

 

 

 

The newest townhouse community in Chatham Township is Rosevalle.  This community of 56 luxurious townhomes, some of which are still under construction so you can actually buy a brand-new home that will provide as much space as your single-family home, with appointments of high quality and open floor plans.  These townhomes start right at about $1 million and are truly masterpieces.  There are currently 4 homes for sale ranging from just under $1 million to nealry $1.5 million.

Chatham is a very commutable town to NYC and Hoboken. Also it is very close to all the major pharmaceutical headquarters.  Commutable location is everything and Chatham has it.

Chatham does have location, location, location!  It also has top rated schools (almost always in the top 10 in NJ Monthly School Report), a charming and vibrant downtown, and lots of friendly people of all ages!
