The View Is the Lead
Fort Lee has a lot of homes with a glimpse of something. This one has the full frame. The Bluff Section sits on the Palisades edge, and the east-facing exposure at 1115 Arcadian Way puts the George Washington Bridge, the Midtown skyline, and the Hudson River in a single window from the primary suite.
The suite is built around that. Tray ceiling, dark hardwood floors, and a separate sitting room with a gas fireplace. The renovated marble spa bath carries a freestanding soaking tub set on a polished marble step, a frameless walk-in rainfall shower with body wand, a double vanity with quartz counters and undermount sinks, modern wall sconces, and book-matched marble flooring.
Views are the one feature a renovation cannot add later. Everything else in a house can be changed. This is worth weighing when you compare this listing to anything else in the price band.
A Kitchen Built for Cooking
The kitchen was specified by someone who actually cooks. Poggenpohl Wenge cabinetry with frosted glass uppers, antibacterial Caesarstone counters, and a white quartz waterfall island with a prep sink and breakfast bar.
Appliances run to a Wolf six-burner gas range with double oven, a Sub-Zero French-door refrigerator, a full-height built-in wine column, an induction cooktop set into the island, a microwave drawer, and a stainless range hood. A sliding glass door opens to a covered deck with an electric awning.
The kitchen flows directly into the family room, which carries a wood-burning fireplace with a stone surround and three windows framing the rear yard. That is the everyday center of the house.
The Rest of the Floor Plan
The two-story foyer sets the tone: limestone stairs, custom ironwork railing, Venetian plaster walls, a crystal sphere chandelier, and a horseshoe-shaped second-floor balcony. Custom Wenge doors run throughout, with crown molding, recessed lighting, central air, central vacuum, and gas hot water baseboard heat.
Level | What is there |
|---|---|
First floor | Living room with multi-window exposure, formal dining room with mirrored built-in china cabinet and Doric column detail, family room open to the kitchen, fifth bedroom, mosaic-tile powder room, laundry room, and a home office with a stacked stone accent wall |
Second floor | Primary suite, second bedroom with ensuite bath, third and fourth bedrooms sharing a Carrara-marble hall bath with frameless glass shower and arabesque tile feature wall |
Walkout ground level | Tiled recreation room with daylight windows, den, full bath, side-entry mudroom, and direct access to the attached three-car garage |
The fifth bedroom on the first floor matters more than most buyers expect. It handles a live-in arrangement, extended visits, or a ground-floor sleeping option without touching the second floor.
Outdoor Space and the Corner Lot
The corner position gives the property room on three sides. A paver circular drive handles arrival at the front. In back, a raised wood deck with an electric awning sits above a multi-level paver patio, with a half-court basketball setup, a fully fenced yard, and mature evergreen privacy hedges on three sides.
Two chimneys and a multi-gabled tile roof finish the exterior. Fenced and hedged on a corner lot is a specific combination in Fort Lee, where lot lines run tight and privacy usually costs a premium.
What the Numbers Mean for a Buyer
Annual real estate taxes run approximately $37,000. At this price point in Bergen County that is a normal figure, but it belongs in the monthly carrying cost from the first spreadsheet, not the last. A $2,599,000 purchase carries roughly $3,100 per month in property tax alone before principal, interest, and insurance.
If you are selling something else in Bergen or Hudson County to fund this, the sequence matters as much as the number. I covered the contract-to-close timeline in what happens after you accept an offer, and the listing timing question in when to list your home. A current home valuation on your existing property is the honest starting point.
The Bluff Section and Getting Around
The Bluff Section delivers east-facing Manhattan and Hudson River sightlines from a Palisades-edge street, which is the defining feature of the neighborhood and the reason pricing there behaves differently from the rest of the borough.
Practically, the location puts you minutes from the George Washington Bridge entrance ramp and NJ Transit bus service to the Port Authority Bus Terminal, with Route 4 close by. Fort Lee Historic Park and Palisades Interstate Park sit nearby for open space, and Hudson Lights Town Center covers dining and everyday retail.
More on the borough is in the Fort Lee town guide, and other current inventory is on the Fort Lee homes for sale page.
