The Assessment Is Handled

This is the detail that separates the unit from other entry-level condos. The building carries a special assessment of roughly $45,000, and the seller will pay it in full at closing.

That means the buyer takes title with no assessment balance attached to the unit, which removes the single biggest question mark buyers usually have about an older building. The monthly HOA is $316.

Renovated From the Studs

The interior is turnkey, not just refreshed. The kitchen was rebuilt with new cabinetry, new countertops, a new sink and fixtures, a new electric range, a new refrigerator, and new light fixtures, and new sliding glass doors lead from the kitchen to a private balcony.

The bathroom was fully renovated with new tile walls, a new vanity and sink, a new mirror with accent lighting, and new fixtures throughout. A new bedroom window is being installed, and a large walk-in coat closet greets you at the entry. The open layout makes the 674 square feet live larger than the number suggests.

Parking, Systems, and the Building

The practical pieces are all in place. The unit includes one garage parking space, which is a real advantage in a dense, transit-connected town, plus the private balcony off the kitchen.

The condo sits on the third floor of a secure-access mid-rise building. It has gas baseboard heat with a built-in air conditioning unit, and the building has an on-site washer and dryer room.

Broad Avenue and the Commute

The location works for both commuters and buyers who want walkable everyday convenience. NJ Transit Bus Routes 165 and 166 run along the Broad Avenue corridor with direct service to the Port Authority Bus Terminal in roughly 38 to 46 minutes, the George Washington Bridge approach is about 4.5 miles away, and the Edgewater Ferry Landing is a short drive east for NY Waterway service into Midtown and downtown Manhattan.

Broad Avenue itself is one of Bergen County's most active commercial corridors, known for its concentration of Korean-American restaurants, cafes, and specialty grocers alongside a broader mix of dining and retail. It is a walkable, dense, transit-connected stretch in a county where that combination is not common.
