Teaneck does not make the short list for most buyers searching Bergen County.
That is a positioning problem, not a reality problem.

River Road in Teaneck: The Corridor That Commuters Know
River Road is not a random street in Bergen County. It runs through one of the most commuter-focused corridors in eastern Bergen, adjacent to the Overpeck Creek and the township's waterfront edge, close to Route 4, and directly on the NJ Transit bus network that connects Teaneck to Midtown Manhattan faster than most of the county.
That commute matters for this listing.
The NJ Transit Route 167 I-95 Express operates through Teaneck with service to Port Authority Bus Terminal. The express variant reaches Port Authority in approximately 27 minutes from Teaneck Road stops — making this one of the fastest bus commutes in Bergen County to Midtown Manhattan. Route 157, the Teaneck-Ridgefield Park-New York local, also serves the township. View full NJ Transit schedules, route maps, and stop locations at njtransit.com.
For drivers, River Road sits minutes from Route 4 west to the George Washington Bridge and east toward Hackensack and Route 95. The GWB connection puts upper Manhattan within a 20-minute drive at off-peak hours.
The Teaneck Address: What the Township Delivers
Teaneck is one of Bergen County's most established townships. The housing stock along River Road and its surrounding streets reflects mid-20th-century construction with substantial lots, mature trees, and the settled character of a town that has been desirable for decades.
What this address delivers:
- NJ Transit express bus to Midtown Manhattan in approximately 27 minutes
- Route 4 and GWB access for drivers
- Proximity to Overpeck County Park — over 700 acres of trails, fields, and waterfront along the Hackensack River and Overpeck Creek
- Nearby access to Teaneck Road and Cedar Lane commercial corridors
- Established residential neighborhood with substantial lot sizes

The Case for $779,000 in Teaneck
At $779,000, 740 River Road sits in a range where Bergen County buyers are making real comparisons. Fort Lee, Englewood, Leonia, and Hackensack all have inventory around this number. What Teaneck offers that not all of those markets can match is the express bus commute and the township's established residential character at a price that has not yet fully caught up with comparable towns.
That gap closes over time in markets with strong commute infrastructure. It has been closing in Teaneck. Buyers who move ahead of that shift do better on the resale side than those who wait until the market reflects what was always obvious about the location.
Three bedrooms and two full baths at $779,000 on River Road — with a 27-minute express commute to Midtown — is a straightforward value proposition in this county.
