Edgewater, NJ homes for sale & real estate.
Browse homes for sale in Edgewater, New Jersey. A Hudson River waterfront borough on the New Jersey Gold Coast, Edgewater is defined by luxury condominiums and townhomes with sweeping Manhattan skyline views, NY Waterway ferries to the city, and a River Road corridor lined with waterfront shopping. Its housing tells that story: high-rise towers and mid-rise communities such as Independence Harbor, City Place, and Mariner's Landing line the riverfront, while a scattering of older homes climbs the Palisades to the west.
Edgewater runs along the Hudson on River Road (County Route 505), with Route 5 climbing the Palisades and the George Washington Bridge and Lincoln Tunnel both a short drive away. It has no train station, but the NY Waterway ferry from the Edgewater landing reaches Midtown at West 39th Street and, via Port Imperial, Brookfield Place and Wall Street, and NJ Transit buses on routes 158 and 156 serve the Port Authority. Prices reflect the views and the commute: entry condos begin in the $400s to $600s, most waterfront condos and townhomes run from about $600,000 to $1.2 million, and the largest new-construction and penthouse units climb well past $1.5 million.

Edgewater stretches for miles along a narrow shelf between the Hudson and the Palisades, so the choice here is mostly about which waterfront community and which view you want. The riverfront is a chain of named developments - the gated Independence Harbor, the mixed-use City Place with its shopping and dining, Mariner's Landing, Admiral's Walk, Hudson Harbour, and the Waterside condominiums - most lined up along River Road with the Hudson River Waterfront Walkway connecting them. Above the road, older single-family homes climb the wooded Palisades to the west. Compare Edgewater with its Gold Coast and Palisades neighbors below before you choose.
Edgewater's history is a story of industry turned into waterfront luxury. Incorporated in 1894 as the Borough of Undercliff, the borough spent much of the twentieth century as a working waterfront lined with major plants - the Ford Motor Company assembly plant, an Alcoa aluminum mill, and the Lever Brothers works, where Dove soap was developed - along with coffee, sugar, and chemical operations. As that industry left, the shoreline was redeveloped from the 1980s onward into the high-rise and mid-rise condo communities that define Edgewater today, anchored by the Hudson River Waterfront Walkway and by Mitsuwa Marketplace, the largest Japanese marketplace in the country, on River Road.
Compared with its neighbors, Edgewater offers the most direct Hudson waterfront and ferry access on this stretch of the Gold Coast, where Fort Lee and Cliffside Park sit atop the Palisades above it. Buyers cross-shop Edgewater against those towns when they weigh a clifftop tower view against direct riverfront access and a ferry at the door, and against Fort Lee when they want the closest approach to the George Washington Bridge. Its concentration of new-construction luxury condos and its waterfront shopping give it a distinct, resort-like character among its neighbors.
Life, commute, and work-life balance in Edgewater.
Edgewater draws buyers who want to live on the water with the Manhattan skyline across the river and a ferry commute at the door. A resident in a River Road tower can walk to the NY Waterway landing for a ferry to Midtown or Wall Street, catch an NJ Transit bus on route 158 or 156 to the Port Authority, or drive minutes to the George Washington Bridge or Lincoln Tunnel, and still be home for a walk along the Waterfront Walkway at sunset. That combination of direct waterfront living, a ferry commute, and skyline views is the essence of the Gold Coast lifestyle.
The work-life balance here is low-maintenance and amenity-rich rather than yard-and-garage suburban. Life centers on the water and on River Road: the Waterfront Walkway for running and strolling, waterfront restaurants and shopping at City Place and the Edgewater Towne Center, and the destination groceries of Mitsuwa Marketplace and Whole Foods. Many buildings offer pools, gyms, and concierge service, so daily life leans on building amenities and quick city access. For buyers coming from Manhattan, the appeal is a similar lifestyle with more space and a skyline view; for those coming from a traditional suburb, it is trading the yard for a balcony over the Hudson.
The trade-offs are real and worth weighing. Edgewater is essentially one long corridor, so River Road traffic can be heavy at peak times, condo living means homeowner-association fees and building rules, and the borough has no train station, so commuters rely on the ferry, buses, and bridges. Waterfront buyers should also review flood-zone and insurance considerations for riverfront buildings. Buyers who prioritize the views, the ferry, and the low-maintenance lifestyle accept those trade-offs readily; those who want a yard and a walk-to-train commute look inland instead. Either way, it is the water and the skyline that keep Edgewater in constant demand.
