Built in 1920, a renovated colonial in Rutherford combines Old World charm with modern amenities. Walk across the wide front porch and enter a home with nine-foot ceilings, original stained-glass windows and inlaid hardwood floors. Upstairs, you'll find an updated bathroom featuring a claw-foot soaking tub.
In Waldwick , the Henry G. Ackerman farmhouse, built in 1902, is for sale. Completely restored, the historic home maintains its original birch wood floors and chestnut wood trims, along with a cedar wood deck and cedar siding.
A restored custom Craftsman Colonial in Glen Rock is in mint condition, featuring three original fireplaces including one in the master-bedroom suite. There are also two Fifties ranches: a mason-stucco ranch with five bedrooms and four fireplaces in Teaneck and an updated Tandy and Allen ranch in Hillsdale . The Tandy and Allen development encompasses the land between Hillsdale Ave., Saddlewood Drive and Pascack Road where 205 lots were laid out between 1948 and 1950 and comprised the farmland once owned by Henry Clendenny.
