Single Family Home For Sale in Mahwah, NJ
MLS# : 26015826
PROPERTY DETAILS
PROPERTY DESCRIPTION
Tucked at the end of a quiet dead-end street in one of Mahwah’s established residential neighborhoods, 37 Nilsen Avenue is the kind of opportunity buyers wait for: a flat, level acre with the space, setting, and upside to create something truly special. The existing home needs work, but the canvas is exceptional - an oversized detached garage with room for up to four cars, a vintage pool cabana structure that hints at the property’s past and future potential with a private, usable property surrounded by mature trees. Renovate, expand, or explore new construction possibilities, all subject to approvals. With access to Mahwah’s public school system, including Joyce Kilmer, Ramapo Ridge, and Mahwah High, this is a compelling project for a buyer, builder, or visionary end user ready to bring new life to a rare piece of Mahwah.

About Mahwah, NJ Real Estate Market
The naming of Mahwah sources inspiration from the Lenape language word ‘mawewi’, which means ‘a place where paths meet’. The central area of Mahwah originally was known as Hohokus Township till 1849. In 1944, an act passed by New Jersey Legislature joined the parts of Orvil Township, Upper Saddle River, Allendale and Ramsey to form the municipality of Mahwah.
Since it is the biggest municipality in Bergen County in terms of area, Mahwah is one of the best places to live in, with both small-sized homes and big-sized homes available for sale in this town of New Jersey. There are several state and county parks in Mahwah, such as Darlington County Park, Campgaw Mountain Reservation and Ramapo Valley County Reservation. Out of these, the Campgaw Mountain Reservation hosts a few campgrounds and ski slopes. The Ramapo rivers flow through the western part of the municipality.
There are several places from Bergen County which surround the municipality of Mahwah, such as Oakland, Allendale, Franklin Lakes, Wyckoff and Upper Saddle River. Apart from these, Mahwah also shares its borders with other places like Ringwood from Passaic County and Hillburn, Airmont, Suffern and Ramapo from Rockland County.
