This three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bathroom corner townhome occupies a corner position in Palisades Park, New Jersey, within a self-managed community that carries no special assessments. The 1,730-square-foot residence spans three levels, beginning at ground-floor entry with a tiled foyer, a coat closet, and a rear bedroom with two closets and its own thermostat. It is a space equally suited to guests, a home office, or flexible use.
The main living level opens into an L-shaped living and dining room defined by hardwood floors, high ceilings, and an east-facing bay window that fills the space with morning light. A wood-burning fireplace anchors the room, flanked by recessed lighting and windows on two exposures. It is the advantage of a corner unit. The adjacent kitchen features a gas range, ceramic tile floors and backsplash, double sinks, stainless steel appliances, and a microwave-convection oven, with a dedicated laundry room housing a full-size side-by-side washer and dryer.
Upstairs, the primary suite offers vaulted ceilings, a walk-in closet, and an en-suite bath with double sinks, a standalone shower, a jacuzzi tub, a skylight, and a linen closet. A second full bathroom on this level includes a tub and linen closet. Throughout the home, central air with a Nest thermostat and gas baseboard heat ensure year-round comfort. The living-level dining area opens through a sliding door to a west-facing wood deck overlooking a landscaped common lawn: a private outdoor room for the warmer months.
The single-car garage features an electric opener and direct interior access. The monthly HOA fee of $200 covers common-area maintenance; there are no special assessments pending. The community is self-managed, translating to responsive local control rather than distant property management.

Commute · Manhattan & New York City
Commute to NYC
125 Roosevelt Place sits in a practical commuter pocket of Bergen County, within walking distance of NJ Transit and a short drive to the George Washington Bridge. Here is how the options compare.
NJ Transit Bus 166
The Bus 166 stops on Grand Avenue, a short walk from the property, and runs direct to the Port Authority Bus Terminal in Midtown Manhattan. Local and express variants (166X via I-95, 166T via Turnpike) operate on weekdays, with express departures at limited peak times (NJ Transit, October 2026).
Scheduled travel time from Grand Avenue stops to the Port Authority Bus Terminal, with weekday service frequency, per the NJ Transit 166 timetable, October 2026. Bus 165 also serves Broad Avenue (NJ Transit, October 2026).
Driving: George Washington Bridge
The George Washington Bridge is about 4 miles from Palisades Park by road, roughly a 5 minute drive (Rome2Rio, October 2026). Route 9W and Route 46 connect to the bridge approaches and onward to the Lincoln and Holland Tunnels. Drive times vary with traffic; rush hour adds the most time.
Distance from Palisades Park to the George Washington Bridge by road and drive time (Rome2Rio, October 2026). GWB toll: cashless, E-ZPass or Tolls by Mail (Port Authority of NY and NJ, October 2026).
Bridge Plaza Park-and-Ride in Fort Lee
Drive about 5 minutes north (Rome2Rio, October 2026) to the Bridge Plaza bus terminal in Fort Lee, where express NJ Transit buses run to the Port Authority Bus Terminal with a shorter bridge crossing (NJ Transit, October 2026). Park, board, and ride.
Drive time from Palisades Park to the Bridge Plaza terminal in Fort Lee (Rome2Rio, October 2026). Metered and daily parking available at Fort Lee municipal lots.
NY Waterway Ferry
Two ferry terminals serve nearby towns: Edgewater Ferry Landing and Port Imperial in Weehawken. NY Waterway runs weekday commuter boats to Midtown West 39th Street and Downtown, with the Edgewater to Midtown crossing taking about 20 minutes.
Crossing time and one-way fare from Edgewater Ferry Landing to Midtown/W. 39th Street (NY Waterway route schedule and fares, October 2026). Weekday commuter service; limited weekends.
The bottom line: For a daily Midtown commuter from 125 Roosevelt Place, the Bus 166 is the simplest door-to-door option: walk to Grand Avenue, board an express or local, and step off at Port Authority 45 to 55 minutes later (NJ Transit timetable, October 2026). For off-peak flexibility, the George Washington Bridge is about 4 miles away by road and connects to upper Manhattan (Rome2Rio, October 2026). For a guaranteed seat and a view of the skyline, the NY Waterway ferry from Edgewater or Weehawken is a weekday commuter option (NY Waterway, October 2026).
