A four-bedroom, 5,300-square-foot town house has giant windows that frame sweeping views of New Jersey and the New York City skyline. It has an elevator, marble floors, multiple decks and an indoor pool and garden.
It’s also got an asking price — just under $1 million — that is way out of line with the typical home price of around $300,000 in Clifton, N.J.
“The average person looking in Clifton is not looking for a house like this,” said the listing agent, Kaitlyn Barbagallo of Weichert Realtors in Clifton. “It’s a really unique home to the area.”
While Barbagallo is sure she’ll find a buyer for the house, real estate agents say that selling a high-end property in a middle-price town can be a challenge. Many well-off buyers aren’t interested in living in a middle-of-the-road town.
