Peace and privacy right by the city
Just 12 miles from New York City, Clifton’s Rosemawr neighborhood is more than just a bedroom community even though it allows residents to return to a quiet community after a day in the city. Beyond that, the neighborhood is a reflection of Clifton as a whole: diverse, welcoming, and full of charm. “Rosemawr is definitely one of the areas that people really want to be,” says Frances Rosado, broker with Real Broker LLC and longtime resident of the area. “It’s a highly walkable area with a lot of access to some of the most important places in Clifton.”
Rosemawr is a quick commute away from New York.

Established homes with personality
Tidy sidewalks give way to stairs and pathways that lead up to charming classical-style homes, most of which have sizable yards and room for gardening. Even compared to other Clifton neighborhoods, Rosemawr manages to feel particularly serene – the streets see little through-traffic, and the area feels more private as a result. Home styles reflect the old-school aesthetic of the area, with Cape Cods, split levels and Colonial Revivals being most common. The established homes reflect years of careful renovation and personality. “Many of the older homes have been modernized through renovations and additions,” says Chava Kagan, real estate agent with Dwell Realty. “People buy homes they think are starter homes and end up being forever homes – it’s a place people are happy to stay for a long time.” Prices range from $500,000 to $1.3 million, with larger Colonial Revivals and split levels being on the higher end. Condominiums and townhouses are also available, with prices ranging from $275,000 to $500,000.
