Diverse community with classic styles
North End features some of the area’s more recent developments, though the neighborhood still has historic roots dating back to the post-automobile boom of the 1920s. The area was a particularly popular spot for immigrants as far as Ireland and Portugal, making the area a melting pot that still reflects its diversity to this day. The community’s homes, mostly comprised of Colonial Revivals and similar traditional styles, range in price from $375,000 to $700,000 – though it’s worth noting that the area includes many multifamily houses as well, with these prices ranging from $500,000 to $1 million. The market in the area is becoming increasingly competitive. “North End is just a very, very desirable neighborhood,” says Victor Nascimento, Realtor with Premier Properties. “You’re just a block away from everything you need.”
North End offers a charming and unique experience for homebuyers seeking to move to Elizabeth.

Commuting made easy
