About 20 miles east of Philadelphia, Greentree is a quiet New Jersey community that lives up to its name. “It has beautiful tree-lined blocks and is convenient to major roadways,” says Day Lazala-Gordon, a sales agent with Berkshire Hathaway Fox & Roach Realtors who has worked here for four years. “The proximity to Philadelphia, the great schools and our walking trails are all big draws.” Greentree features a mix of late 20th-century homes alongside highways, making it easy to get around the Delaware Valley. Traffic can be heavy in the area, but turning off the main avenues is like flipping a switch from hectic rush hour to tranquil suburbia.
Greentree is a leafy New Jersey suburb about 12 miles from Philadelphia.

New Jersey Routes 70 and 73 are home to many shops and restaurants. “There’s a lot of chain restaurants. You name it, we have it.

Redstone is known for its steak and seafood dishes, while Brio Italian Grille serves a Tuscan-inspired menu. The Promenade at Sagemore is an outdoor mall with stores like Talbots, Loft and Jos. A. Bank. Big-box stores nearby include Kohl’s, T.J. Maxx and Walmart. Groceries are available at Trader Joe’s or Sprouts Farmers Market.
