A commuter town with a big personality
Just 13 miles from New York City and 7 miles from Newark, Nutley doesn’t feel like a commuter town. With an active event calendar and plenty of local restaurants to choose from nestled in the heart of town, Nutley has its own identity while keeping the option of commuting to NYC open. With green lawns and plenty of parks, Nutley residents who work downtown can come home to a lush world that changes its colors with the season. “Nutley is comprised of estates that were broken down,” says Realtor Matthew De Fede with Realty Executives Elite Homes. “The town was developed at the turn of the century, and parts of those estates have become the park system.”
The homes in Nutley combine modernity with suburban charm.
Nutley homes are mostly single-family residences, each unique and reflecting its own character.

Nutley's pizzeria's and Middle Eastern restaurants
“Nutley has some of the best pizza on the Northern Seaboard,” De Fede says. “We probably have more pizza than Italy has.” Luna Wood Fire Tavern, one of Nutley’s pizza places, specializes in wood-fired pizzas but also offers plenty of other Italian favorites, like fusilli arrabbiata and rigatoni Bolognese.

While Nutley isn’t far from Meadowlands Sports Complex or MetLife Stadium for concerts and sporting events, there’s plenty happening right in Nutley, like the Nutley Farmers Market. From June through October, Nutley’s Sunday market features everything from locally-grown produce and baked goods to flower and homemade cheeses. Residents can stop and sit at the picnic tables to listen to the week’s live music.
