From affordable Cape Cods to pricier new-traditional homes
Homebuyers looking in West Caldwell will find a variety of housing styles, and these homes don’t stay on the market for very long. “Homes here go very quick,” Frank LaMorte, Broker Associate at Lattimer Realty says. “There’s a lot of demand from city buyers looking to move to the suburbs.

New-traditional homes also line some streets and are a bit pricier, going for between $900,000 and $1.1 million. Along most neighborhood streets, residents can find maple and oak trees and sidewalks on at least one side, making West Caldwell a walkable community. West Caldwell is also a safe neighborhood as it was given a Crime Score of 2 out of 10 by the CAP Index, well below the national average.

Cool off at one of two community pools
Residents looking to cool off from the hot summer can do so at one of the two community pools in the neighborhood. Both Westville Avenue and Cedar Street pools have basketball courts, playgrounds and offer swimming lessons. For smaller children, Cedar Street Pool has a separate kiddie pool. At Memorial Park, next door to the Cedar Street pool, visitors can play tennis with friends or kick around a soccer ball. “Grover Cleveland Park is a big attraction,” Giermanski says. “They have a fishing derby every May. They also do a ton of other events throughout the year, like summer concerts.” Grover Cleveland Park sits just south of the neighborhood but allows residents to play various sports and has a playground for children.

A family-owned and operated restaurant, Brook Tap House's menu features fresh and locally grown ingredients from New Jersey, international and local craft beers, an extensive wine list and custom cocktails. The Original Pancake House has been serving the West Caldwell community since 1968. Longtime favorites include apple pancakes and miniature versions of a Dutch baby pancake.
