More Luxury Dwellings In The Works In Bergen County

BERGEN COUNTY, NJ — Plans are in the works to build even more luxury dwellings in Bergen County.

Just as the ribbon is cut on high-end rentals in Hackensack and Franklin Lakes, construction on yet another luxury apartment-home community is "well underway" in Wood-Ridge, according to a Monday announcement.

Bergen County's newest "Class-A development" is slated to welcome tenants by early 2024, the developer said in a release.

Rosera Wesmont, located at 300 Wesmont Drive, will offer a mix of open-concept studio, and one-, two- and three-bedroom layouts, and 35,000 square feet of amenity and ground-floor retail space, developer JCMLiving said.

"(The community) raises the bar for suburban living... and marks the extraordinary evolution of this pivotal Wood-Ridge neighborhood from a pre-war-era industrial zone to a beautiful residential neighborhood with easy commutability,” JCMLiving's Aaron Polinsky said.

“We are excited about this final and most luxurious residential phase... which will culminate in a development in which the entire community can take pride," Polinsky said.

The announcement comes as Hackensack formally opens an amenity-packed, resort-style community, and just weeks after Franklin Lakes officially opened a similar — what the developer called — "ultra-luxurious" complex, Patch reported.

It is unclear what prices will look like at Wood-Ridge's new 295-unit property, though its correlatives in Hackensack and Franklin Lakes are starting rent at about $2,100 and $3,300, respectively.

Rosera Wesmont's developer said the forthcoming community will feature the "latest in lifestyle technology advancements and world-class building amenities."

"In addition to in-unit designer elements and fixtures, smart technology, oversized windows and private balconies, (this) community... will include a multi-level, hotel-style lobby; 13,000-square-foot pool; sundeck and courtyard with outdoor games; fitness and sport simulator centers and a 480-space parking garage with direct access from every level of the building," an apartment spokesperson said in the release.

The community also includes "next-generation Class-A individual and co-working spaces," and multiple conference and meeting rooms — each incorporating "refined touches" for tele-commuters, the spokesperson said.

"Get ready for an unparalleled living experience at Rosera (Wesmont)," the apartments' Facebook page said.
