Pequannock Township · Real Estate
Real Estate & Housing
Pequannock combines established postwar neighborhoods, older homes, condos and townhomes, senior housing and newer infill within a compact township. The two-community geography—Pequannock and Pompton Plains—matters less than property-specific factors such as flood exposure, zoning, utility service, condition and proximity to Route 23 or local commercial corridors.

Use these figures as context, not valuation. Single-family homes, condos/townhomes and age-restricted/continuing-care housing serve different markets. A specific property's flood status, condition, legal use and location can produce large differences.
Housing Types
Single-Family NeighborhoodsMuch of the township consists of detached homes built during and after the major 1950s growth period.
The GlensThe planned residential development added hundreds of townhouses, coach homes and condominium apartments beginning in the early 1990s.
Older HousingPrewar and early suburban homes remain in both Pequannock and Pompton Plains, especially near older road corridors.
Cedar CrestLarge continuing-care retirement community that adds senior-oriented housing outside the conventional resale market.
Rental HousingCondos, apartments and small-scale rentals are present, though the township remains predominantly owner-occupied.
Commercial / Mixed UseRoute 23 and Turnpike properties may involve commercial zoning, office or redevelopment considerations.
Flood Due Diligence Is Essential
Pequannock sits within a river-and-wetland system shaped by the Pequannock, Pompton and nearby Passaic waterways. The Township maintains a dedicated Flood Resilience Officer and floodplain resources because flood risk is a significant property-specific issue.
2025 Effective FEMA MapsThe Township posts the current effective FEMA panels and a property-search tool.
Elevation & MitigationPequannock reports extensive flood-mitigation work, including home elevations and property acquisitions.
InsuranceFlood-insurance requirements depend on lender and mapped risk; coverage can still be relevant outside mandatory zones.
Ask About HistoryFlood-map status does not replace questions about prior water intrusion, drainage, sump pumps, sewer backups and claims.
