A New Way of Luxury Living – Now in Bergen County
A New Way of Luxury Living – Now in Bergen County

Finding a new home can feel overwhelming. From choosing the right location and price range to finding the amenities and lifestyle you want, there is a lot to consider. At Lennar's The Ridings at Oakland, many of those decisions are already made easier for you. With a desirable location, thoughtfully designed homes and amenities, it's a community designed to help you love where you live.

Located in Bergen County, The Ridings at Oakland is a brand-new luxury townhome community for all ages, offering premium on-site amenities. This year alone, it has welcomed over 40 new homeowners.

Oakland is a small, quaint town in North Jersey—Lennar knew that this was an ideal spot for people to call home. "Location is one of our biggest advantages when it comes to The Ridings," says Dana Romano, Lennar's New Jersey and New York Division President. "Bergen County sits directly across from New York City, so it gives our buyers the ability to have a suburban lifestyle while they remain connected to the city."

Walkable to schools including Dogwood Hill Elementary School, Valley Middle School and Ramapo High School, The Ridings at Oakland offers a convenient location for growing families. Set in a welcoming suburban setting, the community is also just minutes from premier shopping, dining and entertainment, making it easy to enjoy everything the area has to offer.

"We look at all of this when we're looking to purchase a piece of ground—location, schools and lifestyle components," says Romano. "This area provides us with the ability to have all the suburban conveniences with that quick access to a major city."

The amenities that The Ridings at Oakland provides are a major perk. These include a swimming pool, clubhouse and fitness center, where residents can have time for relaxation, fun and socialization with others in the community.

"At The Ridings we offer our homeowners a private community center and pool right on property," Romano says.

A lot of times when people are looking for a new home, they fall in love with a model and are immediately directed to the design center, needing to then put 10-20% of options in. With Lennar's Everything's Included® program, buyers have all the necessary essentials built into their home at no extra cost.

"This platform helps the process by making it a lot simpler," says Romano. "We're giving you all these desired home features included—beautiful kitchens, upgraded appliances, quartz countertops—and you're not making hundreds of design center decisions."

With Lennar's experience dating all the way back to 1954, buyers have no problem trusting a company that has successfully helped deliver over 80,000 homes each year.

"At Lennar's The Ridings at Oakland you're not just buying a beautiful new home," Romano says. "You're buying the confidence that comes with knowing who's built your home, what's included and what happens after you move in and make it yours."
