3 Highest-Selling Homes in Union County (Past 6 Months)

Which Union County town has been commanding top dollar lately? If you guessed Westfield, you’re not alone. It’s often a top contender. But this season, the spotlight belongs to Summit, where luxury listings have been turning heads and setting records.

From timeless architecture to thoughtful renovations and tree-lined streets that seem straight out of a movie set, Summit continues to attract buyers looking for that perfect blend of sophistication and suburban charm. Let’s take a closer look at the three highest-selling homes in Union County over the past six months, all nestled right here in Summit.

73 Edgewood Road, Summit, NJ
Sold for: $5,525,000

Set on one of Summit’s most coveted streets, this elegant colonial combines classic craftsmanship with modern updates that make everyday living feel effortless. The home’s manicured gardens, custom millwork, and inviting layout make it a standout example of what continues to drive Summit’s high-end market.

141 Hobart Avenue, Summit, NJ
Sold for: $4,500,000

Timeless design meets elevated comfort in this beautifully restored property. From its grand staircase to its sun-drenched living spaces and resort-like backyard, it’s no surprise this home caught the attention of discerning buyers looking for both luxury and lifestyle.

57 Prospect Hill Avenue, Summit, NJ
Sold for: $4,600,000

Perched in one of Summit’s most desirable neighborhoods, this stately residence pairs classic elegance with a modern touch. Spacious, open interiors and an entertainer’s dream kitchen make it clear why Summit remains a destination for buyers seeking the best of suburban living.

These three homes highlight a growing trend in Union County: buyers are willing to invest more for location, character, and lifestyle. Whether it’s walkable neighborhoods, top-rated schools, or that sense of small-town charm just 30 miles from Manhattan, Summit continues to deliver on all fronts.

So, which one would you call home?

A lot of homeowners feel stuck right now.

They want more space, a different layout, or a home that fits their life today, but their current mortgage rate makes moving feel impossible.

This webinar is for families who feel rate locked and unsure what options actually exist in a sellers market. The conversation will break down what’s real, what’s not, and what people often assume without ever running the numbers.

Laura Deutsch will host a guided conversation and be joined by a trusted partner and lending professional to walk through real life scenarios, answer common questions, and explain how different strategies can impact monthly payments.

Topics covered:

  • Why a higher rate does not always mean a dramatically higher monthly payment
  • How equity, timing, and loan structure can change the math
  • When tools like temporary rate buydowns make sense and when they don’t
  • What realistic short term and long term strategies look like for families considering a move

This is not about convincing anyone to move. It’s about clarity.

If you’ve been thinking “we’re stuck” but haven’t actually looked at real numbers and real scenarios, this webinar will help you understand what’s possible so you can make informed decisions, not emotional ones.

You’ll leave knowing

  • Whether moving now is a hard no, a maybe, or more doable than you thought.
  • What questions you should be asking before ruling anything out.
  • What a smart next step would be for your situation.

Can’t attend in real time? Register to receive the full recording after the event. 

📅  Date:  Sunday, January 25th, 8:00 – 9:00 PM
📍 Place:  Online (link to webinar will be sent a few days prior)

A Real Estate Opportunity On Your Own Terms

Join me on Thursday, October 16th for an informative webinar where I’ll introduce a unique side hustle within the real estate world. It’s something you can start slowly now, fit around your current schedule, and later scale into something bigger if and when the timing is right.

(And FYI- you don’t have to work full time to do this and it’s not about flipping homes!)

This opportunity is designed to be flexible, simple to begin, and full of earning potential. You’ll be working directly with me, and I’ll guide you every step of the way so you never feel like you’re figuring it out alone.

This could be a great fit if one or more of the following resonate with you:

✅ Like the idea of passive income in real estate without becoming a full-time agent

✅ Are well connected in your community and/or or know a lot of people
✅ Are active on social media (or open to starting)
✅ Want a side hustle that can stay small or grow bigger depending on your goals

✅ Have an interest in real estate

There’s minimal upfront cost, no pressure to go all in (unless you choose to), and plenty of potential to turn your strengths into income.

If you’ve been looking for a flexible side hustle that can grow with you, this is your chance to see how real estate can open the door.

Event Details:

Date: Thursday, October 16th 8:00 – 9:00 PM

Place: Online (Link will be provided upon registration)

Cost: Free
