Christie’s International Real Estate Group announces the record-breaking sale of Chateau de la Roche, an iconic two-acre, seven-bedroom manor in Alpine, NJ, which sold for $17.7M. This is the highest-priced residential sale in the Rio Vista community in Alpine and the highest price residential sale in Alpine since January 2022. It establishes additional records across the state as the highest residential sale in the past three years in the New Jersey Multiple Listing Service (NJMLS).
The property was listed by Denise Albanese, Realtor Associate at the Christie’s Mahwah-Saddle River Sales Gallery. A trusted leader in New Jersey’s ultra-luxury real estate market, Albanese’s deep involvement with Chateau de la Roche dates back to its very conception—having played the lead role in the home’s custom interior design elements, including the materials, colors and furnishings selected, and ultimately the home’s marketing and long-term positioning in the market.
Amenities include a 15-seat theater, billiard room, two bars, wine cellar, two indoor plunge pools, sauna, steam room, conservatory, and more. Featuring seven bedrooms and 10.5 bathrooms, Chateau de la Roche is nestled in one of the most exclusive zip codes in the nation and 30 minutes from Manhattan. Built in 2017, this modern architectural masterpiece seamlessly blends Old-World grandeur with contemporary sophistication. With its commanding presence, top-tier amenities, and unmatched privacy, it stands as one of the most coveted estates in Bergen County.
“This home has been an extraordinary journey,” said Albanese. “From its inception, every detail was carefully considered to create a truly world-class residence. It’s been a privilege to bring the home to market and now to secure such a historic result for our clients, Alpine and for New Jersey.”
Combining unmatched local insight with the global reach of Christie’s International Real Estate, Albanese and her team implemented a highly strategic marketing plan, presenting the estate to an elite domestic and international audience. This unique synergy of regional expertise combined with global exposure was essential in attracting the right buyer and executing this record-breaking transaction.
On the buyer side, the purchaser was represented collaboratively by Richard Orlando and Jason Pierce of Prominent Properties Sotheby’s International Realty, and Taylor Lucyk of Christie’s International Real Estate Group.
