Seller says it's pre-1910.

The Terhune Homestead was located at 450 River Street.
Below is a Library of Congress image from the 40's and a picture of what's there now.

I may be wrong about the location.
There are more pictures, including interior shots at the Library of Congress site here (http://memory.loc.gov/cgi-bin/ampage?collId=pphhphoto&fileName=nj/nj0200/nj0237/photos/browse.db&action=browse&recNum=0&title2=Terheun%20House,%20450%20River%20%26%20Anderson%20Streets,%20Hackensack,%20Bergen%20County,%20NJ&displayType=1&itemLink=D?hh:13:./temp/~pp_dUwT::@@@mdb=fsaall,brum,detr,swann,look,gottscho,pan,horyd,genthe,var,cai,cd,hh,yan,lomax,ils,prok,brhc,nclc,matpc,iucpub,tgmi,lamb,hec,krb).
There are also drawings available at the LOC site. This one shows the location which looks like Johnson Park:

This is also from the LOC:
-
If the plot plan and the north arrow are correct, the Terheun House would have been located near the northeast corner of the intersection of Anderson Street and River Street which is now the Johnson Park property rather than on the southeast corner of the intersection in the vicinity of the carwash.

I believe the terheun house was roughly located on the sears parking lot. it was torn down to make way for the Hackensack pool, which was filled in to make parking lot for sears.
