About This Home
As of May 2014GO JUMP IN THE LAKE! No, that's not an insult; it's an invitation, because that's what you'll be able to do all summer long when you call 53 Hiawatha Trail "home." This cute rancher offers all the conveniences of one-story living with a bucolic, quiet setting, and views of the lake from the living room. This almost-1500 square-foot home has trees for privacy in the back yard and low-maintenance front yard. After all, when you have access to all the lakes and beaches of historic Medford Lakes, who wants to be a slave to the yard? Once inside, you'll find hardwood floors, lots of natural light from the many windows, a lovely updated eat-in kitchen, and three spacious bedrooms. There is a bonus room--the perfect study--and a year-round sun porch across the back of the home where you can while away the hours in complete solitude while reading, studying, or perhaps listening to music. The many upgrades make this truly a home in move-in condition: from the energy-efficient replacement windows, to granite countertops, Leaf Filter gutter screens, and a roof that was replaced just 4 years ago. The new (Oct 2012) oil tank is above ground. Best of all, the sellers have priced this at the perfect entry point for 1st-time home buyers or "empty nesters." Don't wait: now you can enjoy the pride of owning a beautiful home just 200 yards from the sandy beach---and for less than you would pay in rent!
