63 Hiawatha Trail Medford, NJ 08055

Real Estate is all about location and this home is truly a little slice of heaven! Tucked away at the end of Hiawatha Trail before the walking bridge to 3 Beach and on the school courtesy route, this home is nestled among a canopy of trees on a branch/lagoon of Ballinger Lake; the setting is spectacular. Hop into a canoe to fish or paddle over to Ballinger and grab a bite to eat at P J Whelihans or simply take in the glorious views and serenity! Or if you prefer, sunbathe or fish right off the brand new deck or soak up the sun reading a great new novel! In the wintertime, Ballinger is one of the first lakes to freeze so ice skating is a real treat in the cold winter months. The location is AMAZING as you are steps away from 3 Beach across the walking bridge! As you approach, take note that this is a dead end street ? this nearly 2,000 square foot charmer is set back nicely from the street on the .214 acre lot with driveway parking for approximately 4 cars. The grounds are all natural (low maintenance) with a mixture of lush green moss and grass. Inside, there are two wings - one with two bedrooms and a full bath and there is a master bedroom with full bath on the opposite wing. The kitchen is in the center of the home and features abundant cabinetry and a full appliance package. Take note of the exciting wood ceiling newly installed in the kitchen! To the left of the kitchen is a great room (which serves as the dining room and living room) with attractive built in cabinetry and natural oak hardwood floors. A lovely wood-burning fireplace is perfectly located so you can enjoy a fire in the winter while soaking up the beautiful views through the sliding glass doors. The current owner contracted for a brand new deck with railings and it is AMAZING! A storage shed is conveniently located lakeside for storage of rafts, etc. There are 2 nice size bedrooms and a full bath to the left of the great room. In the hallway are pull-down stairs to the partially floored attic. A hallway leads to a sunroom addition that overlooks the rear waterway. A utility closet here is home to the York gas heater and Rheem gas hot water heater. This home even boasts central air! The family room features newly installed plush beige carpeting and a passage door leads to a utility room where the well water conditioning/softening equipment is housed. Note: the washer and dryer which are now in the kitchen could easily be moved into this space if desired. A doorway leads to the master bedroom and it is incredible! It has the feeling of being in a spa and WOW, check out the master bedroom closet! The master bath has just been renovated and it is exceptional! The owner is a member in good standing with the Medford Lakes Colony and the Colony Certificate/Bond will transfer to the lucky new laker. Be sure to walk the grounds as the setting is breathtaking. There is a shed for storage of lawn and lake equipment, the brand new deck overlooks the waterway and the location is so so private. Located on the "school courtesy route", there is literally no automobile traffic and it is a stone's throw away from 3 Beach. Gas Heat, Central Air, Public Sewer, Well Water, Brand New Deck, Master Bedroom with newly renovated master bath and the list goes on! Medford Lakes is home to the annual Canoe Carnival and Lakers enjoy a lifestyle where every day is like a holiday! Medford Lakes....where the living is easy and this is lakefront living at its finest! Don't Miss Out on This One! It's a true Charmer!
