North Saugus Condos for Sale

While Walden Pond in North Saugus is not the same Massachusetts body of water where Henry David Thoreau penned his seminal 1854 novel, it retains a serene atmosphere of its own within the Lynn Woods Reservation. The reservoir sits in the northeast corner of the North Saugus neighborhood, a landscape of suburban streets branching off Route 1. Locals are often just a mile or less from reaching Route 1 to dine out or shop at major retailers, and North Saugus is less than 20 miles north of Boston for commuters. “It’s like a city, but also sort of like a suburb at the same time,” says Julie Tsakirgis, a principal broker with Re/Max Property Shoppe and the Julie Tsakirgis Group. “It’s older; it has the Saugus Ironworks, so there is some history there. It does have access to the river, and that is where properties have become reborn. It’s kind of a mixture of everything for everyone.” But arguably the area’s biggest draw comes down to the old real estate maxim about location, paired with comparatively lower price points than what buyers will find in other areas in and around Boston. “The biggest thing is the accessibility to Boston and access to Route 1, and the affordability of homes,”
