THIS is the lake house everyone waits for! Meticulously maintained and set on a sprawling, level waterfront property with sweeping views of Lake Musconetcong. Built in 1925, this home delivers something increasingly hard to find-- character, space, public utilities, natural gas, & direct lakefront living with NO HOA! Inside, original hardwood floors with intricate inlay details immediately set this home apart. Sun-filled living spaces capture the lake through walls of windows, while a wood-burning fireplace creates a warm centerpiece for the home. The updated kitchen & baths blend beautifully with its timeless character. With 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths & a flexible floor plan, there is room to live, gather & grow. And there's MORE! An unfinished walk-up attic & unfinished walkout basement offer incredible storage and future possibilities. Outside is where the lifestyle takes over: an enormous level yard rolls toward the water with an outdoor fireplace, patio, dock & Jet Ski dock-- ready for summer days on the lake. And yes gas-powered boats are permitted! Andersen hurricane windows, NEW furnace & central air (2025), NEW driveway, 1-car garage, 200-amp copper electric & generator hookup add peace of mind. Move-in Ready! Public water. Public sewer. Natural gas. No HOA. Gas-powered boating. Lakefront. Not just a house with a view-- this is a home built around the lake.
