Property Details

Looking for a project? No, really—a project. Welcome to 16 Trestle Road in Medford, where four acres, a garage with a skylight you didn't ask for, and a house that hasn't seen human life in 14 years are waiting for the bravest of buyers. Let's get this out of the way: No, it's not livable. The basement walls are doing their best impression of the Leaning Tower of Pisa (propped up by timbers), the furnace is a lawn ornament at this point, the roof and windows need replacing, and the insulation has gone AWOL. Also, some woodland creatures have taken up residency—so at least you won't be lonely during renovations. We don't know if the well or septic work. The plumbing and electric are questionable at best. The garage? Yes, it has a hole in the roof—but hey, that just means free ventilation. Now, the good: you get 4 acres of land, a structure you can reimagine (or replace entirely), and direct access to ATV and snowmobile trails right out your back door. This is an awesome spot for someone with serious carpentry skills, rehab ambitions, or the kind of optimism usually reserved for HGTV hosts. And before you ask: No owner financing. No rent-to-own. This one is for the cash-in-hand, tool-belt-on person who's ready to roll up their sleeves and make something amazing out of a diamond-in-the-very-rough.'
