Mountain Lakes is one of Morris County's most distinctive communities — a small residential borough built around a chain of spring-fed lakes, known for its historic Hapgood-style homes, top-ranked schools, and a genuine small-town feel just 30 miles from Manhattan. Romila's Weichert office is located right here in Mountain Lakes, and she was named the office's Top Producing Agent in 2025.
The borough is almost entirely residential — no commercial strips, no through-traffic — organized around Mountain Lake, Wildwood Lake, Birchwood Lake and several smaller lakes with private beaches, boating, and a strong club culture. Many homes are original 1910s–1920s Hapgood craftsman builds with modern renovations, alongside newer luxury construction. Residents get lake rights, a tight-knit community calendar, and one of New Jersey's most celebrated small school districts.
Mountain Lakes High School consistently ranks among the top public high schools in New Jersey, and the district's Lake Drive School for deaf and hard-of-hearing students is nationally recognized. Strong schools are a major driver of long-term home values here.
Mountain Lakes is a low-inventory market — only a handful of homes are typically available at any time, and well-priced listings move quickly. Homes commonly range from the $700Ks for smaller properties to well over $2M for renovated lakefront estates. Working with an agent who knows the borough's lake rights, historic-home considerations, and off-market opportunities matters more here than almost anywhere else in the county.
Romila's recent Mountain Lakes results include 30 Powerville Rd — sold for $1,650,000 at 12% above list price in just 10 days — plus sales at 17 Crystal Rd ($2.43M), 9 Fox Hill Rd, 54 Cobb Rd, 1 Warwick Rd, and lakefront property on Glen Rd. As a Mountain Lakes-based agent, she frequently knows about homes before they hit the market.
