Easement or property is not the question as Pturner, and others, state: If it is on this side of the white stakes then play it where it lies. If on the wrong side of the white stakes then leave it be unless the homeowner has a sign like "you may retrieve your ball". But never, never hit from the other side of the stakes.

The actual question, as posed, is very simple to answer as there is only one answer.
