Classic Oakley Charmer | History, Heart & Room to Live - Built in 1935, this Oakley gem blends timeless character with modern updates—offering a rare combination of history and generous space both inside and out. Lovingly maintained through the years, and carefully improved, this property blends character with peace of mind. It has a story to tell, and it’s ready for its next chapter. Recent upgrades include a new HVAC system, roof, and gutters (2024), a brand-new energy-efficient water heater (2026), fresh interior paint, and a water filtration system already in place. The work has been done—so you can simply settle in and enjoy. What truly sets this home apart is the space—inside and out. Situated on two lots, the property offers an expansive yard filled with established landscaping, blooming flowers, and a beautifully cultivated garden. The large fenced backyard is uniquely divided into two sections with multiple access gates, creating flexibility for recreation (wait until you see the mini ninja obstacle course, giant play set and trampoline), pets, gardening, or quiet retreat. Inside, the main level offers a comfortable and functional layout with a spacious living room, well-designed kitchen, two bedrooms (including one with double closets), and a full bathroom with double sinks. A screened-in porch overlooks the backyard, creating a peaceful spot to start or end your day. The home’s original charm remains, now enhanced for comfortable everyday living. Downstairs, the finished basement adds exceptional versatility with four additional large rooms, a full bathroom, laundry area, and extra storage. The space is finished, heated, and includes venting for a wood stove or kiln—ideal for artists, creative pursuits, hobbies, or flexible living needs (Ceiling height is below 7’, so not counted as sqft.). Adding even more value, everything conveys with the home, offering a truly move-in-ready opportunity. Rich in history and character, generous in space and flexibility, and centrally located, this home offers a rare combination of warmth and function. Filled with space to grow, create, and gather, this home is ready for you to help write a new chapter.
