Property Description
Gracious and beautifully proportioned, this pre-war three-bedroom side-hall Colonial in Oak View combines the character and craftsmanship of its era with the space and privacy of a substantial family-room addition. Set on an oversized lot, the property enjoys a deep, private rear yard and a welcoming patio, all framed by mature trees. Minutes from highly regarded Oak View School, this is a home with both pedigree and promise. The first Oak View homes were built with an attention to craftsmanship rarely found in today’s construction: rich old-growth hardwoods, tiled vestibules with cedar lined coat closets, French doors, handsome wood mantels with built-in shelving and formal dining rooms designed for generational gatherings. Bedrooms featured plenty of closets while walk-up attics offered generous storage and the potential for future expansion. Oversized baths had soaking tubs and separate, tiled stall showers. This home retains those distinctive details, including its original architectural character and f low, while offering the f lexibility of a spacious family room addition, a large eat-in kitchen with pantry, basement laundry room and half bath and a rare-for-the-1940s attached garage with in-home access. Recent improvements include furnace converted to gas in 2026; 200-amp electric service and split A/C, 2022; water heater, 2021; dimensional shingle roof, 2017; newer windows in the kitchen and family room.
