About 5527 Oakland Avenue
Step inside and prepare to fall in love with this incredible kitchen! Completely remodeled in 2015, it features soft-close cherry cabinetry, granite countertops, a huge center island, pot filler, Sub-Zero refrigerator, Bosch dishwasher, and an impressive Wolf appliance package including range, griddle, microwave and double oven. The kitchen opens to a spacious family room with cathedral ceilings, rustic beams and a large fireplace. Beautiful acacia wood floors flow through the dining room, foyer and hallway. The interior has been refreshed with wallpaper removed and fresh paint, giving the home an updated feel while maintaining its character. The living room and main-floor den offer flexible living space and could potentially be converted into a main-floor primary suite. Upstairs you'll find four bedrooms, convenient second-floor laundry and a spacious primary suite with jetted tub. Two HVAC systems provide comfortable heating and cooling throughout the home. Outside, enjoy the large lot from the deck or brick patio, or relax in the approximately 3-year-old saltwater hot tub while taking in the view of the spacious backyard. A shed with electricity and an overhead door provides additional storage and workspace. The three-car garage includes a separate heated third stall with 220V power—perfect for a workshop, mechanic or hobbyist. Major exterior improvements include a new roof on both the home and shed in 2024, along with new 6" gutters and leaf guards. The shutters and front door have also been freshly painted for added curb appeal. An unfinished basement provides plenty of storage and even more possibilities for future living space. Open house Sunday 9/27 10-12 pm, but seller reserves the right to accept an offer prior to open house.
