About this home

Come home to a gambrel Dutch Colonial on a fenced, level lot in Oxford, where the day starts on the wood deck and ends around the pool. Step inside to an easy, open flow. The living room, dining area and kitchen connect, with an island and breakfast bar seating, so you stay part of the conversation whether you are cooking or hosting. A first floor bedroom adds flexibility, and the extra room off the entry makes a perfect office, study or playroom. Upstairs, the primary bedroom and a second bedroom give everyone room to spread out. The partially finished lower level keeps its exposed beam character and adds a game room, a rec room, a full bath and two rooms currently used as offices, perfect for working from home. Outside, you will love the patio, the new 2026 above ground pool, the paved driveway and the attached garage. Solar panels were installed in 2023 and are leased, see disclosures. Close to parks, shopping and walking trails, with easy highway access.
