Unassuming from the street, and an easy walk from Oakhurst Village and College Avenue, it boasts sprawling comfort and luxury, including 4 bedrooms and 3 baths on the main and second stories and a bright basement in-law suite with 2 more bedrooms and a 4th bath. The main floor’s enormous open floor plan includes 2 gas fireplaces, a dining room for 8-10, and a giant kitchen apportioned with granite counters, a 6-seat island, and a stainless steel double oven.

The main level also features two bedrooms and a full bath. Upstairs is a breathtaking master suite, spacious enough for a full bedroom and living room set, boasting a tranquil bathroom with a Jacuzzi-style soaking tub, glass shower with two shower heads, and a double vanity. Another large bedroom and a full bath round out the top floor. Downstairs from the main level is a one-car garage and a private entrance to the in-law suite, featuring a full kitchen (granite counters and stainless appliances), a living room/dining room, and two bedrooms. The suite’s bathroom has a glass shower and modern tile treatments. There’s fresh paint and modern updates throughout. Come be amazed at the luxury and wealth of space, all tucked away on a quiet, tree-lined street in Oakhurst.
