Property Description
Welcome to 1321 Oakwood Avenue in DeKalb! This well cared for 3 bedroom, 1 bath home offers 1,240 square feet of comfortable living space on an impressive 0.73 acre lot, a rare find within city limits. The freshly painted interior is clean, bright, and move in ready, while the full basement offers tremendous potential with rough in plumbing already in place. Finish the lower level to nearly double your usable living space and create the rec room, additional bedrooms, home office, or entertaining area that fits your needs. Outside, you'll find a huge 3 car garage with plenty of room for vehicles, storage, hobbies, or a workshop. Newer roofing and siding provide peace of mind and help minimize exterior maintenance for years to come. A newer transferable solar panel system and back up Tesla generator adds another valuable feature for the next owner. The location adds even more to love. Enjoy being within walking distance of the new water park at Hopkins Park, while also being just minutes from shopping, restaurants, golf, parks, and much more. With a spacious yard, oversized garage, freshly painted interior, solid condition, convenient location, and significant potential to add finished living space, 1321 Oakwood Avenue offers a combination that is hard to find in DeKalb.
