Property Description
Step back in time without sacrificing comfort in this enchanting and unique home. 492 Oaklawn Avenue, an early 1700's time capsule boasting the charm of a historic Colonial home with modern updates! This antique gem features 1 cozy bedroom on the main floor, a formal dining room, main floor laundry, well-appointed bathroom, and two modular rooms upstairs, spread over 1460 square feet. The home radiates warmth with multiple working stone fireplaces, perfect for those romantic evenings. Featuring exposed hand-hewed beams, skylights and beautiful hardwood floors, the home is quintessential New England with some contemporary nuances. The updated wiring ensures safety, while replacement windows and a new roof add to its many improvements. Relax in your private outdoor space replete with patio for your morning tea, surrounded by a fabulous yard ideal for gardening or entertaining.

This is a truly special property - solid and updated, the home is suited beautifully to its next steward who appreciates the beauty of the past but conveniences of today.
