About this home
Step into timeless elegance with this beautifully preserved all-brick Italianate Colonial, built in 1881 and rich with Oberlin history. Immaculately cared for, this one-of-a-kind home blends historic charm with thoughtful modern updates throughout. Offering 4 to 5 spacious bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and TWO full kitchens, this home provides exceptional versatility. The main remodeled kitchen has been designed to honor its heritage, including custom hardwood cabinetry, a central island, quartz countertops, and all-new appliances. A newly renovated main-floor bathroom and laundry room, refinished hardwood floors in multiple rooms, and a replaced main plumbing stack and lines reflect the level of care and attention this home has received. The property is equipped for comfort and efficiency with two furnaces (installed in 2016 and 2019) and two central AC units (both new in 2019). Electrical updates add further peace of mind. Outside, you'll find a 2-car garage, two additional outbuildings—including a 32x48 steel building with electric and a car lift, perfect for a workshop, hobby space, or storage—and the original granary, thoughtfully converted into a functional workshop. The walk-out basement is clean, bright, and dry—a rare and valuable feature in a home of this age. The beautifully landscaped grounds include a picturesque pond and a gazebo, creating a serene and private retreat just minutes from the amenities of town. This is not just a home—it's a piece of Oberlin's history, lovingly preserved and ready for its next chapter.
