About this home
What if the home that needs updating is actually the one that gives you the most freedom? Set on over 5 acres in Madison County, 2681 Oak Park Road offers a rare mix of privacy, craftsmanship, usable space, and the chance to create a country property that feels completely your own. The home offers over 1,700 square feet of above grade living space and 1450 square feet on the lower level. The original brick section dates to 1962 and two later stone additions in the 1980’s and 2000’s that add character and room to spread out. Inside, you will find two bedrooms on the main level, additional finished space in the walkout lower level, two full baths, a kitchen, living room, dining room, and family room, along with handcrafted wood paneling and trim that give the home a warmth you do not often find in newer construction. The kitchen and baths are ready for renovation, which gives the next owner a chance to choose the finishes, layout, and style that fit their vision instead of paying more for updates chosen by someone else. The front bedroom has the potential to add an attached bathroom using the walk-in closet with plumbing access underneath and a private stone entrance and patio. About one third of the basement is at walkout grade, adding flexible space for hobbies, guests, work, storage, or future improvements. Outside, the property has a blend of 1.5 to 2 acres of open yard and garden area, with the rest of the land mostly wooded for a peaceful and buffered setting. The brick and stone exterior, handcrafted interior details with locally sourced wild cherry, white pine and hemlock, and impressive stonework add a sense of lasting character. The stonework includes a roughly 75-foot doubled, stone retaining wall along the driveway built by an expert stone mason who also completed the stonework for the two additions. The stones were sourced locally as well as gathered during decades of multi-state trips and include a carved stone found in the mountains and set above the lower-level entrance. The property includes three older outbuildings and an approximately 800 square foot cinder block workshop with loft and aluminum roof incorporating local poplar wood that adds valuable space for tools, projects, equipment, storage, or creative uses. Detached one-car garage with a full basement below adjoins the parking area. The architectural shingle roof, updated electrical service, functional plumbing, central air, and room to expand the private septic system provide a solid starting point, while the older oil furnace, windows, smaller septic system, kitchen, baths, and cosmetic finishes offer clear areas for future improvement. This is not a property for someone looking for every detail to already be finished. It is a property for someone who sees value in land, privacy, solid construction, useful buildings, and the freedom to shape a home over time. Whether you picture it as a full-time country home, a private retreat, or a place where weekends are spent working on projects, enjoying the woods, gardening, or simply getting away from a busier pace, this property offers the space and setting to make that vision real. If you have been waiting for a property with acreage, character, custom stone/wood craftmanship and room to create something special, this may be the opportunity you have been looking for. Schedule your private showing and come see the potential for yourself. Property is sold As IS and cash or conventional financing required (VA/FHA/USDA will not work).
