About this home

Welcome to 1209 Oakwood Avenue — where historic charm meets everyday livability in the heart of the highly sought-after Brookwood Historic District (historic guidelines apply). This 1.5-story home with a basement offers 5 bedrooms and 2 full baths, giving you the space you need with the character you’ve been searching for. Fresh paint throughout brightens every room while preserving the cozy, timeless feel that makes historic homes so special. The layout is flexible and functional — whether you need guest rooms, creative space, or room to grow. The standout 5th bedroom easily transforms into a home office or sunroom and features a striking stone accent wall crafted from authentic Biltmore stone — a rare architectural detail that instantly sets this home apart. Downstairs, the basement offers valuable storage and future expansion potential. Outside, you’ll appreciate parking for up to 7 vehicles that can be gated for a fenced yard for pets. Also has a beautiful peach tree! This is an incredible find in a historic neighborhood and perfect for gatherings or multi-driver households. No HOA. Sellers are offering a home warranty plus open to offering closing costs — adding real value from day one. If you’ve been waiting for a home with soul, space, and financial incentives — this is it. Historic character. Modern flexibility. Rare opportunity. UPDATE: LIVING ROOM WALLS HAVE BEEN PAINTED! This property also listed for rent MLS #: 4382197.

A rough rule — actual qualification depends on your full debt picture, credit, and the lender. John can introduce you to lenders he trusts.

Numbers are a directional estimate. Actual monthly cost varies by lender, credit, taxes assessed at closing, and insurance carrier. This is not a loan offer or pre-approval.
