Home of the Week: 183 Oxbow Rd.

By Michele Taranto 

This charming ranch is a great example that the town of Wayland offers a versatile ranch of residential properties to fit many budgets and lifestyles. At nearly 1,000 square feet of living space and primarily single-floor living accommodations, this home presents a highly efficient floor plan mirrored with an affordable financial proposal. It does, however, still represent one of the most prevalent features in Wayland homes, and that is, a generous lot. This property is surrounded by over an acre of picturesque land in a highly sought after neighborhood.

Once prospective homebuyers finish admiring its scenic grounds, they enter a lovely, cozy home just the perfect size for an individual, couple or small family. The first level consists of a welcoming and comfortable living room with a fireplace, built-ins and bay windows, a modernized kitchen with upgraded cabinetry, Corian countertops, tiled flooring and recessed lighting, an all-season paneling dining area, the master bedroom and a full bath.

The finished lower level resourcefully utilizes the full footprint of this home and expands its living options with a bonus room that would make an ideal home office, bedroom or family room, an exercise room and laundry center.

Other significant renovations within this home include a recently re-shingled exterior, an updated 200 amp electrical service and new windows.

This well maintained and loving home is the perfect hideaway for prospective homebuyers looking to enter the Wayland real estate market or who value the economical and labor advantages of an efficiently-designed and manageable residence. Its acre-plus lot of land is a supplemental bonus and does offer viable inspiration for expansion for those who require or desire additional space. This is a great and rare opportunity to purchase a great home for today and the future.
