Property details
About 608 Cheshire Dr
This 1 story home is an absolute gem, and a rare find in beautiful Oakridge! Situated on a large lot on the corner of a cul-de-sac with a side load garage, there is no through traffic in this tranquil, quiet neighborhood. Another benefit of the cul-de-sac corner is the abundance of green space created by two side by side cul-de-sacs, providing privacy and pretty views. The property is also directly across the street from a sidewalk access to the subdivision's community pool, tennis courts and gazebo! Charming and well maintained, this home has a great layout with a cathedral ceiling in the main living areas, offering a great sense of space and light. The foyer opens to a large living room with a cozy fireplace and picture window overlooking the backyard. The galley kitchen is outfitted with all newer appliances, including a GE electric range and refrigerator that were purchased in 2022, Whirlpool refrigerator, and microwave. Freshly painted prior to listing, the kitchen has brand new lighting and hardware as well. A formal dining area completes the public rooms, and has patio doors leading to a deck with built-in seating. The dining room also has a brand new light fixture, and this area could be used as a home office, play area, or whatever suits your needs. The first floor laundry includes a washer and dryer that were new in 2020, and there are also laundry hookups in the basement if preferred. A spacious primary bedroom with an en suite full bath is situated in the quiet back corner with backyard green space views. This bedroom was just painted and a new mirror and lighting was installed in the bath. Two other bedrooms share a second full bath. There is room to expand the finished living space in the basement, which is plumbed and framed for a 3rd full bath, and would make a great 2nd family room if desired. New grading around the foundation was just completed by LKM in May, 2025. There's so much to love in this special home, and you can't beat the location!
