Set on just over an acre in Roanoke's highly desirable Oak Hill neighborhood, this beautifully updated 1941 residence offers the perfect blend of timeless character and modern comfort. With more than 4,250 square feet, five bedrooms, and four-and-a-half baths, this exceptional home is surrounded by mature trees and distinctive architecture in one of the city's most established neighborhoods - where spacious home sites and unique residences create a setting that's anything but ordinary. Located less than a mile from Towers Shopping Center and just minutes from downtown, Carilion, shopping, dining, and schools, you'll enjoy the convenience of city living with the privacy and space that are increasingly hard to find. Thoughtfully renovated while preserving its original charm, the heart of the home is the extensively redesigned kitchen, where walls were removed to create an open, welcoming space ideal for everyday living and entertaining. New hardwood flooring enhances the kitchen, family room, and upstairs primary suite, while the remaining hardwood floors have been professionally refinished to highlight the home's enduring craftsmanship.
One of the home's greatest strengths is the variety of spaces it offers for both gathering and quiet retreat. A beautifully appointed room with custom built-ins and a gas fireplace provides a warm, intimate atmosphere - ideal as a library, bourbon room, music room, or simply a peaceful place to enjoy conversation with family and friends. Nearby, the heated sunroom is filled with natural light and offers a comfortable spot to enjoy your morning coffee, work from home, read a favorite book, or simply relax at the end of the day.
Recent improvements include new windows, gutters, storm doors, custom blinds throughout, updated lighting, and a new water heater. The upstairs primary suite has been enhanced with newly added central air, while the main-level primary suite features a new mini-split system and new carpeting for year-round comfort. The upstairs guest bath has also been tastefully updated.
Outside, the expansive grounds offer a rare sense of privacy within the city limits. The property includes a detached storage building and ample room for outdoor entertaining, gardening, or simply enjoying the open space.
Homes of this caliber rarely become available in Oak Hill. Rich in character, thoughtfully updated for today's lifestyle, and ideally located near everything Roanoke has to offer, this is a home designed to be lived in, shared, and cherished for generations.
