Property is move-in ready.
Although built in 1940, the property has undergone significant renovations. The kitchen features high-end Wolf and stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and newly painted cabinetry. The interior shows well-maintained hardwood floors, recessed lighting, and a recently updated bathroom, placing it firmly in the move-in ready, well-maintained category (5-15 year renovation range).
The home offers exceptional flexibility with a dedicated bonus space upstairs and a lower-level family room that can serve as a fourth bedroom, ideal for multi-generational living or a home office.
Located in the sought-after Upper Oakmore area, the property is just moments away from Montclair Village, local markets, and dining, offering a high convenience factor for the region.
The residence features a rare level rear yard and professionally landscaped gardens, providing a private and tranquil setting for outdoor entertaining and relaxation.
While the local elementary school is well-regarded, the assigned middle and high schools carry lower ratings, which could impact long-term appeal for families prioritizing academic performance.
As a 1940s-era structure, the property may necessitate more frequent maintenance or modernization of core systems compared to newer builds in the area.
Welcome to 1980 Oak Crest, a home that invites you to slow down, settle in, and savor. Tucked among the leafy streets of Upper Oakmore, this welcoming home offers space to breathe, room to gather, and a sense of privacy that makes it feel like a true retreat. From the moment you step inside, there’s an easy warmth to the home. Sunlight fills the living room, drawing your eye to views of the beautifully landscaped front garden. The inviting dining room feels made for gathering — long dinners with friends, holiday celebrations, or those spontaneous evenings that stretch well past bedtime. The kitchen is equally welcoming, with solid-wood cabinetry, distinctive green granite countertops, and a charming built-in banquette. It’s the kind of space where mornings begin slowly over coffee and conversations happen while dinner comes together. Upstairs, three spacious bedrooms offer comfortable retreats, along with a versatile bonus space overlooking the backyard. A cozy reading room, a playroom, an artist’s space — the possibilities are yours. And there’s more downstairs. A flexible family room or fourth bedroom that opens directly to the private, level rear yard, plus a beautifully updated bathroom, laundry and storage, and access to the garage. This is a home designed not simply for living, but for living well — with spaces to gather, places to retreat, and a wonderful connection to the garden and the seasons. Plus, you're moments away from Montclair Village, Rocky's Market and the restaurants and shops on Park Blvd.
