205 Oakley St

About This Home

This modified American Four Square Specimen house had not traded hands in over 58 years until just recently in 2024. Originally designed and built for an esteemed Judge in 1918, this house espouses the hopefulness flowing through the country at the end of WW I. The soaring optimism and desire for opulence was an early precursor to the roaring 20's. Please see attached article for all of the elaborate architectural details recently highlighted by an esteemed local architect for The Talbot Spy. 205 Oakley in later and recent years served as 3 flats...one on each floor. We are now offering the spacious second floor apartment unfurnished for just $2200.00 a month. The new owners have updated the entire flat including, but not limited to, repainting the entire second floor walls, ceilings and floors, installing a brand new gorgeous kitchen complete with beautiful white cabinets, granite counters and stainless steel appliances. The second floor flat can be used as a 2-3 bedroom unit or as a grand 2-bedroom unit complete with living room, dining room, full bath, gracious kitchen and bonus room off the kitchen. Located just 2.5 blocks from the banks of the mighty Choptank, yet out of the floodplain and on one of the broadest, most prestigious streets in Cambridge, this is a prime piece of real estate that is now being offered as a very high-quality rental. Sited on .42 of an acre one can enjoy suburban living yet within a city context.
