518 E Oakwood Drive East Lansing, MI 48823

*PHOTOS COMING 2/5* This beautifully maintained brick colonial sits in the heart of the beloved Glencairn/Chesterfield Hills neighborhood, where tree lined streets, welcoming neighbors, and year round charm create one of East Lansing's most treasured communities. The location is truly exceptional—just a short walk to Michigan State University, multiple parks, the East Lansing Public Library, local restaurants, coffee shops and miles of bike trails. It's the kind of place where you can leave your car at home and enjoy everything on foot. Inside the home unfolds with an understated elegance; you'll find hardwood floors, abundant natural light, and open, airy living spaces. The spacious living room and adjacent den - each both now enhanced with luxury gas fireplaces - create two distinct and comfortable spots to relax or entertain. The kitchen—fully remodeled with high-end finishes including quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a cozy built in booth—has become the natural gathering place for family and friends, complemented by an updated mudroom, first-floor laundry and a refreshed half bath. Upstairs, the spacious primary bedroom includes hardwood floors, dual walk in closets, and a charming window alcove. Two additional bedrooms—nearly identical in size—offer generous closets and natural light. No expense was spared on the fully remodeled main bath with custom cabinetry, lighting and tile work. A door off the landing leads to a rooftop balcony overlooking the backyard, while a drop down ladder provides access to the full attic. The lower level has been transformed into a warm, flexible extension of the home. Fully waterproofed, equipped with a sump pump (2022), and finished in 2023—including the home's third fireplace—it offers tall ceilings and valuable additional living space for movie nights, hobbies, or guests. Outdoor living is equally inviting. The private, fully -fenced backyard has a secret garden feel; with new dual paver patios, thoughtful drainage improvements, and a storage shed added in 2025—it's a peaceful hideaway while the front porch and brick walkway is the perfect place to enjoy the lively neighborhood. Lovingly cared for and extensively updated, this home offers historic charm, modern comfort, and an unbeatable location. It's ready to welcome its next owners into a community and lifestyle that are hard to match.
