5328 Oceania Street, Oakland Gardens, NY 11364

This 3 bedroom, 2 bath home in the Bayside Hills section of Oakland Gardens offers a functional layout with a living and dining room combination, an eat-in kitchen with its own outside entrance, and a basement that adds flexible space for storage or recreation. Hardwood floors run through the home, with more hardwood under the bedroom carpets, and a partial attic and driveway parking keep the practical side covered.The major systems are in strong shape: the furnace and separate hot water heater are both approximately one year old, the roof is approximately ten years old, ductless air conditioning units handle the cooling, and the solar panels are owned rather than leased, so the energy savings stay with the house.Built in 1954 and held by the same owners for approximately twenty years, the home sits within Community School District 26, served by PS 376, JHS 74 Nathaniel Hawthorne, and Benjamin N. Cardozo High School. Annual taxes are $9,642 per the tax record. All together, a solid combination of space, updated mechanicals, owned solar, and low taxes in Oakland Gardens.
