Ohio, Montgomery County, Oakwood, USA

"The Little Woods House" in Oakwood is a stunning modern home on 1.3 acres, thoughtfully designed by a local architect, completed in 2014. Sustainability was a key focus in its design, incorporating large openings and framed spaces to seamlessly connect with nature. A full 30' multi-slide glass door opens the south side of the home to a spacious entertainment deck, offering tree-lined views.
Inside, the open floor plan flows effortlessly from the kitchen to the living area, highlighted by Douglas Fir wood ceiling and hardwood floors. The kitchen features high-end appliances, concrete countertops, and a large island as an inviting centerpiece where family and guests will love to gather. A wood-burning stove, both a striking focal point and an efficient heat source capable of warming the entire home.
The primary suite is conveniently located on main level, complete with jacuzzi tub and a steam shower. An additional main-level bdrm, currently used as an office, includes built-in cabinetry. A modern floating staircase leads to the lower level. Lower level is an industrial architectural design, offering a spacious great room, perfect for a family or theater room. 3 generously sized bdrms--one with an en-suite bathroom along with an additional hall bath, mechanical room and storage closet complete the lower level.
Every aspect of this home was designed with intention. The size strikes the perfect balance, eliminating unnecessary space that would otherwise increase energy use and costs. Unique green spaces were preserved, and a pollinator garden was added to enhance the home’s eco-friendly footprint.
This property also boasts numerous smart home features. It’s a rare opportunity to feel immersed in nature while enjoying the convenience of city life; downtown Dayton and essential amenities are just minutes away. Oakwood itself is a vibrant, walkable community with parks, trails, a library, a grocery store, boutiques, and more, all within an easy bike ride or stroll.
