Positively presidential
In the neighborhood of Oakdale, a walk through history is as simple as a stroll down the streets. Within this section of the almost 400-year-old Boston suburb of Dedham, residents pass multiple streets named after former U.S. presidents—from John Adams to James Madison and Abraham Lincoln to Ulysses S. Grant. “The streets are picturesque,” says Sarah Sally, real estate agent with Donahue Realty and longtime resident of the area. “They’re filled with homes that carry a real stateliness to them.” Considered the most densely populated neighborhood in the town of Dedham, Oakdale is a popular choice for reasons beyond its proximity to Boston—though being less than 20 miles from the city doesn’t hurt.

Renowned local architecture means classic charm
Homes in the Oakdale neighborhood are classic constructions, with many originating in the early/mid-20th century. “Oakdale is well known for its Bailey houses,” says Sally. “There big, beautiful structures full of history.” Named after the famous Dedham architect Robert Morris Bailey, these homes were constructed for himself, relatives, and friends. Apart from these, the most common styles in the neighborhood are Colonials and Cape Cods. Being suburban in its makeup, lots in Oakdale are relatively spacious—with well-kept yards offering privacy that balances nicely with its highly walkable streets and series of connected sidewalks. Prices for a 3-bedroom home tend to range from $585,000 to $750,000—though the more historic Bailey homes and larger estates can go for much more. “Those homes for go $1 million to $2 million easily,” says Sally.
Oakdale has many single family homes throughout the neighborhood.

Take a tour of local history
During free time, residents can take a quick excursion to Fairbanks Park for some outdoor fun. “The facility is great,” Sally says. “They have baseball fields there, and a big playground, which is nice,” she added. In the winter months, those looking to celebrate the season can head to nearby Wigwam Pond for ice skating. In the summer, meanwhile, residents can visit Oakdale’s historic Endicott Estate. This massive, 25-room Colonial-style home was constructed in 1904 by the founder of the former Endicott-Johnson Shoe Corporation, Henry Bradford Endicott. Now, Dedham hosts summer concerts on the lawn here. The home can also be rented for weddings and other events. The estate’s carriage house is now home to the Endicott branch of the Dedham Public Library.
