About Oxford:
Settled on 1500 Acres by Richard Thompson, originally from England. In the 1800's industry was farming and lumber, a theme for the area, Woolen Mills in the 1860's and Sawmills in the 1880's, bringing the nick name "Slabtown" to the community, during this time the real name also changed to become Oxford.
As a crossroads in the 1900's, most traffic past through the small town, ending with the four lane highway, people passed by, a less busy and quiet community started to form.
Oxford Frozen Foods now the main employer brings another nickname to the community. From Slabtown to The Bluberry Capital.

Step into a grand Victorian masterpiece fully restored, move-in ready, and crowned by one of the most extraordinary private gardens you will ever find. This is not a fixer-upper; it's a home that has been lovingly updated from top to bottom, offering generous space for every chapter of life. A dedicated home office, a hobby room, and a private third-floor suite that adapts to your passions whether you envision a sun-drenched art studio, a quiet writing nook, a music room, or a cozy guest retreat for visiting grandchildren and out-of-town friends. The space is flexible, inviting, and ready for whatever your next chapter holds. But the true heart of this property lies beyond the back door. Follow the charming steps down a gentle hillside into a tiered gardener's paradise 300 feet of professionally designed and meticulously maintained beds. Imagine harvesting fresh blueberries, picking from over 200 feet of raspberry canes (early and late varieties for a long season), and walking through row after row of every vegetable and herb you can imagine. It's not just a garden; it's a year-round farm-to-table lifestyle enough to eat all summer long and fill the freezer for the winter without the backbreaking work of starting from scratch, because it is already fully established and thriving. And for your four-legged family members? The fully fenced half-acre yard means pets can roam, run, and play safely all day long while you relax or tend to your beds. Back inside, the home welcomes you with warmth and ease. A detached double garage, a unique wood-fired hot tub for starry-night soaks, and all major appliances included even the professionally hardwired living room television. If you have been dreaming of a home with space, character, and a garden that produces enough to sustain you through every season with a flexible third-floor creative escape and a safe yard for your pets this exceptional Victorian is waiting for you.
