1700 N STAFFORD ST

Absolute Charmer in Cherrydale!! Come check out this 5 BR / 3 bath gorgeous home, on a huge 15,000+ square foot property, with mature landscaping, and greenery everywhere. This 1936 Tudor home has all the character and charm you could hope for, with all the modern conveniences of daily life. The layout and flow of the house provide utter convenience, with the bedrooms and bathrooms distributed nicely across three levels of living. The kitchen has had a modern renovation, with ample pantry space, and yet it still maintains all the charm of this historic home. Beautiful chestnut woodwork consistently runs throughout the main floor to reinforce the beauty of its time period. The showpiece of the house is the 33-foot long porch (with natural wood ceiling and floor!), a private oasis, which overlooks the mature landscaping, including a majestic oak, two Dawn redwoods, a ginko, a magnolia, dogwood, maple, holly, pine and azaleas in the large yard. There are stairs leading to a stone patio, and in the corner of the property, there's a Zen garden with a beautiful carved stone Buddha. Back inside the home, there is a formal living room, with a fireplace (two working fireplaces in the house!), which gives way to a generous sunroom. Upstairs you’ll find a lovely sitting area which leads to both upstairs bedrooms. Built-ins and other detail work really capture the essence of this Tudor masterpiece. A finished basement, with ample storage, and a two-car garage, with additional adjacent carport provide more space and ease of living. All this with all the charm, character, and convenience of the highly sought-after Cherrydale community. Just two blocks from Washington-Liberty High School, Oak Park and the W&OD bike trail. This is a must see!
