271 Stratford Road

Move right into this recently-upgraded Victorian, conveniently located on a tree-lined block just steps from Cortelyou Road and Prospect Park! Light pours into the home's parlor floor from all sides, creating an open, airy living space and providing great views of the backyard, front porch and neighboring cherry tree. The living/dining area is divided by original glass french doors, allowing versatile living and entertaining options. A wood burning fireplace in the dining room adds ambiance to this already charming space. The renovated kitchen includes granite counter tops and stainless appliances. Two large pantries at each end of the L-shaped kitchen allows for maximum storage options, while a renovated half bath is conveniently located off the kitchen. On the second floor, an expansive master bedroom features three large windows and two exposures. A large walk-in closet adjoins the master, converted from what was previously a bedroom. There are two other bedrooms on the second floor, each with two exposures and closets. A renovated bathroom on the second floor has a lovely view of the spacious backyard. The third floor includes two additional bedrooms, a renovated bathroom and a windowed laundry room. The large basement is great for storage, and the extra large backyard is ideal for gardening, entertaining or just relaxing. Park your car in the detached garage or use it as an additional outdoor entertaining area! This home is perfectly located a few short blocks from the Beverley Road stop on the Q train, a two-minute stroll from the shops and restaurants on Cortelyou Road, and a short, beautiful walk from Prospect Park. The house's electrical and heating systems were upgraded recently, as was the roof, and the porch and stoop have just been reconstructed. Move right in and enjoy country-in-the-city living in this lovely Ditmas Park home!
