Buyer's financing fell through and this home is back on the market!
In 1930, Sears described their Clifton model bungalow as being 'as practical and up to date as it is beautiful and unique', words that remain true today. This lovely Sears home is tucked away on a quiet street in Cherrydale, just a half block from Langston Boulevard and two miles from the D.C. line. Constructed in 1932, it is being sold from the estate of the couple who made it their home for almost 80 years.
A wide foyer opens into the main level which was constructed with nine foot ceilings and five foot tall windows, framed in the craftsman style, which bathe the rooms in natural light. Beautiful narrow oak floors were refinished for the first time just prior to this sale. There is a large full bath off of the hallway between the two main level bedrooms, either of which would make a wonderful home office. Upstairs, there are two more bedrooms and a small full bath tucked under the eaves. The upstairs also provides plenty of space for storage and/or a play area. The kitchen is completely original, with two newer appliances and out the back door is an elevated screened porch. A large unfinished basement runs the full length of the home. The backyard is walled on two sides creating a very private oasis which for many years contained marvelous gardens. And although this property is located in Maywood, it is not within the Maywood Historic District.
