Key Facts
Description
Homes like this don't get listed — they get inherited. Nestled on one of the most coveted, tree-lined streets in Columbia's historic Forest Hills, 2631 Stratford Rd has been cherished by only two owners since it was built in 1950 — and it shows in every detail, from the impeccably preserved original hardwood floors (recently refinished to brand-new condition) to the timeless architectural bones that simply aren't built anymore.Step inside and feel the scale: soaring, oversized rooms anchored by classic fireplaces, a warm family room for everyday living, and a separate formal living room for entertaining in style. A sun-drenched sunroom currently serves as a peaceful home office, while the formal dining room — bathed in incredible natural light — sets the stage for holidays and gatherings for years to come. The eat-in kitchen, complete with two full pantries, brings function to match the home's elegance, and a walk-down basement offers all the storage a busy household could need.Upstairs, all three bedrooms enjoy their own private full bathroom — a rare and coveted layout that makes daily life effortless for family or guests alike. The primary suite goes even further, offering an impressive four closets for storage that today's homes simply can't match.But the real surprise sits just across the pool: a fully self-contained apartment above the detached double garage, complete with its own full kitchen, full bathroom, laundry, and closets. Whether you need a guest suite, an income-producing rental, a work-from-home studio, a homeschool room, your Nanny's on site apartment, an art or fitness studio, or a teenager's dream hideaway,this flexible fourth bedroom space adapts to exactly how you live.Poolside, you'll also find a pool room with its own full bathroom — ideal as a kids' retreat, a home gym, a pool house lounge, or whatever your lifestyle calls for. Between this space and the apartment above the garage, the possibilities for this property are nearly endless.The pool &hot tub (freshly serviced with a new pump and filters) invite year-round relaxation, while the expansive, lush front lawn and mature landscaping create pure curb-appeal magic.
