About this home

Located in the heart of Irvington, this 2BR, 1BA home is surrounded by the historic architecture, tree-lined streets and neighborhood character that make the area so distinctive, with Irvington shops, restaurants and bars, Ellenberger Park, Pleasant Run Trail and connected greenways within easy walking distance. Inside, original details and thoughtful updates come together beautifully, with hardwood floors throughout adding to the home's warmth and character. The spacious living room features stained glass windows, original trim and built-in bookcases, while the adjoining dining or second living area retains beautiful historic details, including a detailed ceiling, picture rail, built-in shelving and seating. An expansive, updated, light-filled kitchen provides abundant counter space and peninsula seating. The large primary bedroom offers plenty of room with dual closets, while the light-filled second bedroom-with windows on two sides and large closet space-works beautifully as a bedroom, home office or nursery. The completely redesigned bathroom features beautiful tilework, a large tiled shower and oversized soaking tub, while a full basement offers additional storage and the opportunity for future finished space. Outside, the large fenced backyard is made for enjoying, with a spacious deck, updated landscaping and a fire pit sitting area for gathering and entertaining. Other very recent improvements include enhanced backyard fencing, a water softener, and a new PVC sewer line and backflow valve. A 1 car garage, original porte cochere and EV charger also add even more function and character. Beautifully updated while retaining the details that make an older home special, this is a home with personality, inviting spaces and an Irvington setting that is hard to beat.
