This Salt Box–inspired beauty, echoes the cozy charm of early 1900s homes where neighbors lingered to chat along the lane. Sitting on a roomy half-acre plus lot and shaded by majestic pecan trees, it’s the perfect spot to sip sweet tea on a summer afternoon. Inside, the kitchen shines with a 2020 update - granite counters, a breakfast bar, fresh appliances, and durable LVP flooring. Throughout the home, windows have been replaced, and both full baths (up and down) were thoughtfully refreshed. The downstairs bath is a clever two-in-one, connecting both to the primary suite and the hall for guests. Vintage character is still alive here with original pine floors and bead board walls in the entryway, while low-maintenance vinyl siding keeps upkeep simple. Outside, you’ll find a fenced side yard—ideal for kids or furry friends - and a fabulous new shed (2021) just waiting to be a workshop, studio, or She-shed. Parking? Plenty. Best of all, this home is tucked on a peaceful side street within golf-cart distance to everything Irvington has to offer - restaurants, tennis, shops, playgrounds, the Steamboat Museum, concerts, and even the farmers market. And yes, you can stroll to the Tides Inn for lunch or dinner with friends. It’s small-town charm wrapped in modern comfort.
