Key Facts
Description
This is the perfect blend of historic soul with modern reliability, just steps from the heart of Irvington. Featured in the prestigious 2022 Benton House Home Tour, this 4-bedroom, 2-story gem boasts architectural details like original natural woodwork and a grand entry stairwell. The main floor flows from the warm hardwoods of the living space into a lovely paneled den/library, perfect for a home office or a quiet reading nook. The updated kitchen is a chef's delight, featuring gas cooking, stainless steel appliances, and a smart layout that connects to a rare find in historic homes: a dedicated main-floor laundry and mudroom. The second floor offers a spacious primary retreat along with three guest bedrooms, and an updated bath, all supported by a dedicated walk-in storage. Forget the headaches of a historic home - improvements include a 2016/17 rehab (new HVAC, 200 amp service, gas line run to the fireplace, new plumbing lines, refinished floors, new water softener, rear privacy fence and front metal fence) as well as 2025 improvements (new roof, chimney tuckpointing, new A/C condenser, additional blown-in insulation and hot tub cover). Outside, your private oasis awaits: a fully fenced yard featuring a hot tub, entertaining area, and an edible landscape of blackberries, raspberries, and a peach tree. This isn't just a house - it's a century of stories, beautiful craftsmanship and piece of history.
