Perched high above the street is your own nest tucked away amongst the foliage for great privacy. This is the first time this Irvington classic bungalow has been on the market in almost a half-century having been loved and improved through the years making it ready for its next chapter. After ascending the 20 steps you will enter a charming living room with a wood-burning fireplace now with gas-logs flanked by built-ins with hardwood floors carrying through into the formal dining room with even more built-ins. Both rooms are flooded with light from big picture windows. The roomy kitchen has all the function any cook would want and a space perfect for an eat-in area by the bay window. Spread throughout the main and upper floors are 3 bedrooms and 2-1/2 baths so there is space for everyone to find their own special spot. The 2 bedrooms on the main are cozy and private, and one even has a French door to the backyard onto the deck. For your convenience there is both an updated full bath as well as a half bath on the main floor; definitely not that common in houses of this era. Passing through the den you continue on to a Neil Kelly remodeled upper floor with a dedicated space with south-facing windows with great light, perfect for a work-from-home office or even a great home-schooling area. There is also the primary bedroom suite with enough space for a sitting area, a bathroom with a soaking tub and slate shower, plus a super large walk-in closet. The basement can be accessed from both the inside or from the street through the garage and is open and ready for your hobbies, workshop or storage. While the reinforced garage could accommodate a sub-compact car, it is most ideal for bikes, kayaks, sports equipment, yard tools and easy access to the basement. Above the garage in front of the house is a rooftop patio for outdoor entertaining. The neighbors all know each other, do things with and for each other and refer to the block as "Home of the world's greatest folks"! [Home Energy Score = 4.
