Property Description
Welcome to 126 Lancaster Road, a rare 2.5-acre waterfront retreat in the heart of Irvington, just moments from the acclaimed Tides Inn Resort. This rambling 1940s cottage has been thoughtfully renovated and offers 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, vaulted ceilings, and a spacious living and dining area framed by a wall of glass doors overlooking Carter's Creek. A detached two-car garage with tool shed includes a guest cottage featuring a fourth bedroom and full bath, perfect for overflow visitors or private office space. The property features a large grandfathered pool within the 100-foot resource protection area, offering an exceptional opportunity to reimagine this outdoor space with a pool house, outdoor kitchen, or other resort-style amenities. The deep-water pier is outfitted with two lifts, power, and water, with over 7 feet MLW to easily accommodate yachts and deep draft sailboats. With frontage on both Lancaster and York Roads, this expansive parcel is one of the few remaining large tracts in Irvington. Mature landscaping and prime water access make it a rare find, offering privacy, convenience, and the potential for future redevelopment. Showings to begin Friday October 3rd.
