This Springs "Main" Attraction! 147 Main Street is nicely nestled in the idyllic Ivoryton village which is part of the historical township of Essex. The ease of location, its close proximity to shops, restaurants and the nearby iconic Ivoryton Playhouse make this home the place to be. Totally upgraded and renovated, this home while staying true to its original charming design, now enjoys a perfectly modern interior. Upon entrance you are warmly greeted by the original re-finished hardwood floors and soft tones of the freshly painted walls. Volumes of natural light fill the living room and the adjacent dining area. The kitchen is beautifully presented with brand-name appliances, breakfast bar, pendant lighting and upscale granite countertops. These elements and the adjoining dining area come together to create an atmosphere that has all the necessary ingredients to host amazing gatherings. Upstairs you will find 3 bedrooms that provide flexibility for sleeping arrangements as well as an area for your state-of-the-art home office. Through the kitchen area you will find one of the newest additions, the laundry area and full bath which is an impressive use of space. This area also leads you to your backyard, and the adjacent newly built garage. The front porch is an ideal relaxing place for storytelling and that early morning cup of tea. This updated Main Street home takes center stage and is your ticket to a lifestyle you deserve.
