Property Description
Welcome to The Little Jewel Box—a picture-perfect cottage nestled in the heart of Irvington, just a stone's throw from the Tides Inn. Lovingly updated and full of personality, this sweet one-level home is as graceful as it is functional, with sun-filled rooms, thoughtful finishes, and gardens that feel like a storybook. Inside, you'll find two bedrooms plus a flexible den currently used as a cozy sitting room or TV space (and yes, it has its own full bath and private entrance—perfect for a guest suite or a quiet escape). The refreshed kitchen sparkles with granite counters, stainless steel appliances, and open views into the dining and living areas. Vaulted ceilings and skylights bathe the space in natural light, while a gas fireplace adds just the right touch of warmth. The recently renovated Jack-and-Jill bath offers a walk-in tile shower and built-in linen storage. Throughout the home, crisp paint, gleaming floors, and a calm, curated aesthetic create a feeling of effortless elegance. Step outside to enjoy a wide front porch, professionally tended gardens, two koi ponds, and a classic white picket fence. A one-car garage, off-street parking, and low-maintenance living round out the package. Located just 0.5 miles from water access at Gaskins Landing and moments from the Rappahannock River Yacht Club, this jewel of a home is perfect as a second home, a charming downsize, or a full-time retreat in one of the most coveted corners of the Northern Neck.
