Sunset Drive, nearly two miles long,  runs from North Elm Street to Battleground Avenue, through the heart of Irving Park. The above home is located on Sunset Drive at the Greensboro Country Club’s golf course. It is representative of the grand abodes in this part of town. These Old Irving Park homes are not only beautiful structures, their lawns are meticulously groomed. Old Irving Park is less than two square miles, but some of Greensboro’s most prominent families live here and the median household income is 30% more than the median income of Greensboro residents on average.

Here at GDP, we sometimes get caught up in older homes that represent a bygone era or that are slated for demolition so that we can document “what was here.” However, we don’t want to leave our readers from elsewhere with the false notion that there are not stately and elegant homes here. In Greensboro, there is something for everybody. And the above home (currently for sale) would suit us just fine! How about you?
