This 5 bedroom, 4 bathroom house is located at 108 Sunset Drive, just off Elm Street. The Greensboro Country Club, just down the road, was incorporated in 1911, so the above Irving Park home, built in 1915,  was one of the earlier homes in the neighborhood. *  As you can see from the bare trees, we are in the heart of winter. The photo was taken late in the afternoon and the winter sun shines brightly on this residence. 

From Elm Street to Lawndale Drive, Sunset Drive is a little over a mile and a half long. It meanders through the heart of Irving Park and many prominent properties are seen along the way. The Greensboro Country Club is on Sunset, with several of the golf holes visible from the road. The homes of Irving Park, this early, 145 acre neighborhood, are some of the most spectacular in Greensboro. The architecture is breathtaking, and very diverse. Between the beauty of the homes and the spectacular landscaping, Irving Park is truly a Greensboro gem. It you haven’t spent much time there, a good first pass would be to drive from one end of Sunset Drive to the other. Let us know if you find a personal favorite property. Read this Preservation Greensboro article and you can plan your very own tour of homes (the exterior views, of course).
