OVER A CENTURY OF HISTORY — NOW PRICED TO SELL! Step back in time with this one-of-a-kind Irving landmark! Dating back to 1908, this longtime grocery store has been a fixture in the community for generations. Owned by the current sellers since 1972, this historic commercial property is ready for its next chapter! The approximately 2,500 square foot main level is loaded with original character, including impressive 12 foot ceilings, original tile ceilings, wood floors, and the original operational checkout counter.
