About This Home

Incredibly charming 1920s bungalow in the heart of East Bank Village! Just a short walk to Howard Park and all that downtown South Bend has to offer, this home is also only minutes from the University of Notre Dame. A spacious front porch welcomes you into a home filled with timeless character, including original hardwood floors, archways, French doors, stained-glass accents, built-in cabinetry, and beautifully preserved natural woodwork that has not been painted. Several original light fixtures remain, adding to the home's historic charm.

Additional improvements include a new 1/2 bath, garage roof, overhead and service doors, driveway, patio, side porch and steps, and rebuilt front porch steps. The detached garage is a tailgater's dream, making game days even more special. This rare blend of historic charm, modern updates, and exceptional location is an opportunity you won't want to miss.
