About This Home
OPEN HOUSE this Sunday, May 3, 2026 from 12pm to 1:30pm! This charming 3-bedroom, 2 full-bath home sits on a spacious double lot totaling 1 acre and features thoughtful updates throughout. An arts and crafts style front door opens to an inviting living space with custom built-in shelving surrounding a cozy gas fireplace. Newly refinished ebony hardwood floors run throughout the main level and upstairs, complemented by arched doorways and antique doorknobs with skeleton keys. The kitchen includes butcher block countertops, a reverse osmosis water filtration system, a large sink overlooking the yard and screened-in porch, and a generous dining area. In addition, the main floor offers a bedroom, full bath, and a versatile bonus room ideal for an office or extra living space that has a pull-down attic for extra storage. Upstairs are two more bedrooms and an updated full bath. The basement provides a laundry area with washer and dryer, a large utility sink, and a room perfect for a storm shelter or canned food storage. Major updates completed by the current owners include fully rewired and grounded electrical, all new windows, and a reinforced basement wall with a partial perimeter drain and sump pump. Outside, the property features a partially fenced and gated yard, a screened porch with an attached shed, an 8' x 12' storage shed with loft, and an oversized detached two-car garage. The expansive outdoor space is ideal for gardening and recreation, with a variety of fruiting and ornamental trees, including: apple, nectarine, peach, cherry, and magnolia, along with blueberry bushes, hostas, and peonies. This home offers a private country feel while being just 10 minutes from IU’s Kelley School of Business and the O’Neill School of Public and Environmental Affairs!
