About this home

5155 Evanston is a two-bedroom, one-bath bungalow that pairs original character with updates that let a buyer move in without a big-ticket to-do list. Entering from the welcoming front porch, large front windows fill the living room with natural light. Every window in the house has been updated, along with both exterior doors. The galley kitchen is bright and efficient, with matching stainless steel appliances. Just off it, the dinette area gets light from three large windows and includes custom bench seating; the dinette set stays with the home. Both bedrooms are well-sized, featuring multiple windows and functional closets. The bathroom has been refreshed with a refinished shower surround, tub, and vanity. Downstairs, the basement offers straightforward storage and laundry. A new furnace covers one of the biggest ownership expenses for the next owner. Out back, the ample yard is fully fenced for your furry friends. The detached garage provides useful storage and parking in addition to the long driveway. This area of SoBro is walkable and tree-lined, with sidewalks throughout vibrant with neighbor presence. Trail access is a genuine advantage: the new Nickel Plate Trail, the Monon Trail, and the Fall Creek Trail are all close by, with commuter access at 52nd and Keystone. Broad Ripple Village, the Keystone corridor, and downtown are all a short ride away. This cared-for home offers updated systems, real character, and a warm, convenient location at an exceptional value. Qualified buyers can purchase this home with 0% down and a 6.25% interest rate
