About this home

Character, craftsmanship and an exceptional location come together beautifully in this thoughtfully updated home. Attention to detail is evident throughout, from the welcoming front door, arched doorways and striking hammered copper fireplace hood to custom crown moulding, beadboard ceilings, built in shelving and California Closets. The flexible floor plan offers bedrooms on both levels, including an oversized upper level primary suite with vaulted ceilings and a spacious walk in closet. The light filled sunroom is a standout, opening directly to the expansive front porch with retractable awning, creating a wonderful connection between indoor and outdoor living. Outside, the fully fenced rear yard features a custom rock wall with engineered drainage, thoughtfully designed to complement the landscape while providing important function. Stairs from the garage lead to an unfinished room above, offering exciting potential for a future home office, studio, hobby room or additional flex space. Major improvements include a new Carrier Infinity HVAC system in 2025, exterior painting and sealing, exterior wood trim replacement and front door refinishing in 2024, plus a rebuilt sunroom wall with new windows and custom shades. Additional features include dual HVAC systems, reverse osmosis water filtration and irrigation. All of this in an incredible location less than 15 minutes from downtown and within walking distance of neighborhood favorites including Tinker Street, Cafe Patachou, Kincaid's, Byrne's Pizza, Starbucks and Graeter's. Enjoy easy access to the Central Canal Towpath, Butler University, Holliday Park, The Riviera Club, Newfields and more. A truly special home with timeless character, thoughtful updates and room to make it your own.

Estimates only. This calculator does not give a quote. Defaults reflect Marion County / Indianapolis averages: property tax from this home's actual county bill, homeowners insurance at 0.42% annually. Conventional: PMI runs 0.55% of the loan annually when your down payment is below 20%, and drops automatically at 22% equity.
