About this home

Nestled in the heart of desirable Butler/Tarkington, this stunning home sits just steps from the Central Canal Trails, local dining, and shops at 56th & Illinois, and minutes from Butler University. The main level showcases a thoughtfully updated kitchen complete with granite countertops, a new refrigerator, dishwasher, and faucet, seamlessly flowing into a spacious formal dining room. Main and upper levels have beautiful original hardwood floors. Through the living room's original French doors, a versatile bonus space awaits-ideal for a dedicated home office, fitness studio, or main-level 4th bedroom. The partially finished basement offers even more living space, featuring brand-new carpet in the generously sized bonus room. The separate laundry area, four-year-old HVAC system, and additional storage provide both convenience and functionality. Step outside to your private retreat featuring an 18x21 deck with built-in bench seating, a fully fenced courtyard, a custom play area, and an oversized 3-car garage. Complete with fresh upper exterior paint and gutters (2026), this home offers timeless midtown character paired with modern peace of mind.
