The kitchen and bathrooms have been thoughtfully updated, yet you’ll still find this home offers the charm of built-ins, cove-ceiling details, and hardwood floors that shine upstairs. Sitting on a corner lot with great curb appeal, this property includes a fenced yard, a storage shed, and a two-car attached garage that’s heated and cooled by a new ductless mini-split—ideal for hobbies, projects, or simply avoiding Indiana weather. Major updates give peace of mind: newer appliances (2024), roof and gutters (2020), AC (2021), gas water heater (2025), exterior stucco paint (2021). Pride of ownership is unmistakable throughout. If you're looking for a home that blends history, style, and thoughtful improvements, this one delivers.
