1044 Elm St, Indianapolis, IN 46203

Tucked inside North Square, one of Fountain Square's most charming and walkable pockets, this beautifully updated home blends historic character with thoughtful modern updates just moments from Indy favorites like Inferno Room, Maialina, Bovaconti, nightlife, and Tot Shot Lot park. The inviting front porch swing, fenced front yard for pets, and adjacent open lot next door create a setting that feels both charming and functional. Inside, soaring ceilings, engineered hardwood flooring, abundant natural light, and updated finishes create a space that feels warm, airy, and move-in ready. The home has the perfect mix of modern updates while maintaining that old charm. The kitchen offers exceptional cabinet storage and has been refreshed with painted cabinetry, updated countertops, backsplash, lighting, and custom shelving while opening seamlessly into the dining and living spaces. The main-floor primary suite is a standout feature with an updated bath and custom closet system, while upstairs offers an oversized secondary bedroom or flexible living space with its own ensuite. There's the option to have your primary upstairs or downstairs. Additional updates include engineered flooring on the main level, PEX plumbing, dual washer/dryer setup (this stays!), radon mitigation system, new carpet, and 2024 furnace and AC. Solar panels provide major long-term energy savings and add to the home's efficiency (the electric bill runs around $10-$15/mo - whoa!) Outside, the private courtyard-style backyard with refreshed deck feels like a hidden retreat with mature landscaping, hardscaping, and a stunning Japanese maple creating the perfect backdrop for relaxing or entertaining. The attached 1-car garage (a rarity) and expanded driveway apron provide valuable off-street parking rarely found in this area. Homes with this level of charm, updates, energy efficiency, and walkability are rare in Fountain Square - especially with a setting and lifestyle like this. Come and claim it!
