Distinctive all-brick 2007 custom-built home on Bloomington's SE side. Fully remodeled kitchen (2020) and large pantry (2017) look over the beautiful, park-like .81 acre lot, with deer trail down to the banks of Jackson Creek. This area is part of an nature conservancy and can never be developed. Four cheery bedrooms, four full bathrooms (master bath has a double walk-in shower, another with a jet tub), fully finished walk-out basement with a large family room, and a flex room that could serve as an office, a guest room or a craft space. Huge living room has wood burning fireplace with a gas starter. Fireplace could easily be converted to gas. Hardwood floors on the main floor, all hallways, main stairs. There is an absolutely beautiful view from the back of the home, looking out over meadow and woods (the nature preserve). Nice open floor plan, with lots of nooks for cozy living, including a storybook window on the second floor, with floor-to-ceiling built in bookcases—which is currently used as a library. Fully finished attic space, for even more flex space, where currently is used as a guest sleeping area (‘bonus room’) on on half of the attic, and the other half is used as an office. The two generous attic rooms could be used for work-out space, yoga or dance practice, an amazing playroom, or a fantastic sewing/crafts room with lots of space to lay out projects. The home has been lovingly cared for by the original owners, who have meticulously maintained the property and added nice enhancements along the way, like the 5 fruit trees planted on the south side, including 2 apples, 1 cherry, 1 pear and 1 nectarine. The yard is full of perennials. There is a lovely deck right off the main living area, and below that a sheltered covered porch off the basement walkout below. Delightful artful touches throughout the home from the carved limestone rosette at its peak, to the subtle use of leaded glass, and the custom ceramic hearth by local artist Larry Halverson. There are fluted moldings with rosettes on all windows and doors on the main level, second level, and for most of the doors/windows in the basement. Fantastic south-side location, convenient to recreation and all the local amenities downtown, on the eastside and at IU.
