Welcome to 1215 Colton Ave, Bloomington. I don't know about you but porches are a dream and guess what? This one has two! I can just picture myself opening up the windows and letting the Fall breeze in and the smell of campfire. Wood laminate flooring spreads out nicely through this house with some comfy carpeting for those cozy cold winter nights (both installed in '25). The basement has great storage and nice new epoxy floors ('26) throughout. Some 2026 updates include: new garage roof, paint (inside and out), light fixtures and more! I mean come on, you don't only get a two car garage, but you get two sheds too!? Well, what you are waiting for? Book your appointment today!
