Some homes are defined by what they are. This one is exciting because of what it can become. For the past 12 years, this character-filled home near Farrington’s Grove has been the backdrop for a growing family—complete with creative bedrooms, school spaces, sunny rooms, and plenty of room to gather. Now, it is ready for its next story. Keep it as a spacious single-family home, continue using it as a rental, or convert it back into a duplex. With two furnaces, two electric meters, two gas meters, one water heaters, and sunrooms on both levels, much of the groundwork for flexibility is already in place. The roof, siding, and most windows were replaced in 2018. Inside, you’ll find generous room sizes, wood flooring in the kitchen, and the warmth and character that only an older home can offer. Whether you envision a family home, an income-producing property, or a combination of both, this is more than square footage—it is an opportunity to shape a property around your future. Average monthly utilities: Duke Energy $418, CenterPoint Energy $95, Terre Haute Sewer $73, and Indiana American Water $99.
