    What's special

    Gas fireplaceSits on three lotsBay windowsSun-filled great roomCathedral ceilingsLovely brick homeSmart thermostat
    This 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom, lovely brick home sits on three lots near the University of Indianapolis, where the fully fenced backyard is a genuine oasis - a sprawling, private retreat shaded by mature trees with a paver patio and screened porch made for summer evenings. Inside, the sun-filled great room features cathedral ceilings, bay windows, a skylight, a gorgeous, new 60" Hunter fan and a cozy gas fireplace. The whole house was updated in 2026 with new LVP and carpet, fresh paint, and new fixtures throughout. The primary bedroom is conveniently on the main level, the kitchen features stainless steel appliances, and the full basement with a second kitchen gives you more options than you'd expect at this price point. The big-ticket items are already handled - new A/C (2024), furnace (2022), water heater (2025), sewer lines (2022), and a smart thermostat - plus a central vacuum system, washer and dryer, and a detached 2-car garage with metal roof. Space, updates, and a backyard you'll never want to leave - all just minutes from UIndy.
