Located on a desirable corner lot in Dimmitt's Grove just moments from downtown Bloomington, this charming 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers a wonderful blend of character, space, and thoughtful updates inside and out. A welcoming front porch sets the tone, while the screened back porch, deck, and patio with pergola create multiple inviting outdoor areas to relax or entertain. The large L-shaped fenced yard provides excellent green space, and the oversized two-car garage adds valuable storage and flexibility. Inside, you'll find spacious living and dining rooms, plus the convenience of a first-floor laundry room. The primary bedroom includes a large walk-in closet. The finished basement expands your options with a family room, built-in workshop space, cedar closet, and additional storage room. Over the years, the home has been consistently improved. The kitchen shines with new granite counters and table (2025) and benefits from 2008 updates to the kitchen, bathroom, laundry room, and primary bedroom closet. Major exterior investments include a new roof on both the house and garage (2016), new siding (2017), rebuilt retaining walls, and fencing improvements. Porch and deck updates, fresh paint, and screen replacements continue to enhance the outdoor living experience. If you're looking for historic neighborhood charm with meaningful upgrades already completed, this is a home you won't want to miss.
