A rare 1937 Art Deco residence, steps from Butler University in coveted Butler-Tarkington. Streamline Moderne at its finest: a fluted, stepped stone door surround, an octagonal accent window, ribboned horizontal window bays, and geometric symmetry you simply do not find in Indianapolis. Inside, gleaming hardwood floors, a gas fireplace, and a light-filled glass-enclosed porch carry the period character throughout. Thoughtful modern comforts include a tankless water heater, an automatic driveway gate, and a full perimeter fence. Out back, a brand-new deck, refreshed landscaping, and mature trees frame a private retreat. The detached brick two-car garage is topped by a heated and cooled carriage house space with water and sewer already run, ideal flex space today and a future ADU or in-law suite tomorrow. Full basement for storage. Homes of this character and pedigree rarely come to market. Come see why 518 Buckingham is one of a kind.
