Step into a piece of history where timeless Victorian charm meets modern comfort. From the moment you walk through the door, you're greeted by soaring 12-foot ceilings, stunning original woodwork, gorgeous hardwood floors, intricate original lighting, coffered ceilings and the kind of craftsmanship and character that simply cannot be recreated today. Every room in this home tells a story, filled with warmth, elegance, and architectural beauty that immediately makes you feel at HOME. Located in the heart of Bloomington, this amazing 3-bedroom Victorian home has been remodeled throughout while carefully preserving the details that make homes from this era so special. Enjoy incredible outdoor living with 4 porches, including 2 upstairs porches, a large wraparound back deck, private balcony, and an adorable covered back porch. The main level offers oversized room sizes with a formal dining room, formal living room, family room, and a charming updated kitchen designed for both everyday living and entertaining. Large windows throughout flood the home with natural light, highlighting the beauty and character in every space. One of the seller's favorite aspects of the home. Upstairs features 3 spacious bedrooms and a huge full bath complete with double sinks, separate shower, jetted tub, and convenient second-floor laundry. This home also offers valuable major updates including geothermal heating and cooling with two separate units - one replaced in 2023 and the second believed to be approximately 15 years old. Additional improvements include a new dishwasher, refrigerator, washing machine, and the addition of a radon mitigation system. A new roof (2026) will be installed prior to closing. A rare opportunity to own a truly unforgettable Victorian filled with charm, character, and modern updates.
