Property Description
Tucked just south of the Forest Hills entrance, this 1927 Craftsman bungalow has the kind of charm that is hard to manufacture and easy to fall for. The exterior was freshly painted in a rich red pulled straight from the Craftsman era, and the story starts before you even reach the front door. The glass-enclosed front porch is where mornings slow down. It's the spot for your first cup of coffee while the neighborhood wakes up around you, and it works in every season. Inside, original hardwood floors and painted woodwork run throughout, and the home keeps its sense of history. The living room opens to a separate dining room with space for a full table and real conversation. The kitchen was updated with a lot of thought and a lot of character. Painted cabinets and a warm butcher block countertop set the tone, and a one-of-a-kind tile backsplash gives the room its personality. New stainless steel appliances bring it up to date, and yes, the owner even found room for a dishwasher, which anyone who knows bungalow kitchens will appreciate. Both bedrooms and the full bath are on the main level, which makes everyday living simple. Downstairs, a 25x17 unfinished bonus room that gives you a flexible space or storage space, along with the laundry area and utility sink. Out back, a patio sits under mature trees in a fully fenced yard with room to spread out, and a detached one-car garage adds storage and parking. Then there is the location, which is where this home stands apart. Sidewalks and tree-lined streets lead to the restaurants and shops along College Avenue and 54th Street. The Monon Trail is close enough to become part of your daily routine instead of an occasional outing. This pocket of the city is known for its walkability, and it doesn't take long before you're leaving the car in the garage for dinner, coffee, and weekend errands. This home kept its history intact, updated where it counts, and puts all of it within walking distance of everything worth walking to.
