Welcome to this delightful 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom bungalow located in the heart of Irvington! This home effortlessly combines historic charm with modern updates, showcasing updated lighting, rich wood trim, and beautiful wainscoting. Timeless hardwood floors and an elegant fireplace set the stage for a cozy, welcoming atmosphere. The renovated kitchen (Nov 2019) and both bathrooms (Sept 2021 & Feb 2025) feature contemporary finishes while maintaining the home's classic appeal. Relax on the charming covered porch, perfect for a cozy porch swing, or retreat to the spacious backyard, complete with a privacy fence, firepit, and ample space for outdoor entertaining. With the added convenience of a garage, this home effortlessly combines historic charm with modern updates. Ideally situated in an extremely walkable neighborhood, this home is just a short stroll from the local library, restaurants, and a charming ice cream shop. It's also only one block from the annual Irvington Halloween Festival, offering a true sense of community with friendly neighbors. With the future Blue Line bus route nearby and direct access to the Pennsy Trail, it's easy to explore all that Irvington and beyond have to offer. Plus, you're just a quick drive from downtown Indianapolis! Other recent updates include new gutters (Oct 2020), the removal of knob & tube wiring and a new panel (Oct 2019), a French drain system to direct water from the left side of the house to the street (May 2022), and most plumbing updated to PEX. The trees were trimmed in 2024, and the chimney flashing was replaced in May 2022.
