Welcome to the Joshua Truitt House! Originally built identical to the house next door, 419 W. Charles underwent extensive renovations between 1902-1906 and became the home we see today. Joshua Truitt was described as "a man of marked individuality, a good student, a close and logical reasoner, a man of strong convictions and had a high sense of justice." He was elected as Surveyor of Delaware County in 1856 and after that started a lumber business. Now is your chance to own this piece of Muncie history! As you walk up to the home, you will love the beautiful wrought iron fence and wrap around porch. This home features lots of gorgeous original windows, some with wavy glass and some with stained glass. This house was restructured into a large, three-bedroom main house, with a one-bedroom apartment built into the back space of the home. The apartment has its own private garden entrance and is connected to the main house by an enclosed porch. It can be rented out as a unit, utilized as an AirBnB, or integrated into the main house and used as a studio space. Rental income can supplement the mortgage payments. The main floor is home to the beautiful living room, large dining room, and spacious kitchen. The half bath is also on the main floor. Upstairs there are 3 nice sized bedrooms and the additional large full bath with laundry area. Outside, the back yard is a great place to garden and there is a shed area off the back of the house. There is lots of off street parking off the alley in the back. Mechanical updates to this home include: new HVAC 11/2022, new soft water system 10/2022, new reverse osmosis 10/2022, new water heater 4/2022, new sump pump 8/2022, and more! This home is in a great downtown location. In less than a 10 minute walk you can enjoy summer concerts at Canan Commons, dinner downtown on Walnut Street, coffee at the Caffienery, and more!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
