Charming 4-bedroom home in Prospect Hill of downtown Bloomington with original charm and modern conveniences! This home has 2-3 bedrooms on the main level. There is a generous living room upon entry with hardwood floors. The master bedroom is very large and has a door to the covered front porch, too! The bath has been updated with tile. The kitchen has a newer solid surface countertop with integral sink, new tiled backsplash, stainless gas range, dishwasher, and stainless Fisher Paykel refrigerator. There is a dining area alongside the kitchen that will easily seat 6-8. (The third bedroom on the main overlooks the backyard and is currently used as a laundry room.) The lower level has been updated to add two additional bedrooms. A new bath has been added downstairs with a large, tiled shower with glass doors. New vanity and sink were added. The garage area currently has a large workbench and is used as a workshop. This home includes part of 3 lots deep. There is an alley along the west side of the property for access to the garage and carport. The backyard is an oasis of fun awaiting! There is a large in-ground fiberglass pool with ceramic tile border and pool cover. The owners have loved the fun times and opportunity to enjoy the backyard. There is a large Trex decking area with built-in benches that surrounds the pool. The owners have added a bar area alongside. There is a chicken coop in the backyard that has most recently doubled as a storage area for outdoor implements or patio furniture. They did have chickens there at one time for fresh eggs. There is a firepit that could be used for outdoor cooking. It might be best to put a screened dome over it. There's lots of backyard space for games, etc. One might even pursue the possibility of adding a Carriage House back there! If you desire to live downtown with upscale features, this is a "must see". The charm of yesteryear coupled with some outstanding features of today add to the appeal found here! Looking for that location close to downtown, Indiana University and more.
