Listing information updated 11/14/2025 at 4:06pm

It's not every day that a home with this much history, character, & presence becomes available in the coveted Old Northside Historic District-just moments from the energy of downtown Indianapolis. This is more than a home; it's a chapter of the city's past, waiting for its next devoted steward. From the moment you cross the threshold, you're met with an atmosphere that only time can create. The original millwork on the sweeping staircase is nothing short of extraordinary, a true showcase of 19th-century craftsmanship that welcomes you with warmth and grace. The two-tone quarter-sawn oak floors gleam with a rich patina, bearing witness to generations of footsteps and stories. Stained glass windows scatter jewel-toned light across the rooms, while ornate fireplaces anchor the space in authenticity & beauty. For those who treasure historic homes but crave the comforts of today, you'll be pleased to find thoughtful updates that preserve the integrity of the home while supporting modern living. The home sits on a beautifully oversized L-shaped lot with brick walkways, perennial gardens, and a private in-ground pool that brings a touch of resort living to your every day. Enclosed by a graceful iron fence and shaded by mature trees, the grounds evoke a sense of privacy and timeless charm. Imagine quiet evenings by the pool, garden parties with friends, or simply enjoying the hum of the neighborhood from your front porch. And the history here is not just architectural-it's personal. The home was once owned by Nannette Dowd, Indianapolis' 1st female City-County Council member, elected in 1936, & her husband, Dr. Frank T. Dowd. Their legacy lives on in these walls, adding another layer of meaning to an already remarkable residence. If you've been searching for a home with soul, story, and a setting that honors the past while embracing the present, this is it. This is your opportunity to live in history & write your own chapter in one of Indy's most treasured neighborhoods.
