Listing information updated 3/2/2026 at 2:46pm

Nestled on a lovely corner lot, this 1916 home is full of character and potential. Owned by the same family for over fifty years, it offers a rare opportunity to restore and personalize a classic Irvington gem. The home showcases original charm throughout, including leaded glass windows, built-ins, and beautiful woodwork. The living room features a cozy fireplace, French doors, and a thoughtful layout that connects seamlessly to the dining area. A dual-access staircase adds to the home's period appeal. The large kitchen, while ready for updates, provides generous space and natural light, making it the perfect foundation for a future renovation. Upstairs, an attic with a dedicated staircase offers the possibility for an additional bedroom, studio, or home office, while the basement provides excellent potential for a finished family room or recreation space. A new furnace was installed in August 2025, a new on-demand water heater, PEX piping, and a new walk-in shower were also added in the past year. Outside, the deep, tree-lined lot offers both privacy and shade, ideal for relaxing or entertaining. With three bedrooms, one full bath, and timeless architectural details, this home invites its next owner to bring fresh vision to a well-loved residence in one of Indianapolis's most charming neighborhoods.
