About This Home
Welcome to Maxwell Lane, one of Bloomington's oldest homes, originally owned by the distinguished Dr. Maxwell who had an instrumental part in found Indiana University. This three-story home is original to Elm Heights and blends Bloomington’s historic charm with modern upgrades, creating a home that is both storied and eco-conscious. The main level features a spacious living room with expansive windows, a large dining area open to the kitchen, and a flexible room that can serve as a bedroom or office. Upstairs, you will find three bedrooms, including the primary ensuite, along with an additional full bathroom. An additional staircase leads to the uppermost level, where cathedral ceilings, skylights, and a rock-climbing wall bring light and life to a large rec room with its own full bathroom. The home’s charm is complemented by a wood-burning fireplace and architectural detailing throughout, including stained-glass windows, beautiful wood trim, hardwood flooring, original wooden doors with decorative knobs, and a preserved hand-painted mural. The current owners have made essential improvements to the home, adding efficiency and long-term value while preserving its historic charm. Updates include new windows, an updated chimney, an electric vehicle charger, a new sewer line, and more! Located on a corner in the heart of Bloomington, you will be near Bryan Park, Indiana University, Elm Heights, and Bloomington’s most picturesque streets. Enjoy the convenience of a two-car garage, a hard to find amenity in the neighborhood.
