About This Home
As of September 2021Incredible opportunity to own this modern home designed in 1968 by Indiana’s great Modernist architect, Evans Woollen (1927-2016), who also designed IU's Musical Arts Center and Butler University's Clowes Hall. Woolen’s aesthetic is in full view with its geometric lines and signature arrangement of windows throughout the home that provide both abundant light and privacy. This multi-level home features 4-bedrooms, 2 full- and 2 half-baths. Through the custom stained-glass front entrance, the main level opens to a large great room with high ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows, a fireplace and views to the large backyard and deck. There is a half bath, a large kitchen with generous countertop space and great storage. The formal dining area with custom cabinetry leads to a screened in porch, a large outside deck and landscaped backyard. The second floor offers two large bedrooms and a new full bath. Up a short staircase, the third floor and includes a new full bath, a master bedroom with a double closet and a 4th bedroom that could serve as a study or an office. The current sellers finished the basement, which now includes a guest bath and playroom as well as ample storage space. The home offers a one-car garage and especially rare, off-street parking. The current owners have made numerous updates to this extraordinary home without compromising the design integrity, including new flooring, paint and bathrooms. They also installed a generator, replaced the air conditioning system, updated both the furnace and the rubber roof and flashing, and installed a waterproofing system. This exceptional home is located just blocks from Indiana University, Bryan Park and east side shopping and is located in the Rogers Binford, Jackson Creek and Bloomington South High School District.
