The extraordinary Anthony-Gros Louis House is ready for a new owner. Built by Italian stone artist Joseph Anthony and later occupied by IU Chancellor Kenneth Gros-Louis, this Spanish-Colonial home in Vinegar Hill / Elm Heights is designated "Outstanding" by the National Register of Historic Places. At 2,500+ finished square feet, most of it on one level, it offers four bedrooms, two full baths, and several gathering spaces. The home features period details, rare original glass tile, and gorgeous hardwood floors and woodwork. Hand-carved limestone is everywhere from exterior door frames to the garden statues and living room fireplace. The renowned Nancy Hiller built the kitchen cabinetry. Current owners worked with Springpoint architects to remodel the garden room, renovate the original bathroom, and do extensive electrical upgrades. The lower level is plumbed for a third full bathroom (commode room exists). Architectural plans for additional improvements, including previously approved parking, convey. Live your best life in a house that's truly meaningful!
