Perched on a gentle hill with private, romantic views, this iconic cross-gabled Bloomington home is a timeless masterpiece. With original wood floors and trim, soaring ceilings, and expansive windows, it’s full of character and light, offering lasting craftsmanship and endless potential. The current layout is perfectly livable, yet its multiple entrances and flexible configuration offer endless possibilities for reimagining the space. It is currently a two-bedroom home but could be converted to include additional bedrooms and bathrooms. The attic is also tall enough to be finished into living space. The private backyard offers abundant space for gardens, while the generous front porch serves as an outdoor living room. All within a downtown setting that blends everyday convenience with historic enchantment.
