1620 Lafayette Ave, Columbus, IN 47201

Lafayette Avenue by Donner Park is the heart of the historic district. With tree-lined sidewalks, this woodsy neighborhood offers walking trails, tennis courts, the playground, shelter house, pickleball, and the community pool. This home has a bright, cottage-like warmth and plenty of space with 1904 total sqft plus a 20x8 covered front porch, a screened-in back porch, and a 14x12 deck out back that faces a fully fenced yard with a few mature trees for shade. Inside, stairs lead to an unfinished attic that offers potential for future expansion. Kitchen updates include granite countertops, white cabinetry, tile backsplash, and a soft neutral palette that suits the character of the home. One of the bathrooms was redesigned to include a soaking tub, and a half bath was added for guests. The lower level has tall ceilings and is used as a cozy rec room/TV space, workout area, and an office/flex room with its own exterior access. Recent updates include newer windows (2022), water heater (2023), water softener (2023), and new interior paint and light fixtures. If you're looking for a home that feels warm, settled, and rooted in its neighborhood, this one is worth seeing.
