Located in Bloomington's desirable Eastside neighborhood, this inviting home blends comfort, character, and local history. Just minutes from Indiana University and a short walk to parks, cafes, and local shops, it offers the best of Bloomington living. The Eastside is known for its peaceful atmosphere and eclectic mix of architectural styles-from classic cottages to updated mid-century homes. This home is especially unique, having once belonged to local legend and environmental advocate Lucille Bertuccio. Her spirit of community still echoes throughout the property. Hardwood floors run through most of the home, and a cozy fireplace adds warmth and charm. The layout includes a spacious wing ideal for an in-law suite or private guest quarters. The kitchen and bathrooms retain their original 1960s character, offering a retro vibe or a blank slate for your personal vision. Large windows bring in natural light, and the quiet back porch is perfect for relaxing. A rare Eastside gem that feels grounded, soulful, and full of potential. This property is being sold As-Is.
