LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION!!!! Very close to Bloomington's west campus of fine public schools, Olson Elementary, Olson Middle, and Jefferson High School- all just a few blocks away. Nestled on a beautifully landscaped lot in one of Bloomington’s most desirable established neighborhoods, this impeccably maintained residence offers an exceptional combination of thoughtful updates, functional living spaces, and rare garage amenities. Fully remodeled in 2008 and presented in mint condition, the home blends timeless design with modern comfort throughout its spacious and highly livable floor plan.

The lower level offers exceptional additional living space, including a large family room, a fourth bedroom with egress, and a newer luxury bath designed with elevated finishes and comfort in mind. Two fireplaces with gas inserts add warmth and character to both levels of the home. This is a fully finished lower level with room to run. One of the property’s most special features is the stunning full-width screened porch overlooking the beautifully terraced rear gardens — a private outdoor retreat perfect for relaxing, entertaining, or enjoying the surrounding landscape. The setting is further enhanced by the unique location with no homes directly across the street, offering an uncommon sense of openness and privacy. Car enthusiasts, hobbyists, and buyers seeking exceptional utility will appreciate the oversized heated and insulated garage featuring an additional third stall, workshop space, abundant storage, and an oversized garage door designed to accommodate taller trucks, SUVs, and specialty vehicles — a truly rare offering in this price range and location.
