Listing Description

Crisp fall air, crunching leaves and a screened-in porch that wraps around the front and side of the home: this 1910 Indianola bungalow knows how to make a first impression. And the character only gets better from there. The rich original woodwork and beautiful narrow-plank hardwood floors set the tone.

The living room is anchored by a fireplace, now converted to gas for easy, cozy nights. In the formal dining room, the showpiece is a built-in china cabinet with original 1910 leaded stained glass, the kind of detail you simply can't buy new. The remodeled kitchen blends old and new with warm pecan cabinets and a pull-out cutting board that stays true to the home's era.

A fun turquoise sink adds a lovely pop of color. Three main-level bedrooms each offer nice-sized closets, and 1.5 baths are also on the main floor. Upstairs, the attic has some bonus finished space, with room to finish more for an office, studio or hobby space.

The practical boxes are checked too: a roof replaced within the last 3 years, leaf guard gutters, a garage built in 2003 and an asphalt driveway, all on a corner lot framed by mature trees and landscaping. More than a century of craftsmanship, warmth and charm. You will LOVE this one. Come see it!
